The Morningstar Battery Temperature Sensor (RTS) is designed to provide improved battery charging in solar systems that experience temperature variations throughout the year. This sensor measures the temperature at the battery and uses this data for accurate temperature compensation, ensuring optimal charging performance.
Product Features:
- This sensor provides highly accurate temperature measurements with an accuracy of +/- 1.5°C (2.7°F).
- It features a cable length of 10 meters (33 feet), which can be easily extended up to 30 meters (100 feet) using standard cable.
- The device corrects for temperatures ranging from -30°C (-22°F) to +80°C (+176°F), ensuring reliable performance in various conditions.
- This sensor's wires are non-polarized, simplifying installation.
- It includes a power lug housing with a 9.5 mm (3/8�) screw hole for secure attachment.
- The sensor uses a 2-conductor copper cable with a PVC jacket, rated UL CMR for safety.
- It is a UL recognized component when used with TriStar controllers and CE certified for use with all compatible Morningstar controllers.
- The device filters sensor noise, ensuring accurate data transmission.
Compatible Devices:
- ProStar (soldering required)
- TriStar
- SunKeeper
- SunSaver Duo
- SunSaver MPPT
- TriStar MPPT
Application Areas:
- This sensor is ideal for solar systems that experience significant temperature variations, ensuring accurate temperature compensation.
- It is perfect for use with Morningstar controllers that lack on-board temperature compensation, such as the TriStar.
- This product is beneficial for residential and commercial solar installations requiring precise battery charging.
- It is suitable for any setup that utilizes Morningstar controllers and requires reliable temperature measurement for optimal performance.
