OptiMate Solar DUO charges and maintains ChargeSaves dead batteries from 4 V with its unique pulse charge.The fastest charge is delivered as the "intelligent charge control" selects between pulse and continuous charging depending on sunlight strength. Intelligent maintenance continues the next day if the battery has maintained the charge overnight, otherwise the program returns to the OPTIMIZE step. MONITORINGBattery status is displayed every 3 seconds. Ready indicator for STD, Hi-Performance AGM and Lithium LEP batteries. Draws less than 0.5mA during monitor mode.Automatically switches to CHARGE when solar power is sufficient. MOUNTINGThe OptiMate DUO charge and monitor controller is separate from the solar module and can be mounted near the vehicle or battery for easy tracking of charge and maintenance progress. The solar panel must be mounted and angled to receive direct sunlight. The range / distance between the battery and the panel is 315 cm / 124″. To extend, use OptiMate cable extensions O-03, O-13 or O-23 and insert them between the solar panel and the OptiMate DUO charging monitor.

The following values ​​are calculated and displayed under microprocessor control: - Current solar power 0 - 999 W (watt) - Current solar power 0 - 60.0 A (ampere) - The geographic and weather-dependent influences show up immediately and unmistakably. This also applies to the orientation of the sun, partial shading or soiling of the solar modules. - Current solar battery voltage 7 - 32.0 V (volts) Allows conclusions to be drawn about the battery status (flashing warning display at under or Overvoltage of the battery) - Invited solar capacity 0 - 9999 Ah (ampere hours) - Invited solar energy 0 - 9999 kWh (kilowatt hours) The energy generated by the solar modules (Wh and kWh) and that charged into the battery Capacity (Ah) are measured, added up and displayed, even over days and weeks. The display values ​​can be individually reset to "zero" at any time for your own statistical purposes: Are the solar modules shaded or dirty or is something wrong? How much energy does my solar system actually deliver?In order to be able to answer these questions, VOTRONIC offers the LCD solar computer S, which is simply connected to the VOTRONIC solar charge controller of the SR and MPP series and immediately provides the required information. It is also possible to connect the LCD solar computer S to the controller at a later date, since the VOTRONIC solar charge controller already has are ready to plug in and provide the required signals. The connection is therefore kept extremely simple. The measured values ​​are clear and easy to use at the push of a button for better control and use of the solar system shown on the display. The display is backlit (switchable) and also from greater distances and very easy to read under lighting conditions. The LCD solar computer S is designed as a panel version to match the VOTRONIC module system and is both optically and also mechanically (uniform height 85 mm) to the other display modules. Small front panel dimensions and the particularly small installation depth of just 22 mm allows installation at almost any point. If the device is not installed countersunk, stands a corresponding add-on housing is available in our range of accessories. The connection to the solar controller is ready to plug in with the supplied 5 m long connection cable, which can be extended by a further 5 m.

Charging converter High charging capacity even on short journeys or full charge on longer journeys. The voltage is brought to the required level (increased or decreased) in order to be able to precisely charge the on-board battery with the optimal charging characteristic. Compensates for line losses and voltage fluctuations in the alternator, such as occur continuously to a considerable extent in Euro 6 vehicles (intelligent alternators). Compact design, low weight (high-frequency switch mode technology) and powerfully dimensioned power components for safe operation. A significantly better energy balance of the on-board battery without intervention in the starting circuit If the 12 V consumers are supplied, they are protected against overvoltage and voltage fluctuations. Overcharging of the battery is impossible because the charging voltage is regulated in such a way that it is free of peaks Fully automatic operation: the device is constantly connected to the batteries and is automatically activated by the running alternator of the vehicle. The batteries are not discharged when the engine is not running. Parallel and buffer operation: If the battery is used at the same time, it continues to be charged or is kept full. The device automatically calculates and monitors the adjustment of the charging times. Monitoring-free charging: Multiple protection against overload, overheating, overvoltage, short circuit, malfunction and back-discharge of the battery through electronic regulation up to complete separation of device and battery. Built-in on-board network filter: Problem-free parallel operation with other charging sources (EBL, chargers, motor and fuel generators, solar systems) on one battery. Charging cable compensation: voltage losses on the charging cables are automatically compensated. Connection for battery temperature sensor (included in delivery): In the case of lead batteries (acid, gel, AGM), the charging voltage is automatically adjusted to the battery temperature, results in better full charging of the weaker battery in the cold, and in summer temperatures unnecessary battery gassing avoided. LiFePO4 batteries: battery protection at high and especially at low temperatures <0 ° C. Charging aid for deeply discharged lead batteries: Gentle pre-charging of the (lead-acid, gel, AGM) battery up to 8 V, then powerful support for the battery if consumers are still switched on.

Loaders 1 "Gel": charging program for gel batteries, characteristic curve IU1oU2Matched to closed, gas-tight gel / dryfit batteries with fixed electrolyte, which generally require a higher charging voltage level and longer U1 holding times in order to achieve short charging times with particularly high capacity storage and to avoid long-term battery "starvation".2 "AGM": Charging program for AGM / fleece batteries, characteristic curve IU1oU2Designed for charging closed, gas-tight AGM (Absorbent-Glass-Mat) batteries in lead-fleece technology, which require a particularly high U1 level with coordinated holding times for full charge and then a moderate U2 level to maintain charge (Plate and round cell technology).4 "UNIVERSAL": Charging program for lead-acid / wet / AGM batteries, characteristic curve IU1oU2Universal program for charging and maintaining the charge of acid batteries in vehicles (mixed mobile / stationary). With a medium U1 level, it still offers short charging times, a good charge factor and good acid mixing for open and closed, low-maintenance, maintenance-free standard, drive, lighting, solar and heavy-duty batteries, as well as AGM batteries with a normal U1 level.Li "LiFePO4": Charging program for lithium batteries, characteristic IU1oU2Charging program tailored to lithium LiFePO4 batteries with their own BMS and prescribed or built-in protective circuit.
