The FLEXmax family of charge controllers is the
latest innovation in Maximum Power Point Tracking
(MPPT) charge controllers from OutBack Power Systems.
The innovative FLEXmax MPPT software algorithm
is both continuous and active, increasing your
renewable energy yield up to 30% compared to non-MPPT
controllers. Thanks to 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).
Included in all of the FLEXmax
Charge Controllers are the revolutionary features
first developed by OutBack Power, including support
for a wide range of nominal battery voltages and
the ability to step-down a high voltage solar
array to recharge a low voltage battery. A built-in
back lit 80 character display shows status information
and logged system performance data for the last
128 days at the touch of a button. The integrated
OutBack network communications allow the FLEXmax
series charge controller to be remotely programmed
and monitored via a MATE system display and provides
unrivaled complete system integration.
FLEXmax MPPT Charge Controllers
are the only choice when you demand a high performance,
efficient and versatile charge controller for
your advanced power system.
