Eco-Worthy 10A Solar Charge Controller User Manual
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
- Make sure your battery has enough voltage for the controller to recognize the battery type before first installation.
- The battery cable should be as short as possible to minimize loss.
- This controller is suitable for 12V Sealed, GEL, Flooded and Lithium battery.
- The charge controller is only suitable for regulating solar modules. Do not connect other DC or AC sources to the charge controller.
PRODUCT FEATURES
- Built-in MCU chip to achieve intelligent charge and discharge control.
- Overcharge, over discharge, short circuit, reverse current protection for battery.
- PWM charge management chip avoids damage to the solar panel.
- Normal direct charge mode and floating charge mode lengthen the system’s service life.
- The intuitive LED indicates the current battery charge and discharge status.
- With USB port, it can charge mobile phones, tablet and other DC devices.
SYSTEM CONNECTION
- Connect the battery to the charge controller
- Connect the solar module to the controller
- Connect DC loads to the charge controller (optional)
- The order reverses when uninstall! An improper sequence order can damage the controller!
OPERATION
