What Is A Solar Charger controller | Digital Msmd
Charge Controller is an important component in Battery based
Solar System and are not used in
Straight grid Tie Systems. The primary role is to manage charging the battery bank, prevent it from overcharging and many control the rate of the current and voltage at which it charges

Benifits of Solar Charger Controller
When We use a Solar Panel and we don't have a Solar Hybrid Inverter, then Charge Controller is needed to Charge the Battery. Apart from charging the battery, it also performs some other useful functions, such as
- Prevents Reverse Current
- Prevent from Battery Over Charge
- Some Charge Controllers also Protect the Battery from Electric Overload
- Battery Charging Status and Power Flow are also Visible
In the latest solar
Hybrid Inverter / UPS, it is Embedded inside and there is no need to install a separate
Charger Controller.
Types of Solar Charger Controller
Solar Charger Controller Their are two types of Solar Charger Controller
- PWM Solar charger Controller
- MPPT Solar Charger Controller
What is PWM Solar Charger Controller
PWM Charger Controller Stand for (
Pulse with Modulator).
PWM Charge Controllers are cheap and perfect for hot / dry environments but have less output than
MPPT Charger Controllers. They are suitable for small setup.

What is MPPT Solar Charger Controller
MPPT Charger Controller Stand for (
Maximum Power Point Tracking).
MPPT Charge Controller Output is 20-25% higher than
PWM Controller.
MPPT Charge Controllers are more expensive than
PWM.
MPPT Charge Controllers are very useful in cold.
