LYNCOM MODEL PV12T
PV SYSTEM LIGHTING
C O N T R O L L E R
Ly n c o m ’s micro p rocessor based charge controllers incorporate state-of-the-art design and
advanced pulse-width-modulation (PWM) battery charging operation, offering the highest
quality and more feature sthan comparably priced PV contro l l e r s .
Model PV12T is an advanced PV lighting system
c o n t roller for 12 volt solar systems rated 12
amps or less, designed for applications such
as sign lights, security or flood lights,
c a m p g round & re c reation facilities,
remote homes and marinas.
Field proven PWM design for battery charg i n g ,
reduces water loss, extends battery life, and
allows more daily amp-hours into the battery
as compared to traditional “on-off” contro l l e r s .
Model PV12T features an automatic load timer,
which senses dusk by the solar array and initiates the lighting time period,which is f i e l d
adjustable. When the timer circuit is ‘0’ (defeated), PV12T can also be used as a continuous
load controller with LV D .
The Model PV12T lighting timer operation can be pre-set from 0 to 10 hours continuously
adjustable or from dusk to dawn. A low battery voltage load disconnect circuit (LVD)
p revents battery over- d i s c h a rge during extended overcast periods.
The PV12T has three system status LED’s: system charging, battery full and battery low.
The reverse polarity protection circuit features a reverse polarity red LED for PV or battery,
ensuring proper hook up.
