Product type
A PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) charge controller is a device used in solar power systems to regulate the voltage and current coming from solar panels to batteries. It ensures that batteries are charged efficiently and prevents overcharging, which can damage the batteries. PWM charge controllers are typically made of electronic components that switch the current on and off rapidly to control the power flow.
| Input Voltage Range | 12V to 48V |
| Output Current | 10A to 60A |
| Efficiency | Up to 95% |
| Operating Temperature | -20┬░C to 60┬░C |
| Protection Features | Overcharge, over-discharge, and short circuit protection |
When selecting a PWM charge controller, consider the system voltage and the maximum current output required for your solar panel setup. It's important to specify the battery type and capacity, as well as any specific features like temperature compensation or display options. Additionally, inquire about certifications and compliance with local regulations to ensure safety and reliability.

PWM controllers are simpler and less expensive but less efficient than MPPT controllers, especially in low light conditions.
Yes, but ensure compatibility as lithium batteries may require specific charging profiles.
Calculate the total current output of your solar panels and choose a controller that can handle that current.
Generally, they require minimal maintenance, but regular checks on connections and performance are recommended.
It may damage the controller; always match the input voltage to the controller's specifications.
Most are not waterproof; look for models with appropriate ingress protection ratings for outdoor use.
