Details

Tracer A series adopts common positive design and advanced MPPT control algorithm. The products can track the MPP point fast and accurately in any situation which will improve energy efficiency and obtain the maximum solar energy.

A simple regulator might be a cheaper, more cost-effective solution. A MPPT regulator is more expensive to purchase but will render more energy from any type of solar panel. Theoretical calculations might give up to 30-35% more than a simple regulator. In real life one should count on between 0-20% increases in production. The result depends on the conditions.

So how to choose? Let’s say you would get 10% more production out of your solar panel with an MPPT regulator. Then compare the cost for 10% bigger solar panels versus the more expensive MPPT regulator. IF you have a limited space we would suggest that choose a SUNBEAMsystem solar panel to get the most out of the available space. Then secondly you also consider if you need the 10% extra as well.

If you have unlimited space it might sometimes be cheaper to choose an inexpensive regulator and buy several panels or a single larger panel.

What Size Regulator?

The regulator will be stamped with a maximum number like 10A or 20A. This is the highest current produced by the solar panel(s). It has nothing to do with the size of the battery bank.

10A equals about 130W in total of Solar Panels, 20A 260W and 40A 520W.

(for 24V battery system, double the watt).

Example : You purchase two 50W solar panels, that sums up to 100W. Since a 10A regulator will handle up to 130W solar panels this is the correct choice.
