Product Info :  

The HRSi conveniently brings together a Rutland Windcharger charge regulator with an input for up to 160Watts of photovoltaic panels in a single easy to install device. Multi-stage charge control delivers appropriate charge levels required to ensure your batteries get the maximum power they are able to retain and remain float charged.

• Make the most of renewable power produced
• Prevent battery damage through overcharging
• Can help to extend life of your windcharger
• Use with Rutland 504, 913 or FM910-3 plus up to 160W of solar panels

 

PWM for fine charge control

The HRSi monitors battery voltage and uses PWM to prevent overcharge. As peak voltages are reached the HRSi tapers the current from the wind & solar chargers gradually reducing charge to float stage level

This feature gradually reduces the speed of the turbine to an eventual “idle” thus extending the working life of the windcharger. As the battery discharges the wind turbine responds by increasing speed to deliver more power.

Solar power is also tapered in the same way.
