Solar Regulator SRP0120 / SRP0240 + - + - + -
THE SOLAR REGULATOR REDARC solar regulators ensure that the power supplied by your solar panels is at the right voltage to charge your house or auxiliary batteries. REDARC solar regulators are PWM controlled and incorporate automatic system voltage detection. Our regulators are suitable for charging up to two separate battery banks and come in both 10A and 20A models which are capable of charging either 12V or 24V battery systems.

SETTING MODES NOTE: The regulator will automatically sense the battery voltage. NOTE: A 24V battery system must have 24V solar panels and a 12V battery system must have 12V solar panels. 1. Press the Set button to start the mode select process. 2. Press the Set button to cycle through to the mode required. • Battery Type • Charge Priority • Charge Frequency 3.
SYSTEM SETUP INSTALLATION NOTES • • • • • • • • • • • Always connect the battery/s first (before the panel). Always ensure the connection to the battery terminals is sound, with as much surface contact between the battery terminal and the connection method (ie alligator clips) as possible. The regulator should be installed as close as possible to the battery/s. If 2 batteries are installed, they must be of the same chemical characteristics ie. both of Calcium content or both of AGM type.
