The circuit is intended to control the charging of a 12v 7ah battery by a 10w, 24v volt solar panel.
Could you explain in more detail how this circuit is supposed to work? Where did you get it?Manoj Sahu said:View attachment 195711
The circuit is intended to control the charging of a 12v 7ah battery by a 10w, 24v volt solar panel.
A solar charge controller circuit is a device that regulates the amount of voltage and current coming from a solar panel into a battery. It works by continuously monitoring the battery's state of charge and adjusting the flow of energy accordingly. This helps prevent overcharging and damage to the battery, ultimately prolonging its lifespan.
It is important to choose a solar charge controller circuit that is compatible with the voltage and current output of your specific solar panels. Some controllers are designed for specific panel types, so it is best to consult with a professional or read the specifications carefully before making a purchase.
The maximum capacity of a solar charge controller circuit refers to the maximum amount of current it can handle. This varies depending on the specific model and can range from a few amps to hundreds of amps. It is important to choose a controller with a capacity that can handle the maximum output of your solar panels.
A properly functioning solar charge controller circuit should regulate the flow of energy from the solar panel to the battery, preventing overcharging and maintaining a healthy state of charge. You can check its performance by monitoring the battery's voltage and current, and ensuring that it is within the recommended range for your specific battery.
It is recommended to use a solar charge controller circuit for all solar panel systems, regardless of size. Even with a small system, fluctuations in voltage and current can occur, and a controller helps to regulate this and protect your battery from damage. It is a small investment that can greatly benefit the lifespan and performance of your solar panel system.
