connection of Dc Load Direcctly to the Battery (Load > 10A)
If the DC load draws > 10A, connect it directly to the battery through appropriate fuse
(locate fuse within 7" of the battery Positive Terminal).
Separate MSK-10A charge controller Manual is available at www.samlexamerica.com
to help you make full use of the charging system.
Layout and functions of controls, LeD monitoring and operational details of the Charge
Controller are given below. Please refer to fig. 3.2.
5A. teMPeRAtURe SenSoR: senses ambient temperature for temperature
compensation for charging and discharging.
5b. StAtUS LeD "Pv":
LeD coLoR AnD PAtteRn StAtUS
GreeN - Steady “CHArGING”
energy from PV panel(s) is available at the PV
panel(s) input terminals and voltage > 6V is
also available simultaneously at the battery
Terminals.
GreeN - fast flashing “bATTerY oVer VoLTAGe”
- over voltage disconnect protection
has been activated due to high
voltage of ≥ 16V / 32V at the battery
output Terminals
- PV panel(s) and load have been
disconnected.
5C. StAtUS LeD “BAtt”
LeD coLoR AnD PAtteRn StAtUS
GreeN - steady “NorMAL”: battery is in bulk stage - normal state of charge
of up to 80%
GreeN - slowly flashing “fULL”: battery is in either absorption (boost) or equaliza-
tion or float stage and pwm regulated voltage charging is
active. State of charge is nearly full / completely full - 80%
to 100%
orANGe - steady “UNDer VoLTAGe”: battery under voltage warning signal-
ing has been activated at ≤ 12v / ≤ 24v. output is still avail-
able at Load Terminals
Will be reset automatically when voltage rises to 12.2V /
24.4V and LeD will go back to steady green from steady
orange
