5. Postavljanje i instalacija
Slijedite ove korake za pravilnu instalaciju vašeg solarnog regulatora punjenja.
5.1 Montaža kontrolera
- Odaberite suho, dobro prozračeno mjesto, zaštićeno od direktne sunčeve svjetlosti, visokih temperatura i vlage.
- Ensure there is sufficient space around the controller for heat dissipation, especially around the cooling fins.
- Mount the controller vertically on a solid surface using the provided screws.
5.2 Ožičenje
Refer to the wiring diagrams below for correct connection sequence. Always connect in the following order:
- Spojite bateriju: Connect the battery to the controller's battery terminals. Ensure correct polarity (+ to + and - to -). The controller will automatically detect the battery voltage.
- Spojite solarni panel: Spojite solarni panel na PV terminale kontrolera. Osigurajte ispravan polaritet.
- Spojite DC opterećenje (opciono): Spojite DC opterećenje na terminale opterećenja kontrolera. Osigurajte ispravan polaritet.
To disconnect the system, follow the reverse order: disconnect load, then solar panel, then battery.
