Morningstar SHS-10-12V Solar Charge Controller
Low Cost:
The SHS was specifically designed to meet the needs of the rural
electrification market. The low cost resulted from using the latest
electronic technology and high volume manufacturing.
High Reliability:
Morningstar is a world-leading supplier of solar charge controllers.
All our controllers are designed for high quality and high reliability.
The SHS controller has a low failure rate and will last a long time.
Electronic Protections:
The SHS has built-in electronic fuses that do not require replacement.
Any wiring mistakes during installation will not damage the controller.
Tropicalization:
The SHS electronics are protected with a moisture-tight coating,
minimizing damage from humidity and from nesting insects.
Easy to Use:
The SHS controller is fully automatic and requires no adjustments or user selections.
Note: Designed for SHS projects in Africa, Asia and Latin America. The SHS controller is not being distributed in the U.S. and Canada.
