CHARGE CONTROLLERS

Smart Solar MPPT Charge Controllers

Using the latest, fastest technology, SmartSolar maximises this energy-harvest, driving it intelligently to achieve full charge in the shortest possible time. SmartSolar maintains battery health, extending its life.

Using the latest, fastest technology, SmartSolar maximises this energy-harvest, driving it intelligently to achieve full charge in the shortest possible time.

MPPT: By constantly monitoring the voltage and current output of your solar (PV) panels, MPPT technology ensures that every drop of available power is rinsed out of your panels, and harvested for storage. The advantage of this is most noticeable when the sky is partially clouded, and light intensity is constantly changing.

Steca PRS3030 PWM Charge Controllers

The Steca Solarix PRS 3030 is a high-performance charge controller designed to protect the batteries in your system. Robust and effective, it is perfectly suited to small off-grid solar systems where the input voltage is not too much higher than the system voltage.

Several LEDs in various colours give information on the battery‘s state of charge. Here, Steca’s latest algorithms are employed, resulting in optimal battery maintenance. The Solarix PRS charge controllers are equipped with an electronic fuse, thus making optimal protection possible. They operate on the serial principle, and separate the solar module from the battery in order to protect it against overcharging.

Omnipower 3 Phase Power Inverters

With the OmniPower Hybrid Inverters there are 3 options that you can select from such as:

GRID-TIE OPERATION without batteries. No need for a battery bank. PV Solar powers your load directly during the day while mains power supplies the loads at night or during periods of insufficient sunshine. Excess solar power can be fed into the grid.

HYBRID OPERATION with batteries. The Omnipower Hybrid Inverter saves you money by using battery energy first when PV energy is low. Only when the battery levels run low will the inverter extract AC power from the grid. The Omnipower Hybrid Inverter is also able to function as an off-grid inverter to provide continuous power even when no grid exists – the ideal power solution for remote regions.

BACKUP POWER with batteries. The unit can also function without PV panels as a pure back-up system. In the event of a power failure, the Omnipower Hybrid Inverter will provide instant backup power to the load from the battery bank. PV solar can be added at a later stage.
