Tristar TS-45 & TS-60 Solar/Turbine Charge Controllers

These charge controllers are able to work in 3 different modes, with Solar they can work in either Charge Control, Diversion Control or Load Control. With Turbines they work in Diversion & Charge Control with Dump Loads.

For use in Battery-Based systems, these rugged charge controllers offer protection against overcharging when used with our solar panels or wind turbines. The Tristar TS-60 is capable of handling charging or dumping currents of 60A, the Tristar TS-45 is able to handle 45A, both are suitable for use with battery banks of 12/24 and 48Volts.

In order to use these controllers with your Turbine and Battery Bank, you will require a suitable dump load for connection to the Tristar. These dump loads are shown below, and can be bought separately if required. Dump Loads are not necessary for Solar Panel only systems.

Dump Loads are necessary for most turbines as the turbine must be kept loaded (producing power) at all times, otherwise they can run too fast and suffer damage without a suitable load.

We can also supply 48v Standard 2.25" BSP Direct Replacement 1KW Immersion Heaters for use with our turbines.

The following number of dump loads are required with each of the following battery voltages.

For 12V systems use 2 Dump Loads (in parallel)
For 24V systems use 1 Dump Load
For 48V systems use 2 Dump Loads (in series)

Tristar TS-45 Charge Controller

Optional Extras

Tristar Meter TS-M and TS-M Remote

Key Features and Benefits

The meter will display a great deal of information about the TriStar controller and the operation of your system. In addition, the meter enables manual functions and controller diagnostics. These capabilities will increase your confidence that the system is working properly and will help you to improve system reliability, battery life, and system performance. It is worth the time getting to know your meter!
The TS-M Remote is a self contained meter with 30m of cable to allow you to monitor the Controller at a distance (you can have both!)

Xantrex C40 & C60 Charge Controllers

For use in Battery-Based systems, these rugged charge controllers offer protection against overcharging when used with our wind turbines. The Xantrex C60 is capable of handling charging currents of 60A, and is suitable for use with battery banks of 12V and 24V only. The C40 can handle charging currents of up to 40A, and is suitable for use in 48V battery charging applications which use our turbines.

In order to use either of these controllers with your Turbine and Battery Bank, you will require a suitable dump load for connection to the C40 or C60. These dump loads are shown under Dump Loads, and can be bought separately if required.

The following number of dump loads are required with each of the following battery voltages.

For 12V systems use only the C60 and 2 Dump Loads (in parallel)
For 24V systems use only the C60 and 1 Dump Load
For 48V systems use only a C40 and 2 Dump Loads (in series)
