TriStarTM Controllers

Morningstar’s TriStar Controller is a three-function controller that

provides reliable solar battery charging, load control or diversion regulation.This controller operates in only one of these modes at a time but two or more controllers may be used to provide multiple functions.The TriStar uses advanced technology and automated production to provide exciting new features at a competitive cost.The controller is UL listed and is designed for both solar home systems and industrial applications. Five year warranty.

• Rated for 45A or 60A, both at 12V or 24V or 48V
• Includes RS-232 communication port for customizing controller set points or data logging
• Optional on-board digital meter and remote meter
• Designed for mechanical fit on a Xantrex power panel or OutBack PSDC
• Provides extra bending room for large wires
• 100% solid state microprocessor controller

SunLightTM Solar Lighting Controllers

This controller performs both battery charging and light controlling functions by utilizing your solar array as a photocell. It turns your DC light on at dusk when the solar array voltage drops and will operate the light for a user selectable time period from 2 hours to dusk-to-dawn. Built-in temperature compensation, low voltage disconnect and manual test button greatly simplify system operation. Sunrise overrides lighting timer and the controller turns the light off. Five year warranty.

RV / Cabin Controllers

MARK Series controllers are cost effective, flush mount, battery charge controllers with digital system monitoring. Both MARK/15 and 22 provide efficient charging while protecting the batteries from damage due to overcharging.These controllers are designed for use in mobile or stationary PV systems, and offer complete system monitoring of battery voltage, solar charging current, and charge set-point calibration. Five year warranty.

Heliotrope

The DC3000 is a 30 amp, 12 volt DC,Series type pulse width modulated charge controller.  It utilizes power MOS FET technology to eliminate relays and subsequent failures associated with them.  The DC 3000 maintains the exact state-of charge (SOC) voltage by frequent on and off switching of the photovoltaic source and is actually two charge controllers in one.    

The DC 3000 has one circuit for the engine starting battery that is limited to 3 Amps with the SOC fixed at 13.4 volts.The house battery charging circuit can deliver up to 30 Amps with a selectable SOC from 13.2 VDC to 14.6 VDC.  The Liquid Crystal Display allows you to monitor the engine battery voltage, the house battery voltage, and the solar charging amperage.  Ten year limited warranty.
