Product Features

The AIMS Power 10 amp flush mount solar charge controller has a flush mount or flat design for flexible mounting options. The controller is compatible with 12V & 24V battery systems. This device will regulate the voltage coming from a solar panel (s), and safely charge the battery (s). Most commonly used in small solar systems.

FEATURES

  • Charging modes available for most common deep-cycle battery types. AGM (sealed lead acid batteries), GEL, Flooded, and Lithium. User may also use the customized parameter mode.
  • Automatically recognizes 12V or 24V battery banks
  • 5V 1A USB outlet provides charging for mobile devices.
  • Industrial grade design with reverse polarity protection for solar panels and battery
  • Flat mount with bracket or flush mount fixture included.

FIG 4 Wire Connection Sequences

During installation, follow the sequence below:

  1. Connect the positive battery wire followed by the negative battery wire.
  2. Make sure your solar panel (s) is fully covered to prevent electric shock. Connect the positive solar array output wire followed by the negative solar array output wire.
  3. Connect the DC load wiring to the DC load output (if applicable).

Controller Specification

  • The variable “n” is adopted as a multiplying factor when calculating parameter voltages, the rule for “n” is listed as: if battery system voltage is 12V, n=1; 24V, n=2.
  • For example, the equalize charge voltage for a 12V FLD (Flooded) battery bank is 14.8V*1=14.8V.
  • The equalizing charge voltage for a 24V FLD (Flooded) battery bank is 14.8V*2=29.6V.
