BZ Products Linear Current Booster LCB-8B

A linear current booster (LCB) efficiently couples a photovoltaic solar array to a DC motor. Under low sun, it promotes early start and reduces stalling. In full sun, it provides overspeed and overload protection. It also provides remote on/off switching by float switch or thermostat.

LCB is a variable voltage converter with maximum power point tracking (MPPT) to draw the most available power from a photovoltaic (PV) array. Most positive displacement solar pumps require a current boosting controller for a nonbattery system. It also helps centrifugal pumps and fans under low-light conditions. New flexibility improves system economy.

For the 12/24V models, the choice of array voltage is independent of pump voltage. The array can be 12, 24 or 36V, to match or step down to a 12 or 24V pump. Increasing the array voltage reduces the wire size requirement exponentially. If you have a long wire run, place the controller at the pump so the long run is at the higher voltage.

Applications include Dankoff Solar Slowpump and Solar Force Piston Pump, Solarjack SDS & Shurflo pumps, jack pumps, fans, blowers
