Dear Clients,

Thanks for selecting the Win series solar controller. Please take the time to read this user manual, this will help you to make full use of many advantages the controller can provide your solar system.

using and so on. Read it carefully in your own interest and pay attention to the safety recommendations in it please.

This manual gives important recommendations for installing and

1, Safety instructio ns and waiver of liability

1.1 Safety Instructions

WARNING: Danger of explosion from sparking. Danger of electric shock.

CAUTION:Indicates a critical procedure for safe and proper operation of the controller.

1)There are no user serviceable parts inside the controller. Do not disassemble or attempt to repair the controller.

2)Keep the children away from batteries and the charge controller.

(1)

It is advised to read this manual carefully before the product is installed and put into use. There are no user serviceable parts inside the controller. Do not disassemble or attempt to repair the

(2)

controller.

(3)Install the controller at well ventilated places, the controller's heat sink will be very hot during operation. (4)Refer to the specifications provided by the manufacturer of the battery to ensure that the battery is suitable

for use with this product. The battery manufacturer's safety instructions should always be observed.

(5)Protect the solar modules from incident light during installation, e.g. cover them. (6)Ensure that the connection cables are provided with fuses or circuit breakers. (7)Please make sure to switch off all connections of the PV array and the fuse/breakers which close to the

battery before the controller installation and adjustment.

(8)Power connections must remain tight to avoid excessive heating from the loose connection. (9)Do not open the controller casing. Only the terminal cover may be removed by a technical professional for

installation.

2,Overview

Win series solar controller is based on an advanced maximum power point tracking (MPPT) technology developed, dedicated to the solar system, the controller conversion efficiency up to 98%.

The controller can rapidly track the maximum power point(MPP) of PV array to obtain the maximum energy of the panel, especially in case of a clouded sky, when light intensity is changing continuously, an ultra fast MPPT controller will improve energy harvest by up to 30% compared to PWM charge controllers.

2.1 Outstanding features

Innovative Max Power Point Tracking(MPPT) technology, tracking efficiency >99.9% Full digital technology, high charge conversion efficiency up to 98% LED indicator for easy to read charging state and battery information

12/24V automatic recognition Liquid, Gel, AGM and Lithium battery for selection

The separate ports for remote temperature sensor, make battery temperature compensation more accurate

Four stages charge way: MPPT, boost, equalization, float

Automatic over-temperature power reduction function

Dual automatic restriction function when exceeding rated charging power and charging current Android APP version for Bluetooth communication Common negative design Perfect EMC & thermal design

Full automatic electronic protect function

2.2 MPPT

MPPT profile

The full name of the MPPT is maximum power point tracking. It is an advanced charging way which could detect the real-time power of the solar Modulel and the maximum point of the I-V curve that make the highest battery charging efficiency.

Current Boost

Under most conditions, MPPT technology will "boost" the solar charge current.

MPPT Charging：Power Into the controller (Pmax)=Power out of the controller (Pout) Iin x Vmp= Iout x Vout * Assuming 100% efficiency. Actually, the losses in wiring and conversion exist.

If the solar module's maximum power voltage (Vmp) is greater than the battery voltage, it follows that the battery current must be proportionally greater than the solar input current so that input and output power are balanced. The greater the difference between the Vmp and battery voltage, the greater the current boost. Current boost can be substantial in systems where the solar array is of a higher nominal voltage than the battery as described in the next section.

High Voltage Strings and Grid-Tie Modules

Another benefit of MPPT technology is the ability to charge batteries with solar arrays of higher nominal

voltages. For example, a 12 Volt battery bank may be charged with a 12-, 24-, 36-, or 48-Volt nominal off-grid solar array. Grid-tie solar modules may also be used as long as the solar array open circuit voltage (Voc) rating will not exceed the maximum input voltage rating at worst-case (coldest) module temperature. The solar module documentation should provide Voc vs. temperature data.

Higher solar input voltage results in lower solar input current for a given input power. High voltage solar input

strings allow for smaller gauge solar wiring. This is especially helpful and economical for systems with long wiring runs between the controller and the solar array.
