Qwik Install
STEP 1: Prepare a foundation to provide level support for the enclo­sure.
STEP 2: Place enclosure on the foundation. Install 8 batteries in the box. Use a rope tied to the battery tabs to lower batteries into the box. Connect all 8 batteries in series configuration for either 24VDC or 48VDC (See Wiring Diagram Below and near the end of this booklet)
STEP 3: Install DIN rail adapters to the
60A MPPT Battery Charge Controller.
STEP 4: Install DIN rail to enclosure using the two screws provided. Install MPPT battery charge controller to DIN Rail.

STEP 5: Remove the black cover from the MPPT controller to access
the wire connection screws. Connect the temperature probe to the con­troller and place it on the batteries for temperature compensated charg­ing.
STEP 6: Remove the fuses from the battery cables and connect the battery cables to the batteries and the MPPT Charge Controller BAT+ and BAT– connections.
STEP 7: Make sure to set the AC input voltage selector on the 72V 900W AC/DC Power Supply to either 115 or 230 depending on your AC voltage source. The 900W Power Supply can sit in the bottom of the
enclosure next to the batteries. Connect the Power Supply DC output
wires to the MPPT Charge Controller PV+ and PV– inputs. The Brown wire is V+. Make sure to observe proper polarity.
STEP 8: Connect normal loads to the MPPT Charge Controller load output. Maximum load is 20A Max. If connecting an inverter or motor, it’s best to connect directly to the batteries.
STEP 9: Double check connections and then re-install the fuses in the battery cables. You may see a spark when connecting the fuse. This is normal. Once the MPPT charge controller is connected to the batteries,
it’s display should turn on and you will see status on the screen.
Warning: Battery should always be connected first and discon­nected last from the MPPT charge controller.
STEP 10: Route any external wires
through the cable glands on the back of the enclosure. Tighten the cable glands on the wires to make weatherproof connec­tions. Plug unused holes using the sup­plied hole plugs. If any cable glands are installed but unused, cut a short piece of
wire and tighten in the cable gland to seal
it.
If desired, attach a security cable/chain through the features on the back of the enclosure to an existing pole/tree.
STEP 11: To turn on the load output, long press the SET button on the MPPT charge controller. Turn on the 72V 900W AC/DC power supply. The MPPT charge controller will show PV input is active and the batter­ies will start charging after 1-2 minutes. When the AC/DC power supply is charging, both LED will be red and the unit fan will come on. This is
normal.
STEP 12: The enclosure comes with a thermostatically (45C) con­trolled ventilation fan. Connect this fan directly to the batteries.

TECH CORNER
Additional Information you may find useful
Solar Ready: The system is solar ready. You may need to add a 100V 30A blocking diode between the solar panel and the PV input to avoid reverse current from the 72V AC/DC power supply going back into the solar panels.
Batteries: The batteries are maintenance free and should last about 5 years in normal operation. The charge controller will automatically do a balance charge on the batteries periodically.
Enclosure: We recommend making extra keys in case the enclosure keys are lost.
