General Information
Customizable charging voltages
The MPPT Charge Controller utilizes Maximum Power Point Tracking technology to extract
maximum power from the solar module(s). The tracking algorithm is fully automatic and
does not require user adjustment. MPPT technology will track the array’smaximum power point
voltage (Vmp) as it varies with weather conditions, ensuring that the maximum power is
harvested from the array throughout the course of the day.
The Rover Series charge controllers are intelligent controllers suitable for various off-grid solar
applications. It protects the battery from being over-charged by the solar modules and
over-discharged by the loads. The controller features a smart tracking algorithm that maximizes the
energy from the solar PV module(s) and charge the battery. At the same time, the low voltage
disconnect function (LVD) will prevent the battery from over discharging.
The Rover's charging process has been optimized for long battery life and improved system
performance. The comprehensive self-diagnostics and electronic protection functions can prevent
damage from installation mistakes or system faults.
In many cases, the MPPT charge controller will “boost” up the current in the solar system. The
current does not come out of thin air. Instead, the power generated in the solar panels is the
same power that is transmitted into the battery bank. Power is the product of Voltage (V) x
Amperage (A).
