Help needed with PWM solar charge controller settings.

Featured Replies

Good day,

My off grid setup is 2 x 330w solar panels 

60amp pwm charge controller 

1 x 205ah valve regulated lead acid gel deep cycle battery.

Solar tracking mount 

My question is the charge controller only has a float setting which is HVD High voltage disconnect which you can set between 13 to 15v

The battery specs are for floating charge set to 13 6 to 13 7v

For Cycle use set 14.6 to 15v

What would be the best setting to use?

As the controller refers to this as float setting should i set the HVD to 14 6v as per battery instructions for cycle use or should i set the HVD to 13 8 for floating charge.

Any advise would be greatly appreciated
