Description

Genasun GVB-8 (Boost)

105W/210W/325W/350W | Solar charge controller with MPPT

8A 12/24/36/48V Boost MPPT Controller for Lead Acid and Lithium Batteries

Overview

The industry’s most efficient boost controllers. These controllers boost lower-voltage solar panels up to charge higher-voltage lead-acid and lithium batteries up to 48V nominal

• 99% Peak Efficiency
• Continuous MPPT
• Advanced electronic protections
• IP40
• 5 Year Warranty
• Compatible with lithium and lead-acid batteries

Want to see a 27V grid-tie panel charge a 48V battery pack? Get a GVB.

Most solar charge controllers move power from a higher voltage panel to a lower voltage battery bank. The GVB-series controllers, in contrast, pump electricity up hill. These controllers will take a lower voltage panel and boost the voltage to charge a 24V, 36V or 48V battery pack. In fact, the GVB’s will work with almost any panel that’s below your battery voltage. Larger panels are cheaper per Watt than smaller panels, so using one large panel and a boost controller results in a significantly lower system cost than smaller panels in series with a conventional charge controller.

Mission-Critical Reliability

Genasun controllers are deployed to the most remote locations on earth. They endure years at sea, harsh Antarctic winters, freezing conditions in the upper atmosphere on solar powered airplanes, and in a few off-the-map locations. Made in the USA, each controller is put through complete electrical testing to ensure reliability. If you need mission-critical power, this is your controller.

High-Speed MPPT: Always on Target

Not all Maximum Power Point Tracking controllers were created equally. Most use a sweep and sleep method that scans the entire voltage range every 30-60 seconds. That’s okay for a clear day, but traditional controllers are constantly off target during changing cloud conditions – exactly when power is scarce and is needed the most. Genasun controllers adapt to changing light conditions 20 times every second. They are always on target, capturing every bit of available sunshine. Simply put, other controllers can’t keep up.

Computer-controlled, temperature-compensated 3-stage battery charging

Precise computer controlled charging ensures the optimal charge cycle for your battery. This increases the battery life, and maximizes battery capacity.
