These controllers provide PWM with integrated temperature compensation, low-battery load disconnect and a comprehensive display. Battery state of charge, charge and discharge current, and faults are clearly displayed on an LCD in a bar graph.
These consume only 4mA at night. The deep discharge protection function can be set up to three different modes: voltage controlled, SOC controlled or adaptive (fuzzy logic).
CXN controllers have a built-in data logger. Data can be accessed by a PC by using the CXN-USB interface converter. Data includes maximum and minimum battery voltage, state of charge at beginning and end of day, amp-hours produced by PV array and more. Data available for 7 days.
Other features are audible warnings and programmable nightlight function.
Phocos new CXN charge controllers can be use din systems where the array, battery and load negatives are grounded.
