Alcapower 10A PWM Charge Controller 12V/24V with Automatic Recognition, Dual USB Output and Thermal Protection for Photovoltaic Systems

The Alcapower PWM 10A charge controller is a reliable and efficient solution for managing small off-grid photovoltaic systems. Designed to operate with 12V or 24V battery systems, the device automatically recognizes the nominal voltage, ensuring quick and safe configuration. Thanks to PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) technology, the controller optimizes the battery charging process, preserving their lifespan through precise management of float and constant charge voltages.

The device can handle a maximum photovoltaic power of 120W for 12V systems and up to 240W for 24V systems, operating with input voltages ranging from 15V to 55V depending on the configuration. The operating structure is designed to offer maximum flexibility: the user can independently adjust the threshold parameters for load disconnection and reconnection, as well as the constant charging voltage, making the device adaptable to different battery types and specific application needs.

Safety is a cornerstone of Alcapower's design: the regulator integrates an overheat protection system, which automatically activates between 90°C and 105°C to prevent damage to components, and resets as soon as the temperature drops to 60°C. Its robust construction is confirmed by an IP22 protection rating and an extreme operating temperature range, ranging from -40°C to +50°C, making the unit suitable for a variety of environmental contexts. Positive grounding and 90% operating efficiency ensure optimal energy management.

In addition to its regulation functions, the device includes two 5V/2.1A USB Type-A ports, useful for directly powering small electronic devices without the need for additional inverters or transformers. Weighing just 150g, the regulator is easily installed in electrical panels or control boxes, making it an ideal choice for campers, cabins, solar LED lighting systems, and small home storage systems.
