Description
This solar charge regulator is designed to efficiently convert the output from a solar panel to a level suitable for charging a 12V lead-acid battery. It has an output to drive a 12V load with a current consumption of up to 10A, as well as a load disconnect function to protect the system and battery against under-voltage and over-current. Five LEDs indicate the charging state, battery condition and load state.
The Nemtek Solar Charge Regulator 12V 10A 140W is designed to efficiently convert the output from a solar panel to a level suitable for charging a 12V lead-acid battery, while
Mean Power Point (MPP) technology ensures that the maximum available power is harvested from the solar panel.
The regulator provides an output to drive a 12V load with a current consumption of up to 10A, as well as a load disconnect function to protect the system and battery against under-voltage and over-current. Five LEDs indicate the charging state, battery condition and load state.
This LED solar regulator offers advanced MPP technology for over 90% efficiency when used with a 140Watt solar panel. It can also be used with solar panels sizes from 20Watt to 200Watts making it very flexible.
Product Code: SOL-REG140

WARNINGS AND LIMITATIONS OF THE NEMTEK SOLAR CHARGE REGULATOR 12V 10A
This system may pose a fire hazard if not properly installed,
Always take care not to create a short circuit between opposite polarities,
This solar regulator employs positive switching. Never connect the positive outputs to a common point,
It is highly recommended to install a 20A fuse in line with the positive polarity cable from the regulator to the battery,
Do not attempt to charge any battery other than a 12V lead-acid battery with a capacity that is matched to the solar panel and load,
Always ensure sufficient ventilation for the regulator and battery. The regulator should always be mounted on a vertical surface to ensure proper heat dissipation of the metal back plate,
Ensure all terminal screws are tightened firmly,
Keep the unit away from excessive moisture.
