AIMS Power 40 Amp MPPT Solar Charge Controller

AIMS Power 40 Amp MPPT Solar Charge Controller Overview This solar battery charge controller by AIMS Power features a smart tracking algorithm using MPPT charging technology and has less power loss performing at 97.5-99% efficiency, maximizing energy harvest. The tracking algorithm is automatic and varies with weather conditions. This charge controller also has temperature compensation protection using the included battery temperature sensor. Charges 12, 24, 36 and 48 volt solar systems with multistage charging technology and adjusts according to battery type. The AIMS charge controller includes LED indicators to show charging status and faults. An LCD displays key information such as battery voltage, solar panel voltage, solar panel charging current and charge mode. Users are able to revise and set the default parameters according to system design. There is also a RS485 connection block for computer monitoring of all charge controller functions. Backed by a 2 year warranty.   AIMS Power 40 Amp MPPT Solar Charge Controller Features MPPT technology: Maximum Power Point Tracking produces maximum available power from PV array to battery bank utilizing peak power of the I-V curve Quality heatsink cooling – no fans needed and no thermal derating Battery type selector and user defined charging voltage 4 stage charging PV input, battery output and load control ports Stackable Reliable electronics, over engineered components generating less heat Very efficient up to 99% Low self consumption Thermal design rugged case Over temp protection Overload, short circuit, high and low voltage protection RS485 port for computer monitoring CE, ETL to UL1741 and RoHS compliant Marine coated Mounting holes   Warranty This product comes with a 2-year warranty.   AIMS Power 40 Amp MPPT Solar Charge Controller Specifications Electrical Specifications PV Operating Voltage 15-150Vdc@12V 34-150Vdc@24V 50-150Vdc@36V 60-150Vdc@48V Rated PV Input 12V – 500 Watts 24V – 1000 watts 36V – 1500 watts 48V – 2000 watts Other Electrical Specifications Maximum battery current: 40 amps DC load port: 40 amps Max PV open circuit voltage: 150Vdc Self power consumption: <4 watts Efficiency: 97.5% Protections: overload, short circuit, high voltage, high temperature, low voltage and auto correct Monitoring: RS485 port for computer monitoring Optimal cooling case design – built for extreme conditions Charging Specifications Battery types: gel, sealed, AGM, flooded, lithium, user defined (adjustable voltage) 4 Stage charging: bulk, absorption, float and equalize Bulk charge voltage: sealed 14.4V, AGM/gel 14.2V, flooded 14.6V, user defined 10-15V Float charge voltage:  sealed/AGM/gel 13.7V, flooded 13.6V, user defined 10-15V Equalize charge voltage: sealed 14.6V, AGM/gel 14.8V, flooded 14.8V, user defined 10-15V Low voltage reconnection: 12.5V Low voltage disconnect voltage: 10.5V (10.5-12.5V adjustable) Mechanical Specifications Enclosure: IP43 protection, metal Cooling: heatsink Humidity: 100% non-condensing Temperature compensation: -5mV⁰C / 2V with BTS Temperature range: -25⁰C to 60⁰C or -13⁰F to 140⁰F Conformal coated for marine environments Wire knockouts: 1.25” Unit weight: 8 lbs.
