2. Πληροφορίες Ασφάλειας

Σημαντικές οδηγίες ασφαλείας:

• Συνδέετε πάντα πρώτα την μπαταρία στον ρυθμιστή φόρτισης, μετά στον ηλιακό συλλέκτη και τέλος στο φορτίο. Αποσυνδέστε με την αντίστροφη σειρά.
• Ensure all connections are tight and secure to prevent excessive voltage drop and loose connections.
• Install the controller in a well-ventilated area, away from flammable gases.
• Μην αποσυναρμολογείτε ή επιχειρείτε να επισκευάσετε μόνοι σας τον ελεγκτή. Επικοινωνήστε με εξειδικευμένο προσωπικό για σέρβις.
• Wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) when working with batteries and solar panels.
• The controller is IP68 rated for water and dust ingress, but avoid submerging it for extended periods or exposing it to high-pressure water jets.

3. Χαρακτηριστικά προϊόντος

4. Ρύθμιση και εγκατάσταση

Follow these steps for proper installation of your Phocos CIS10 controller:

1. Βάση: Choose a suitable location for mounting the controller. Although IP68 rated, mounting in a shaded or protected area can extend its lifespan. Ensure adequate space for cable connections.
2. Σύνδεση μπαταρίας: Connect the battery cables to the controller's battery terminals first. Ensure correct polarity (positive to positive, negative to negative). The controller will automatically detect the system voltage (12V ή 24V).

3. Σύνδεση ηλιακού πάνελ: Connect the solar panel cables to the controller's solar panel terminals. Observe correct polarity. The controller will begin charging the battery.
4. Σύνδεση φορτίου (Προαιρετική): If using the controller for a DC load (e.g., solar light), connect the load cables to the controller's load terminals. Ensure correct polarity.
5. Επαλήθευση συνδέσεων: Double-check all connections for tightness and correct polarity before powering on the system.

The controller's compact design and integrated wiring simplify installation. Its IP68 rating ensures durability in various outdoor conditions.

5. Οδηγίες λειτουργίας

The Phocos CIS10 operates automatically once connected. It utilizes advanced 5-stage Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) charging technology to optimize battery charging and extend battery life.

5.1. Φόρτιση Σtages

• Μαλακή εκκίνηση: Gradually increases current to the battery.
• Μαζική χρέωση: Delivers maximum current to rapidly charge the battery to approximately 80% capacity.
• Χρέωση απορρόφησης: Φορτίζει την μπαταρία με σταθερή έντασηtage to bring it to 100% capacity.
• Χρέωση Float: Διατηρεί την μπαταρία σε πλήρη φόρτιση παρέχοντας μια μικρή, σταθερή έντασηtage.
• Εξίσωση: Automatically performs equalization every 28 days for calcium/EFB batteries to prevent sulfation and ensure cell balance.

5.2. Work Mode (Optional)

The CIS10 controller supports configurable work modes, such as time control and light control, which can be set using an optional external unit like the CIS-CU (sold separately). This allows for customized operation of connected loads, such as solar lights.

6. Συντήρηση

The Phocos CIS10 is designed for minimal maintenance due to its robust IP68 rating and epoxy-encapsulated PCB. However, periodic checks are recommended:

• Οπτική επιθεώρηση: Ελέγχετε περιοδικά τον ελεγκτή και όλες τις συνδέσεις για τυχόν σημάδια ζημιάς, διάβρωσης ή χαλαρής καλωδίωσης.
• Καθάρισμα: If necessary, gently clean the exterior of the controller with a damp πανί. Μη χρησιμοποιείτε σκληρά χημικά ή λειαντικά υλικά.
• Υγεία μπαταρίας: Monitor your battery's performance. The controller's equalization feature helps maintain battery health for compatible types.

7. Αντιμετώπιση Προβλημάτων

The CIS10 controller includes multiple built-in protections to prevent damage. If you encounter issues, consider the following:

• No Charging/Load Output:
  • Ελέγξτε όλες τις συνδέσεις καλωδίωσης για στεγανότητα και σωστή πολικότητα.
  • Βεβαιωθείτε ότι το ηλιακό πάνελ λαμβάνει επαρκή ηλιακή ακτινοβολία.
  • Επαληθεύστε τον όγκο της μπαταρίαςtagΤο e βρίσκεται εντός του εύρους λειτουργίας (12V/24V).
  • Check for any blown fuses in the system (if applicable).
• Προστασία από υπερβολική θερμοκρασία: If the controller becomes excessively hot, it may temporarily reduce or stop charging/output. Ensure it's not installed in an area with poor ventilation or direct, intense heat.
• Over-Voltage/Under-Voltage Προστασία: The controller will protect the battery from overcharging or deep discharge. If the battery voltage is too low, the load may be disconnected.
• Short Circuit/Overload Protection: If a short circuit or overload occurs on the load or solar input, the controller will temporarily shut down to protect itself and the system. Remove the fault and the controller should resume normal operation.

If problems persist, refer to the detailed specifications or contact Phocos customer support.
