2 VOLT SOLAR CONTROLLER 4 STAGE CHARGING P/No.
WARNINGS – IMPORTANT PLEASE READ • SC110 is designed for indoor use only • Use SC008 or SC015 for outdoor applications • Do not disassemble the controller. Take to a qualified person if the unit requires repairing. • Lead acid batteries can be dangerous. Ensure no sparks or flames are present when working near batteries • Eye protection should always be used. Never short circuit the battery • Given sufficient light solar panels always generate energy even when they are disconnected.
FEATURES • 4 Stage charging ensures the battery is charged to the optimum level • Advanced MCU control pulse width modulated (PWM) technology, high efficiency operation • Programmable for Gel, AGM, Conventional lead-acid (WET) and Calcium Batteries • Built in regulator to prevent your battery from being overcharged. Overcharging occurs when the charge voltage is unregulated.
WIRING CONNECTIONS To protect the battery and solar panel, it is recommended that you place an inline fuse on the positive wire of both the ‘Solar’ and ‘Battery’ circuits. A 20A fuse is required and should be installed as close to the battery/solar panel as possible. The Solar Controller has 4 terminals which are clearly marked ‘Solar’ and ‘Battery’. There is a (12V) and earth (GND) terminal for each circuit. Refer to the wiring diagram below. Correct Wire Size: P/No.
Press BATTERY TYPE button and hold for 3 seconds to go into your battery type selection mode, the battery type you select will be shown on the LCD meter, the default setting is AGM Battery; the controller will automatically memorize your battery type setting. Caution: Incorrect battery type setting may damage your battery. When the controller powers on, the unit will run ‘self-qualify’ mode and automatically show below items on LCD before going into charging process.
Absorption Charge (Stage 2) – Constant voltage charging and battery is over 85%. Equalization Charge* (Stage 3) – Only for WET battery or Calcium battery type, when the battery is deeply drained below 10V, it will automatically run this stage to bring the internal cells as an equal states and fully complement the loss of capacity (Gel and AGM battery do not run Equalization charge). Float Charge (Stage 4) – When the battery is fully charged it is maintained at a safe level.
OPTIONAL EXTERNAL DEVICE The controller provides an optional devices (not included P/No. SC1TMP).
