Phocos CA 10 Charge Controller LVD 10A, 12V

The new version of the Phocos CA solar charge controller is especially designed for small solar systems with the need of a low battery disconnect feature. With the Phocos CA solar charge controller the regulation circuit provides series regulation to prevent single cell overheat problems of short-circuited solar panels. The terminal section features  a rugged  16 mm2 terminal block.

The melting fuse of the predecessor has been replaced by a fully electronically protected circuit. The Phocos CA solar charge controller also features 2 LEDs and 1 Duo-LED to display charging in progress, battery SOC, load disconnect and overload status. Leisure and rural electrification systems are the typical applications for the Phocos CA solar charge controller.

The Phocos CA charge controller is a perfect solution for cost-sensitive systems which require state-of-the-art system management. The compact case is now similar to the well-known Phocos CML charge controller.

The Phocos CA10 solar charge controller features:
- Electronically regulated charging regime: Boost and float charge
- Deep discharge protection
- PWM series regulation, no panel short circuit
- Integrated temperature compensation
- Fully electronically protected:
- Panel surge voltage
- Wrong polarity at panel or battery
- Overload and short circuit at load
- 3 LED indications: Charge Status, SOC, LVD, Overload! Short Circuit
- Common positive allows grounding
