Ultra-fast maximum power point tracking
An extremely fast MPPT controller improves the energy yield by up to 30 % compared to PWM charging controllers
and by up to 10 % compared to slower MPPT controllers
, especially in overcast conditions when the light intensity is constantly changing.
Battery Life: intelligent battery management
If the solar charge controller is not able to charge the battery to its full capacity within a day,
the status of the battery constantly switches back and forth between "partially charged" and "end of discharge".
This operating mode (no regular full charging) damages a lead-acid battery
within a few weeks or months.
The Battery Life algorithm monitors the state of charge of the battery and, if necessary
, The Battery Life algorithm monitors the state of charge of the battery and, if necessary
it raises the threshold for disconnecting the load day by day (i.e. the load is disconnected earlier)
until the energy gained is sufficient to charge the battery to almost 100%.
From this point, the threshold for disconnecting the load is modulated
so that charging to almost 100% is achieved approximately once a week.
