Homax 85A. Battery Charge Controller MPPT, ( HYBRID )

The Homax 85A Battery Charge Controller MPPT (Hybrid) is a high-efficiency solar charge regulator designed to optimize power from photovoltaic (PV) panels and deliver smart, safe charging to battery banks. It uses Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) technology to maximize solar energy harvest and provide stable charging performance for hybrid solar systems supporting both solar and auxiliary inputs.

Key Features
🔹 MPPT Technology – Tracks and adjusts operating point of PV panels to extract maximum available power, improving energy yield over PWM controllers.
🔹 85 Amp Charge Current – Suitable for medium to large solar setups, supporting higher battery charging currents up to ~85 A.
🔹 Hybrid Operation – Works with solar PV and can integrate with auxiliary charging sources (such as AC mains or generator feed in hybrid installations).
🔹 Battery Compatibility – Designed to charge common battery types including sealed lead-acid, gel, AGM, tubular, and lithium batteries.
🔹 Auto Voltage Detection – Automatically recognizes system battery voltage (commonly 12 V / 24 V) and configures charge parameters accordingly — simplifies installation.
🔹 Multi-Stage Charging – Implements charging stages such as bulk, absorption, and float to optimize battery health and lifespan.
🔹 Protection Features – Built-in safeguards including overcharge protection, reverse polarity protection, short-circuit protection, over-temperature protection, and battery over/under-voltage cut-offs.
🔹 Display & Monitoring – Digital LCD/LED display (depending on variant) for real-time monitoring of battery voltage, charge current, and system status.
