Thank you for purchasing the solar charge controller TCS3. Please confirm the
voltage of the battery and the solar panel is in accordance with the working
voltage of the controller (24V) before you use the controller. The TCS3 is
specially designed for solar charge controlling and battery discharge
controlling in automatic gate opener system. It is integrated with multiple
safety protection for battery, such as: over charge protection and over
discharge protection.
Capacity: 10 Amps
Wire connection
The battery is only charged by solar panel (the adapter is not used)
Firstly connect the battery to the controller and then connect the solar panel
to the “SOL” terminal of the controller. Connect the “BAT” terminal of Control
Board of gate opener to the “LOAD” terminal of the controller by the extension
cord as wiring diagram above. Don’t use the cord which is smaller than 0.75mm2
(18 AWG) when the length is longer than 22.5m (75’). The 2mm2 (14 AWG) or 3.3
mm2 (12 AWG) is strongly recommended for 30m (100’) or 45m (150’) extension
distance. Please note the polarity of all the appliances while connecting.
