It regulates the voltage and current coming from the solar panels going to the battery.
Cam 2 controllers be connected to the solar panel.
To meet high power charging requirements several solar controllers can be connected in parallel to a battery bank with each controller connected to its own separate pv subarray.
You too can connect two solar panels into one system just like we do.
It allows you to connect two panels then connect them into one solar input.
Voltage drop in a single panel system as you can see in the calculation the voltage drop is 4 09 which will reduce the overall power delivered to the charge controller.
Here are a few of the terms that are important to know when solar charging two battery banks.
Solar charge controller keeps the solar panel from over charging your battery or batteries.
Connect two large solar panels to one battery.
A charge controller or charge regulator is basically a voltage and or current regulator to keep batteries from overcharging.
Are the solar panels compatible.
Here s something you can do.
For example your solar panel delivers 18 volts dc and 5 8 amps to the charge controller and the wire length is 40 feet.
80w panel permanenty mounted to roof of vehicle and can be connected via vitron 15a mppt controller connected to starter battery.
The combined power of the two panels would exceed the current handling capability.
The best way to find out is to contact your solar panel supplier.
Slide on canopy with ctek250s and 170ah agm solar panels permanently mounted to canopy doors.
Large off grid solar and battery backup pv systems often require greater charging than a single controller can provide.
Just check a few things first.
