AIMS 30 AMP Solar Charge Controller 12/24 VDC MPPT

Features:

The AIMS Power Solar Charge Controller product line provides quality and reliable voltage regulation for your solar panel array.  The AIMS MPPT charge controller uses an efficient algorithm to fully adjust with weather conditions to ensure that maximum power is harvested from the solar panel array throughout the day. With several size options, AIMS has a charge controller for every solar panel array. This 30 amp charge controller works with 12 & 24 Volt DC battery systems and provides real-time self diagnostics that reports Fault and Alarm conditions as they occur. An easy to use LCD display allows the user to quickly and easily navigate through the screens and also includes unique LED sequences. A battery temperature sensor, added protections and stackable design makes the AIMS Solar Charge Controller one of the best in the industry.

The LCD displays key information such as:

• battery voltage and capacity
• solar panel voltage and wattage
• solar panel charging current
• battery charge mode
• DC load (current)
