Advantages of a 12-24-48-60v Outback fm 60 Mppt solar regulator vs a pwm solar regulator
There are two types of solar regulators on the market, mppt regulators such as the 60 amp 150v flexmax outback and there are also so-called pwm (pulse width modulation). Mppt regulators have many advantages over pwm and are the recommended option as long as the budget allows.

• In the first place, an mppt regulator allows the series connection of panels, that is, we can enter the regulator at a voltage higher than that of the battery. In this 60Ah outback regulator we have a maximum of 150 volts in photovoltaic input open circuit, so for example in a 24 volt system we can connect panels in three series like this Amerisolar 265w panel. For an example of a 265w three-plate system we will have to:

1. At the input of the 60Ah outback regulator we will have 90 volts in a closed circuit and about 8.7 amps. The mppt will act on the battery output and lower that voltage to charge the battery and raise the amps. with what we will have at the output (depending on the charging stage) for example 27 volts and 29 amps of battery charging. By being able to enter a higher voltage, we facilitate series connection by reducing the wiring section and minimizing losses due to voltage drop.

• Secondly, with an outback fm 60 mppt regulator we obtain more production than with a pwm voltage regulator, the mppt takes advantage of 100% of what the photovoltaic panel produces, obtaining yields of up to 30% higher than the pwm voltage regulator. With fewer panels we obtain the same performance as with a pwm regulator and more panels, so the higher investment of the mppt is justified by lowering the investment in the photovoltaic panel. For example, 8 300w panels with a pwm voltage regulator will perform approximately the same as 6 300w panels with a mppt solar controller.
• Thirdly, we have that the mppt charges more on cloudy days since by being able to connect panels in series and enter a higher voltage, on cloudy days the mppt solar controller will charge earlier thanks to the fact that it will always have enough voltage to exceed that of Battery. In an mppt regulator like the voltronic we enter at 90 volts, if it is cloudy this value can go down due to the low irradiation to 60-70v which is higher than the 24 volts of the system and therefore will contribute the load produced by the panels. In the pwm solar controller we enter 35 volts so if it is cloudy we can have less than 24 volts at certain times and we cannot exceed the battery voltage and therefore charge.
