The Magnum PT-100 will do 100 amps at 12 volts. It can be run stand alone /
not on the Magnum network. Settings are via DIP switch. LED front panel
display that cycles through displaying various parameters. Well built and
simple units.

I agree that 12 volts needs to be changed and best to go to 48 nominal and
have been there myself making suggestions. We,re all good and friends here.

Oh well maybe I'm completely full of Hot air on this fine Friday
morning. Sorry, I just assumed it could be set to 12v. II just checked
the specs, and it actually is only compatible with 24 v and up battery
banks.
Personally I run the PV numbers on a calculator and when I multiply 100
amps x

How do you program a FM 100 to 12 volts, l do not see that's programmable
to be set to do that

This is a classic off grid conundrum we've dealt with for decades.
Generally it take more money than the client wants to spend. 12 v is a
serious limitation, not just for the PV array, but the inverter and
battery layout as well. What inverter do they have? How old is it?
What battery are
Hi Jay, as I see it there are two problems with parallel. One is the
burnout of the FET in one of the controllers, and the other is the "not
knowing what the other is doing. The burn out is caused by the capacitors
in one CC supplying a surge current to the other CC. I tried this and it
seemed t
Hi All,
Are there any CC out there that can parallel on the input side?
Situation is a older 12v system, 300’ wire run using a MX 60.
Client wants more PV, but CC is maxed out. Upgrading to say FM-100 is way
expensive and needs new mate etc.
Yes could totally redo the system to 24 or 48v and
