• 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. Produktuaren ezaugarriak

The Phocos CIS10 Solar Charge Controller offers the following key features:

• IP68 iragazgaitza diseinua: Suitable for outdoor use, resistant to water spray, rain, and condensation.
• Bolumen automatikoatage Detekzioa: Automatikoki 12V edo 24V DC sistema bolumena hautematen dutages.
• 5-Stage PWM Technology: Provides Soft Start, Bulk, Absorption, Float, and Equalization charging stages for optimal battery health and system performance.
• Bateriaren bateragarritasun zabala: Works with LifePo4, LTO, GEL, AGM, Lead-Acid, Calcium, and EFB batteries.
• Babes anitzeko ezaugarriak: Built-in protection against over-temperature, over-voltage, over-current, over-charging, over-discharging, overload, and short circuits.
• Compact and Thin Design: Maximizes solar power utilization with minimal self-power consumption.

4. Konfigurazioa eta instalazioa

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

1. Muntaketa: 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. Bateria konexioa: 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 edo 24V).

3. Eguzki-panelaren konexioa: Connect the solar panel cables to the controller's solar panel terminals. Observe correct polarity. The controller will begin charging the battery.
4. Kargatzeko konexioa (aukerakoa): 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. Egiaztatu konexioak: 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. Funtzionamendu-argibideak

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. S kargatzentages

• Hasiera leuna: Gradually increases current to the battery.
• Bulk karga: Delivers maximum current to rapidly charge the battery to approximately 80% capacity.
• Xurgapen karga: Bateria bolumen konstantean kargatzen dutage to bring it to 100% capacity.
• Karroza kargatzea: Bateria karga osoan mantentzen du bolumen txiki eta konstante bat emanez.tage.
• Berdinketa: 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. Mantentzea

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

• Ikus-ikuskapena: Aldian-aldian ikuskatu kontrolatzailea eta konexio guztiak kalteen, korrosioaren edo kableatu solteen zantzurik dagoen ikusteko.
• Garbiketa: If necessary, gently clean the exterior of the controller with a damp oihal. Ez erabili produktu kimiko gogorrak edo material urratzaileak.
• Bateria osasuna: Monitor your battery's performance. The controller's equalization feature helps maintain battery health for compatible types.

7. Arazoak

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

• No Charging/Load Output:
  • Egiaztatu kableatu guztien konexioak estu daudela eta polaritate zuzena dutela.
  • Ziurtatu eguzki-panelak eguzki-argia behar bezala jasotzen duela.
  • Egiaztatu bateria bolumenatage is within the operating range (12V/24V).
  • Check for any blown fuses in the system (if applicable).
• Tenperatura gaindiko babesa: 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.
• Gehiegizko bolumenatage/Voltage Babesa: 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.
