The Principle to Size MPPT Solar Charge Controller? 0000105423 00000 n
The short method for sizing a PWM style charge controller is to take your total wattage of your array and divide that number by the nominal voltage of your battery bank. With these numbers I thought two 75/15 controllers would be sufficient, but I now understand the current rating on the controller refers to the 12V battery side. With the recent introduction of the Radian Series Inverter/Charger, OutBack now offers an ideal solution for advanced Grid/Hybrid applications and full flexibility for grid-interactive and off-grid installations. The traditional method for string sizing with OutBack charge controllers no longer applies to the SkyBox product.
