The XW-MPPT60-150 controller can be used with PV arrays with voltages up to 150 VDC and 60 amps with battery voltages of 12 to 60 VDC. PV open circuit voltage must not exceed 150 VDC.

Maximum power point tracking allows the charge controller to harvest the maximum energy available from the PV array. Further, the MPPT algorithm continuously adjusts the operating points in an attempt to find the maximum power point of the array.

The charge controller has a configurable auxiliary output (5 to 13 volts at 200 mA) to drive a relay for load control or to turn on devices such as vent fans or indicator alarms.  The auxiliary output can be configured to perform only one function at a time.

System includes a large aluminum heat sink which allows it to operate at full power with only convection cooling, without the need for a fan.  Built in PV ground fault protection allows code compliant installation without the need for additional ground fault protection. Can be mounted on the side or top of the XW power distribution panel or used by itself in other PV systems.  The front panel features a 2 line 16 character display and four buttons for configuration and system monitoring.  A battery temperature sensor is included with the controller.

The XW-MPPT60-150 is able to communicate its settings and activity to other Xanbus enabled devices, such as the XW series inverter/charger, the system control panel II (SCP), XW automatic generator start (XW-AGS), and other Xantrex XW-MPPT60-150 charge controllers through the Xanbus network.

Array size can be up to 750 watts when charging a 12 volt battery, 1,500 watts when charging at 24 volts and 3,000 watts when charging at 48 volts.
