All PBR Regulators have a 5 year performance warranty. Bare wire connections under the PBRT charge regulator terminal blocks are acceptable. The battery voltage will gradually drop back to a lower voltage, at which point the regulator will release the PV input, and charging will resume. When the battery reaches the pre-set low voltage level at a given temperature, the regulator shuts the load down until the battery voltage is restored to one volt above the low voltage level. The settings of the programmable dip switches determine the operational time of load.
Time adds together when mulitple switches are placed in the on position.
When installing the PBRT charge regulator, locate or mount the unit in or near the battery storage location. This will allow the charge regulator to approximate the temperature of the battery system and ensures that temperature compensation takes place. Wiring Instructions 1. Ensure that the photovoltaic array is properly wired to match the nominal operating voltage of the regulator and battery system. Identify the positive and negative leads of the PV array prior to connecting the charge regulator.
