Maximize Energy Harvest and Improve Battery Life

The PT-100 is a Maximum Power Point Tracker (MPPT) charge controller designed to harvest the maximum available energy from the PV array and deliver it to the batteries. The PT-100’s MPPT algorithm finds the maximum power point of the array and operates at this point while regulating the output current and battery voltage to fully charge the battery.

Features

High Efficiency: The PT-100 provides higher than 99% conversion efficiency and uses less than two watts of power in nighttime mode.

MPPT: Maximum Power Point Tracking technology for increased PV power output efficiency.

Voltage Options: Compatible with 12, 24, or 48V battery systems with automatic detection of system voltage. The PT-100 will produce up to 100 amps regardless of battery voltage.

Supports a Large PV Array: A single controller supports a large PV array up to 6600W. Larger PV arrays may be used because the PT-100 is current limited to 100 amps for maximum harvest.

Optimal Battery Charging: Automatic battery temperature compensation using an included external temperature sensor for optimum battery charging, even during extreme temperature changes.

Multi-stage Charging: Maximizes system performance and improves battery life.

GFDI: Integrated PV GroundFault Detection and Interruption/ Indication, with pre-fault leakage/ diagnostic metering.

LED Indicators and Screen: Multiple LED indicators and large digital LED screen on front panel for easy-to-read system information.

On-site Updates: The PT-100’s software can be updated on site.

Extensive Electronic Protection: Over-temperature protection, power derating when temperature is high, PV short circuit and high PV input shutdown, output overcurrent protection and night-time back-feed (reverse current) protection.

AFCI: An integrated PV ArcFault Circuit Interrupter detects, indicates, and extinguishes series arcs. The AFCI is designed to meet the new National Electric Code (NEC) Article 690.11 requirements.

Convenient Installation: Run all of the wiring to the unique, remain-inplace wiring box with ease prior to installing the full PT-100 unit.

Easy MP and MMP integration: The PT-100 is designed to work with a Magnum Panel (MP) or MiniMagnum Panel (MMP). It provides room and access to PV and battery disconnect breakers.

Even More Functionality with the Optional Remote

Built-in programmable auxiliary relay for device control.

Internal data logging functionality keeps energy harvest information and battery Ahr/Whr data up to 255 days.
