Fusing NEC Maximum Current for different Copper Wire Sizes AWG Max. Tighten all terminals and inspect any loose, broken, or burnt up connections. Check wiring going into the charge controller and make sure there is no wire damage or wear. Check that controller is mounted in a clean, dry, and ventilated area. Maintenance For best controller performance, it is recommended that these tasks be performed from time to time. PV is over-voltage Use a multi-meter to check the voltage of the panels. Make sure the battery voltage is not exceeding the rated specification of the charge controller. Battery is over-voltage Use a multi-meter to check the voltage of the battery. Disconnect any loads connected to the battery to allow it to charge. System Status Troubleshooting Description Battery is low-voltage Troubleshoot Use a multi-meter to verify the rated battery voltage. Setting Battery Type Simply hold the gray button for approximately 7 seconds until the LED flashes. Users set the battery type, and leave the rest of the work to the charge controller. Operation of this controller is very simply. Operation After connecting the battery to the charge controller, the controller will turn on automatically. NEVER connect solar panel to charge controller before the battery.īluetooth Module Communication (optional) Temperature Sensor (optional, not polarity sensitive) Place the sensor close to the battery 09 RS-232 Port (optional accessory) ⑤ ⑥ ⑦ ③ ② ① ⑧ Installation WARNING Connect battery terminal wires to the charge controller FIRST then connect the solar panel(s) to the charge controller. Remote Temperature Sensor Port (optional accessory) 6. This can happen when storing a lithium battery pack in a discharged state for any length of time as self-discharge would gradually deplete the remaining charge. The protection circuit of lithium battery will typically turn the battery off and make it unusable if over-discharged. Lithium Battery Activation The Wanderer PWM charge controller has a reactivation feature to awaken a sleeping lithium battery. Boost Charge: When the battery has charged to the Boost voltage set-point, it undergoes an absorption stage which is equivalent to constant voltage regulation to prevent heating and excessive gassing in the battery. It uses 100% of available solar power to recharge the battery and is equivalent to constant current. VOLTAGE NIGHT BULK CHARGE BOOST FLOAT NIGHT TIME Bulk Charge: This algorithm is used for day to day charging. Key Features Optimized for 12 VDC system voltage 30A charging capacity. The controller comes equipped with fully comprehensive self-diagnostics and electronic protection functions to prevent damage from installation mistakes or system faults. ![]() Integrating highly efficient PWM charging, the Wanderer increases battery life and improves system performance. General Information The Wanderer is an advanced charge controller for off-grid solar applications and can be used with a 12V battery or battery bank.
