DC Low Voltage Disconnect (LVD)
The PBRL Charge Regulator incorporates a DC load controller that can automatically detect low battery voltage and disconnect power to the DC load. After the battery bank has sufficiently recharged, the PBRL automatically reconnects the DC load. This feature can significantly increase life of the battery bank. |
Durable Construction
Specifically designed for developing nations and sustainable development projects, ETA controllers are extremely rugged. ETA mounts the regulator's circuit board in an anodized aluminum heat sink and then encapsulates it in an epoxy-resin. This ensures that the regulator circuitry is protected from the environment. |
Overload & Transient Surge Protection
All regulators provide an overload rating of twice the specified input current for 20 seconds to accommodate the "edge of cloud effect". Solid state transient absorbing avalanche diodes protect the charge controller from lightning induced surges and inductive load spikes. |
Solid State Electronics
ETA Engineering's solar charge controllers have no moving parts that can fail. To ensure safety, ETA excludes the use of mercury switches from all of our regulator designs. |
High Reliability
These designs use High Safety Factors to minimize stress on all critical components, which gives exceptional life. Products using this design installed in the late 1980's are still going strong. |
High Efficiency
The regulators contain blocking diodes chosen for minimum forward voltage drop which maximizes charging current from the PV module(s). The static current draw is only about 2 milliamps plus the current to drive any LED that may be on. |
Easy to Install
PBR regulators are pre-set to operate with your particular battery type. The unit requires no programming or adjustment. Just make your hard-wire connections and begin charging! |
5 Year Warranty
ETA Engineering stands by its products. All PBR Regulators are backed by a 5 year unconditional warranty. |
