Morningstar TS-MPPT-30 TriStar 30 Amp MPPT Charge Controller with RTS
TS-MPPT-30 TriStar MPPT 30 Charge Controller , 30 amp, includes RTS
Morningstar TS-MPPT-30 TriStar 30 Amp MPPT Charge Controller with Remote Temperature Sensor
Solar Controller with MaximumPower Point Tracking
Morningstar's TriStar MPPT solar controller with TrakStar Technology™ is an advanced maximum power point tracking (MPPT) battery charger for off-grid photovoltaic (PV) systems up to 3kW. The controller provides theindustry's highest peak efficiency of 99% and significantly less power loss compared to other MPPT controllers.
The TriStar MPPT features a smart tracking algorithm that maximizes the energy harvest from the PV by rapidly finding the solar array peak power point with extremely fast sweeping of the entire I-V curve.
