INSTRUCTIONS
Important! Read the user instructions carefully before use. Save them for
future reference.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
- Connect with correct polarity, red lead to positive terminal (+), black lead to negative terminal (-). Incorrect connection can damage the product.
- Never short-circuit the leads.
- Always connect in the following order: battery→ charge controller→ load → solar panel.
- Always disconnect in the following order: solar panel→ load →battery.
- The output current from the charge controller must not exceed 10 A.
- The only waterproof component on the product is the solar panel.
- Allow the solar panel to charge the battery for 3 days before using the product.
- The product is not intended to be used by persons (children or adults) with any form of functional disorder, unless they are supervised or have received instructions concerning the use of the product by someone who is responsible for their safety.
- Do not expose the battery to naked flames or high temperatures: risk of explosion.
- Recycle the product at the end of its useful life in accordance with local regulations.
- Do not dismantle the product or attempt to modify, or repair it.
- Disconnect the solar panel before connecting or moving the charging regulator.
- Check that the power connections are firmly tightened to minimize loss of power and the risk of overheating.
- Only charge batteries with rated data that matches the rated data of the charge controller.
- One or more batteries can be connected.
- Risk of electric shock – both the solar panel and the connected electrical equipment can generate high voltages when the charge controller is working.

INSTALLATION
Connect in the following order: battery-→charge controller-→ load -→solar panel. Disconnect in the reverse order.
NOTE:
- The switch must be in the OFF position when conneding the charging regulator. Connect the positive and negative leads with the correct polarity.
- If an inverter is used it should be connected directly to the battery, not to the load tenninals on the charge controller.
USE
INTENDED USE
This product is a solar cell controller that regulates the use of energy from the small-scale production of electricity. It stores the produced electricity in a rechargeable battery. The battery can then supply DC equipment with power. The product enables the use of electrical equipment at places without a mains supply, such as at remote cottages, or for camping and outdoor life.
HOW TO USE
- Connect the cable from the rechargeable battery to the battery terminal on the solar cell controller (marked with battery symbol), with the correct polarity.
- Connect the electrical equipment to be supplied with power to the load terminal (marked with bulb symbol) on the controller.
- Connect the cable from the solar panel to the solar panel terminal (marked with solar panel symbol) on the controller with the correct polarity.
CHARGE CONTROLLER
This is a digital solar cell controller with pulse width modulation (PWM). It is cost-efficient and easy to use, with functions such as:
- 3-stage intelligent PWM charging – boost charging, equalisation charging and float charging.
- 3 battery alternative – sealed, gel and wet-cell battery
- status lights for battery status
- battery temperature compensation
- USB port for charging electronic equipment
- button setting of battery type and load output
- electronic safety functions.
SETTINGS
Output (load) ON/OFF
When the controller is supplied with voltage, press the button (6) to connect and disconnect the voltage to the output/load.
Setting of battery type
- Switch to settings mode by pressing the load switch (6) for 5 seconds until the battery status light starts flashing.
- Select the required type of battery by pressing the load switch (6).
- The set type of battery is saved automatically if the button is not pressed for S seconds, and the status light stops flashing.
PROTECTIVE FEATURES
Battery overvoltage, disconnection
When the battery voltage reaches the overvoltage limit the controller stops the charging to protect the battery from damage.
Battery under voltage, over-discharge protection
When the battery voltage reaches the under voltage limit for over discharging the controller stops the discharging of the battery to protect the battery from over-discharge damage.
Overcurrent protection
The power supply to the connected load is switched off when the current
exceeds the rated current 1.25 times. The user must then reduce the connected
total load and press the load switch to reconnect the load.
Short-circuit protection
The power supply to the connected load is switched off if there is a short
circuit in the connected load (a short circuit is considered to have occurred
if the current is 3 times more than the rated current). The user must then
rectify the short circuit and press the load switch to reconnect the load.
Transient voltage suppression
The controller is protected from moderate transient overvoltage. This is
only a basic protection – if powerful transient overvoltages are expected, for
example in areas subject to frequent thunder storms, the protector should be
supplemented with an external transient voltage protector.
