20 Amp PWM Solar Charge Controller Voyager
Elevate your solar power system with the Renogy Voyager 20A PWM Waterproof Solar Charge Controller, a class-leading controller designed for efficiency, stability, and durability. With an IP67 rating, this controller is perfect for outdoor use, offering protection against water spray, rain, and condensation. Let’s dive into the features that make the Voyager stand out:
Efficient, Stable, and Safe Charging
Advanced PWM Technology
Equipped with smart PWM technology, the Voyager provides 4-stage charging to protect your battery, ensuring efficient and stable charging. It offers multiple electronic protections for batteries, controllers, and PV systems, prioritizing safety and reliability. This advanced technology enhances battery longevity by preventing overcharging and ensuring optimal energy transfer.
Compact and Lightweight Design
Easy Installation
Designed with portability and convenience in mind, the Voyager is compact and lightweight, making it ideal for installations with limited space. Its low weight of 0.55lb and compact dimensions make it easy to install in various applications. Whether you’re upgrading an existing system or setting up a new one, the Voyager’s design simplifies the installation process.
Common Positive Ground
Enhanced Compatibility
The Voyager features a common positive ground configuration, enhancing charging safety and compatibility with a wide range of systems. This makes it a versatile choice for different solar setups, ensuring smooth integration and reliable operation.
Temperature Monitoring and Compensation
Precision Charging
With a Remote Temperature Sensor Port, the Voyager accurately measures battery temperature in real-time, enabling precise temperature compensation for stable and consistent charging performance. This feature is essential for maintaining battery health in varying environmental conditions, providing peace of mind for your energy system.
Extremely Low Self-Consumption
Energy Efficient
Despite its powerful performance, the Voyager consumes minimal energy, with only 0.22w/h or 1.92kmh/365days in a 12V system. This ensures maximum efficiency while charging your battery, making it an eco-friendly choice for your solar power system.
Automatic Voltage Detection
Smart System Recognition
Supporting both 12V and 24V systems, the Voyager automatically detects system voltage when connected to Gel, AGM, or Flooded battery banks. For charging lithium batteries, manual voltage setting is required. This intelligent feature ensures that your solar power system operates efficiently and accurately, regardless of the battery type.
Note: For optimal performance, connect solar panels in parallel to maintain PV output voltage efficiency. Avoid installing the controller in sealed enclosures with flooded batteries to prevent gas accumulation and explosion risks.
