POWERTECH ZM9126 Canvas Blanket Solar Panel with Charge Controller

INTRODUCTION:

Please ensure that you have read the product manual and instructions in full before using this product. Failure to do so many result in incorrect operation and potentially impact the performance of the product. This product converts natural sunlight into DC electricity. It is designed to charge a 12V battery.

BOX CONTENTS:

  • 1 x 400W Canvas Blanket Solar Panel
  • 1 x 30A Solar Regulator
  • 2 x Leads

CAUTION/WARNING:

  • For optimum performance, protect the solar cell from dust, dirt, and other debris.
  • Use and store the product in a dry and ventilated location.
  • Do not use in flammable or explosive areas.
  • Stop use immediately if any wires become loose or electronic components are exposed.
  • Do not pick panel up directly by the solar cells.
  • Use the gap between solar cells to pick up the panel.
  • Do not stand or walk on the solar panel.

HOW TO USE:

  • Unfold the solar panel.
  • Place the unfolded solar panel in a position that receives direct sunlight, facing to the sun. Ensure that no shadows are covering the solar cells.
  •  Tilt the solar panel at a suitable angle. This can be the same as your local latitude (additional support may be necessary, not supplied).
  • Connect the solar panel to the solar charge controller before connecting battery clamp lead to the solar controller.

HOW TO CHARGE A 12V BATTERY :

  1. Connect the battery to the solar charge controller.
  2. Connect load to solar charge controller.
  3. Connect solar panel to solar charge controller.
  4. Reverse this order when disconnecting.
    Note: Heavy loads should not be connected to the battery.

TROUBLESHOOTING:

Error Code Cause Solution

E01

| Low battery voltage, load off| Change the battery or change a new battery.


E02

| ****

Overload, load off

| Decrease the load, the use (-) button to turn on the load.

Load will automatically turn on after 2 minutes.


E03

| ****

Load short-circuit, load off

| Remove the short-circuit load, use (-) button to turn on the load.



E04

| ****

Over-voltage of battery, load off

| Check the connection of battery, and whether if the capacity of battery is too low, check if there is another charger connected to the battery.



E05

| ****

Solar panel over current, controller stops charging

| Check whether the power of solar panel has been over powered, decrease the panels and then

the controller will start charging automatically after 2 minutes.
