Midnite Solar MPPT Charge Controller CLASSIC 200
The Classic is the only MPPT charge controller that has Arc Fault Detection, making this controller the safest controller available.
The Midnite Solar Classic line of MPPT charge controllers will substantially increase the flexibility, features and range currently found on MPPT controllers. The Classic is the only MPPT controller that has Arc Fault Detection, making this controller the safest controller available. With the Classic 150 ranging up to 96 amps, the Classic 200, 79 amps and the Classic 250, 63 amps, why would you need any other controller? MidNite Solar has doubled its factory floor space for production of the Classic line of charge controllers, making the Classic the only real "Made in America" charge controller.
Three models accommodate solar arrays with up to 250 VDC of operating voltage. Open circuit voltage (Voc) is based on operating voltage plus the battery voltage. The Classic250 model is good for 300 Voc on a 48V battery. The Classic150 is good for 175 Voc on a 24V battery bank.
They have MPPT modes for solar, wind or hydro with user adjustable power curves, and a learning mode for self optimization. No hub is required for stacking Classics to act as one large controller. They have two auxiliary outputs, a dry contact relay and a 12V output. Each unit includes snap-on covers and hole plugs for sealing openings in dusty or salt-air environments, but about 20% reduction in output will result when used in sealed mode.
The Classic has built-in Ethernet, USB and RS-232 ports for two-way communications. An internal IP address allows the Classic to be a mini web server when hooked up to broadband. It has 32 MB of memory for data storage. A wizard-driven setup covers battery bank size, string voltage, wind turbine selection, power and wire loss chart, PV breaker sizing and more.
