Morningstar Charge Controllers

Solar charge controllers are used to deliver power from solar panels to system loads and to solar batteries. When the batteries are nearly full, the charge controller will taper off the charging current to maintain the required voltage to fully charge the batteries and keep them topped off. By regulating the voltage, the charge controller protects the batteries from overcharging and undercharging. More advanced charge controllers can monitor temperature and adjust battery charging accordingly. This is referred to as temperature compensation. The battery is charged to a higher voltage in cold temperatures and a lower voltage in warm temperatures. Many charge controllers also include on-site and remote data monitoring.

Morningstar Solar Charge Controllers use one of two technologies: Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) or Pulse Width Modulation (PWM).  MPPT can convert all the solar electricity voltage possible into usable electricity. This maximum conversion efficiency is ideal for areas where seasonal weather and shading conditions cause wide variations in solar collection. Morningstar TrackStar MPPT technology is the industry’s reference standard. PWM is used in areas with consistent sunlight, minimal shading and no physical space limitations. These controllers are ideal for use in systems where extracting every last watt of electricity possible from a PV army is not a concern.
