Microcare MPPT Solar Charge Controllers are proudly South African. The Microcare MPPT utilizes PWM and microprocessor technology to provide greater than 96% efficiency from your solar panels. The actual charge current increase you will see over standard PWM controllers varies primarily with module temperature and battery voltage. In comfortable temperatures, current increase typically varies between 10 to 25%, with 30% or more easily achieved with a discharged battery and cooler temperatures. The units are fully programmable and may be run in parallel to share the charge current. Using the comunication port, one unit can be installed as the Master and the others as slaves. A remote sensor is available for accurate voltage and temperature measurements.

What you can be sure of is that the Microcare MPPT charge controller will deliver the highest charge current possible for a given set of operating conditions. The ability to step down a high voltage solar array to a low voltage battery can save you money by reducing the size of the cabling required and making the installation less expensive.

The MICROCARE MPPT REGULATOR is designed to interface between the solar panel, the batteries and the load. The tracker will always find the optimum power point of the solar panel system to ensure that maximum power is extracted from the solar panel and put into the batteries.

Using this system up to 30% more power can be extracted from the solar panel than using shunt or series pass regulators. The regulator is also able to charge batteries of a lower voltage than the solar panel. By means of  LEDS  it will show the status of the system.  It also incorporates various charge modes which will automatically increase the charge level to the batteries when first starting up or if the battery voltage falls below the min volts. The  regulator will read the nominal battery voltage. This unit is designed to run on a 12/24 volt battery set. It will then read the solar panel voltage and automatically find the optimum power point. The charging , battery values and boost modes are then automatically adjusted.

Via links the load voltage disconnect can be selected, whether the battery is lead acid or sealed, and whether the unit operates as a normal load shedder or as a day/night switch.
