HPV-30DR Solar Charge Controllers from Heliotrope PV

Heliotrope PV manufactures solar charge controllers. The HPV-30DR solar charge controller has the capability to charge engine battery banks as well as the house battery simultaneously. The solar charge controller charges by employing a three-stage charging methodology. This three-stage charging methodology includes bulk, taper and float charging methods. The HPV-30DR solar charge controller produces maximum power of 500 watts.

The external voltage sensing feature of this solar charge controller from Heliotrope PV helps to measure the actual battery voltage, while the current limit on output characteristic prevents fuse blowing. The HPV-30DR solar charge controller is capable of adjusting the charge set point according to the battery temperature and thereby prevents excess water loss. The charge points can be set with the aid of potentiometers. This solar charge controller from Heliotrope PV has an overall height, width and diameter of 11 inches, 8 inches and 2.5 inches, respectively. The voltage limit on output characteristic of the controller prevents accidental shut of inverters, when there is a high increase in voltage. The HPV-30DR solar charge controller also consists of light emitting diodes (LEDs). These light emitting diodes indicate the status of the solar charge controller. The solar monitor of the HPV-30D charge controller has three different types of switches that include an on/off switch, a three position selector switch and a momentary button switch.
