Outback FM60 Charge Controller
OutBack Power FlexMax60 FM60-150VDC MPPT Charge Controller The FLEXmax family of charge controllers is the latest advanced improvement in Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) charge controllers from OutBack Power Systems. The ground-breaking FLEXmax MPPT software algorithm is both continuous and active, it increase your photovoltaic array power yield up to 30% compared to non-MPPT controllers. With the technology of active cooling and intelligent thermal management cooling, the FLEXmax charge controllers can operate at their full maximum current rating, 60 Amps or 80 Amps respectively, in ambient temperatures as high as 104�F (40�C). The FLEXmax Charge Controllers are the revolution. Developed by OutBack Power, its features include support for a wide range of nominal battery voltages and the ability to step-down a higher voltage solar array to recharge a lower voltage battery bank. A built-in, backlit 80 character-display shows the current status and logged system performance data for the last 128 days at the touch of a button. The users can also remote control the charge controllers through the integrated OutBack network communications.
