| Blue Sky Solar Boost 3024iL, MPPT Charge Controller, 30 Amp 12/24 Volt, no display (SB3024DiL)
Product Description:
Patented Maximum Power Point Tracking technology allows Solar Boost
3024iL to increase charge current up to 30% or more compared to
conventional charge controllers. Don’t waste your money by throwing PV
power away!
Solar Boost 3024iL’s advanced fully automatic 3-stage charge control
system will properly charge flooded lead-acid, AGM and GEL batteries
resulting in improved battery performance with less maintenance. The
dual 30/40 amp rating will deliver at up to 30 amps in 24 volt systems,
or up to 40 amps in 12 volt systems. An automatic or manual equalize
function is also provided to periodically condition flooded lead-acid
batteries. To further enhance versatility, a user configurable
auxiliary output and Blue Sky Energy’s advanced IPN™ network interface
are also included.
The user configurable auxiliary output can serve as either a 20 amp
load controller, or as a 2 amp auxiliary battery charger. The load
control feature can be used to limit excessive battery discharge in
unattended remote systems, whereas the auxiliary battery charge feature
is ideal for charging a separate battery such as the engine battery in
an RV. The auxiliary output can also provide fully adjustable dusk to
dawn lighting control.
Blue Sky Energy’s advanced Integrated PowerNet™, or IPN Network,
allows up to 8 IPN capable charge controllers to communicate with each
other and operate as a single machine rather than separate charge
controllers. The IPN network also allows networked controllers to share
an optional battery temperature sensor and remote display. The IPN
network does not require a display or other special communication
hardware to operate.
How Do Solar Boost Charge Controllers Increase Charge Current?
Solar
Boost charge controllers increase charge current by harvesting more PV
power. A conventional charge controller simply connects the PV module
to the battery when the battery is discharged which can artificially
limit how much power a PV module can deliver. Patented Solar Boost MPPT
technology operates the PV module at it’s optimum voltage where it can
produce the greatest amount of power rather than at battery voltage.
The higher power extracted from the module is then provided to the
battery as increased charge current. The actual charge current increase
you will see 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. What you can be sure of is that Solar
Boost charge controllers will deliver the highest charge current
possible for a given set of operating conditions. Features
