Isolated PV systems exposed to extreme weather/environmental conditions (streetlights, navigation buoys, etc.) have increased risk for damage to the power electronics. In order to assure reliable battery protection under such conditions, Phocos developed a fully encapsulated charge controller to prevent corrosion: CIS.
The CIS-10 is an industrial-grade solar charge controller that is suitable for all practical PV applications. It conforms to the IP68 protection system. Four-stage PWM-charging is combined with low-voltage disconnect, flexible load timer functions, and a multi-LED system status display. The CIS-10 comes with a charge output and a control output for dimmable ballasted lamps. The CIS-10 has no moving parts, switches, or buttons.
Features
- Can be ordered with one output as on-off switch and another as output with dimmer function (CIS)
