MX-60 New Install (tweaks?)

nigtomdaw · June 2008

Hi Ive just installed my first MX60 for a customer with a VFX3048E /Mate but no hub using 2 RTS one for each charger .After setting the 48v operating array as per instuctions for the MX/60 it seems to be operating perfectly well without any further tweaks, the default battery settings are good and its currently wired to 6 Kyocera 130s giving a nominal 72 volts So no fear of approaching 150 v max. Is that it or do we have further tweaking to improve things. I have lots or reading to do on the VFX and MX and this is probably the first of many questions.

You may wish to double check your panel configuration, depending on how cold it gets in your climate, the 6 panels in series might exceed The MX-60's maximum VOC allowed

Thanks SG already done that, even worst case temp senario for my location in Spain is 145 volts before also factoring in the voltage drop from the 75 meter wire run from the array to the charge controller.
