Description
Features
- The PWM electronic charge regulator tapers charge to the battery by gradually limiting windcharger current to avoid battery overcharge.
- When regulating the Windcharger turbine speed is gradually reduced until finally running at just a slow “idle”
- As fully charged batteries are more likely to occur in high winds this slow mode of operation is safer and reduces wear
- A solar panel with a maximum rating up to 100W may be connected in parallel with the windcharger.
- Note that a blocking diode must be fitted to the solar panel to prevent it from drawing current from the windcharger
- Built-in blocking diode protects the HRS and Windcharger from other charge sources to the same battery, eg engine charging
- The HRS regulator can charge a single bank of batteries in parallel
- 2 Tri-colour LED’s indicate,
- Approximate level of battery voltage between 11-14V.
- Charging status – either charging, regulating or both charging and regulating
- Regulating cut-in voltage 13.8V, Maximum charge voltage 14.4V (+/- 2%)
- Simple wired connection via 3 flying leads
- Net Weight: 0.12Kg Packed Weight: 0.2Kg
- Carton Dimensions:160×110x60mm
