2. Інфармацыя па бяспецы
Важныя інструкцыі па бяспецы:
- Always connect the battery to the charge controller first, then the solar panel, and finally the load. Disconnect in the reverse order.
- Ensure all connections are tight and secure to prevent excessive voltage drop and loose connections.
- Install the controller in a well-ventilated area, away from flammable gases.
- Не разбірайце і не спрабуйце рамантаваць кантролер самастойна. Звярніцеся да кваліфікаванага персаналу для абслугоўвання.
- Wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) when working with batteries and solar panels.
- The controller is IP68 rated for water and dust ingress, but avoid submerging it for extended periods or exposing it to high-pressure water jets.
3. Асаблівасці прадукту
The Phocos CIS10 Solar Charge Controller offers the following key features:
- Воданепранікальны дызайн IP68: Suitable for outdoor use, resistant to water spray, rain, and condensation.
- Аўтаматычны Voltage Выяўленне: Аўтаматычна вызначае аб'ём сістэмы пастаяннага току 12V або 24Vtagэс.
- 5-Сtagтэхналогія ШІМ: Provides Soft Start, Bulk, Absorption, Float, and Equalization charging stages for optimal battery health and system performance.
- Шырокая сумяшчальнасць з батарэямі: Works with LifePo4, LTO, GEL, AGM, Lead-Acid, Calcium, and EFB batteries.
- Шматфункцыянальныя функцыі абароны: Built-in protection against over-temperature, over-voltage, over-current, over-charging, over-discharging, overload, and short circuits.
- Compact and Thin Design: Maximizes solar power utilization with minimal self-power consumption.
4. Настройка і ўстаноўка
Follow these steps for proper installation of your Phocos CIS10 controller:
- Мантаж: Choose a suitable location for mounting the controller. Although IP68 rated, mounting in a shaded or protected area can extend its lifespan. Ensure adequate space for cable connections.
- Падключэнне батарэі: Connect the battery cables to the controller's battery terminals first. Ensure correct polarity (positive to positive, negative to negative). The controller will automatically detect the system voltage (12 В або 24 В).

- Падключэнне панэлі сонечных батарэй: Connect the solar panel cables to the controller's solar panel terminals. Observe correct polarity. The controller will begin charging the battery.
- Падключэнне нагрузкі (неабавязкова): If using the controller for a DC load (e.g., solar light), connect the load cables to the controller's load terminals. Ensure correct polarity.
- Праверка злучэнняў: Double-check all connections for tightness and correct polarity before powering on the system.
The controller's compact design and integrated wiring simplify installation. Its IP68 rating ensures durability in various outdoor conditions.

5. Інструкцыя па эксплуатацыі
The Phocos CIS10 operates automatically once connected. It utilizes advanced 5-stage Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) charging technology to optimize battery charging and extend battery life.
5.1. Зарадка Сtages
- Мяккі старт: Gradually increases current to the battery.
- Навальная плата: Delivers maximum current to rapidly charge the battery to approximately 80% capacity.
- Зарад паглынання: Charges the battery at a constant voltage to bring it to 100% capacity.
- Плата за паплавок: Maintains the battery at a full charge by providing a small, constant voltage.
- Выраўноўванне: Automatically performs equalization every 28 days for calcium/EFB batteries to prevent sulfation and ensure cell balance.
5.2. Work Mode (Optional)
The CIS10 controller supports configurable work modes, such as time control and light control, which can be set using an optional external unit like the CIS-CU (sold separately). This allows for customized operation of connected loads, such as solar lights.
6. Тэхнічнае абслугоўванне
The Phocos CIS10 is designed for minimal maintenance due to its robust IP68 rating and epoxy-encapsulated PCB. However, periodic checks are recommended:
- Візуальны агляд: Periodically inspect the controller and all connections for any signs of damage, corrosion, or loose wiring.
- Уборка: If necessary, gently clean the exterior of the controller with a damp тканіна. Не выкарыстоўвайце агрэсіўныя хімікаты або абразіўныя матэрыялы.
- Зарад батарэі: Monitor your battery's performance. The controller's equalization feature helps maintain battery health for compatible types.
7. Выпраўленне непаладак
The CIS10 controller includes multiple built-in protections to prevent damage. If you encounter issues, consider the following:
- No Charging/Load Output:
- Праверце ўсе злучэнні правадоў на герметычнасць і правільнасць палярнасці.
- Пераканайцеся, што сонечная панэль атрымлівае дастатковую колькасць сонечнага святла.
- Праверце аб'ём батарэіtage is within the operating range (12V/24V).
- Check for any blown fuses in the system (if applicable).
- Абарона ад перагрэву: If the controller becomes excessively hot, it may temporarily reduce or stop charging/output. Ensure it's not installed in an area with poor ventilation or direct, intense heat.
- Над-тtagе/Пад-выпtagе абарона: The controller will protect the battery from overcharging or deep discharge. If the battery voltage is too low, the load may be disconnected.
- Short Circuit/Overload Protection: If a short circuit or overload occurs on the load or solar input, the controller will temporarily shut down to protect itself and the system. Remove the fault and the controller should resume normal operation.
If problems persist, refer to the detailed specifications or contact Phocos customer support.
