Solar Module Controller (SMC-02)
The SMC-02 is an efficient solar module controller that can be used to keep a sealed lead acid battery topped off with a solar panel while handling up to 40 watt size.
Designed for use in harsh places, the SMC-02 is Class 1 Div 2 approved. The controller features built in battery and solar module temperature compensation.
Programmable charge rate up to 2 amps (4 amp and 6 amp models available as well).
The SMC-02 automatically steers the voltage to the point of maximum power output of the solar panel even though the output is varying due to light intensity changes. Standard solar controllers will simply stop charging the battery when illumination levels are below the chargers full power requirements.
