Tycon TS-SC24-40N-MPPT MPPT Solar Charge Controllers
The Tycon Solar® TS-SC24-40N-MPPT and TS-SC24-60N-MPPT solar controllers are MPPT (Maximum Power Point Tracking) temperature compensated battery charging controllers with included Bluetooth interface. The battery temperature probe cable is included. The controllers are auto-ranging to accommodate 12V and 24V battery systems. They are designed to charge Sealed (AGM), GEL, Flooded, and Lithium batteries. They also have a USER setting for customizable battery charge settings. They have an integral OLED Blue display that shows PV Volts, Battery Volts/Current/Watts/Temperature, Load Amps/Watts. The display also shows charge state. The display dims automatically to save power.
They have multiple load operating modes which can be set through the Mobile or PC app. On/Off Manual Mode, PV Voltage Control Mode, Dual-Time Control Mode, PV + Time Control Mode. Load modes are not settable through the front panel. Default is ON/Off Manual Mode.
The 20A or 30A load output has a soft start feature so it can smoothly and reliably power up high capacitance loads.
The load can be turned on/off from the front panel or via the PC or Mobile Apps. They have full electronic protections for short circuit, reverse current, over-power, over-voltage, over-charge, over-discharge and over-temperature. The built-in over-discharge protection and low self-consumption ensures the battery is not over-discharged, which greatlyincreases the life of the batteries. All protections are auto-recovery.
The units are protected against lightning strikes with TVS diode protection. They operate over a wide industrial temperature range.
Connections are via 6 screw terminals for wire size up to 4AWG. The controllers are internally fused for protection, but we recommend always using a 63A to 100A external fuse or circuit breaker between the controller and the battery. There are four 3mm threaded holes for mounting permanently to a flat plate. There are also brackets included for mounting to a wall or DIN rail using the Tycon #DIN-CLIPKIT-UNI DIN rail adapter bracket kit.
The MPPT controllers can be connected via the RS485 interface for parallel operations, feeding multiple solar arrays into a single battery bank.
