Apollo T80 Charge Controller, 80 amp MPPT Battery Chnarge Management System

Power and Control in a Single Device
The T80 TurboCharger^TM integrates Maximum Power Point Tracking, battery charge management, state of charge information and communications into a single device. With 80 Amps continuous output, the T80 has the largest capacity in the industry by over 30%.

Continuous Power Rating Up to 113F (45C) Ambient
The T80 TurboCharger^TM produces full-rated power without de-rating up to 45C ambient temperature. Above that, the output current is reduced gradually to protect the life of the T80 and then automatically ramped up as the temperature decreases. high efficiency power circuits and robust thermal design minimize heat generation. The internal temperature-controlled variable speed fan runs just fast enough to maintain optimum reliability.

Energy Monitor Built In
The T80 includes a built-in Energy Monitor using TriMetric^TM Technology from Bogart Engineering. The monitor tracks power production and consumption to calculate the energy remaining in the batter. State of Charge (SOC) is displayed in Percent Full, Amp-hours, Watt-Hours, and Bar-Graph format. In addition, 90 days of energy-harvest history is stored in the T80.

Enhanced Battery Performance and Life
The T80 supports Flooded Lead Acid (FLA), GEL and Absorbed Glass Mat (AGM) batteries. Four-stage charging with adjustable set points for all parameters.

Optimum MPPT/Charging Efficiency Cuts Costs
The T80 captures up to 35% more power from the photovoltaic (PV) array with patent-pending MPPT technology. The Apollo MPPT algorithm starts early and locks onto the peak power during rapidly changing insolatrion and temperature. The T80 dramatically cuts the cost of a PV system by reducing the number of PV panels required, eliminating the need for heavy gauge wiring, and increasing the life of the storage batteries.

Integral Performance-and-Updated Communications
The slot for optional add-in cards provides data communication to Remote Displays, PCs and the Internet. System performance can be monitored remotely and the T80 accepts software upgrades using a PC and the Remote Display's SD Memory Card.
