{"product_id":"30-amp-flush-mount-pwm-solar-charge-controller","title":"BRAVO AIR 30 - 30 Amp Flush Mount PWM Solar Charge Controller","description":"\u003cp\u003eA flush-mount 30 amp PWM controller for 12 volt systems, meant to sit in a wall panel rather than on a bulkhead. Bluetooth is built in rather than sold as an add-on module, so you can read charge state from a phone without buying anything else.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy this controller\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesigned to mount flush in a cabinet face or wall panel, which is the usual reason to choose it over a surface-mount unit.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBluetooth monitoring is integrated. The MPPT controllers in this range need the separately sold BT-1 module to do the same thing.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAutomatically wakes a LiFePO4 battery whose BMS has shut down, and supports flooded, AGM, gel, calcium and LiFePO4 profiles.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePWM regulation through MOSFET switching, with spark-free connection.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCertified to UL1741, CE, EMC, FCC and RoHS.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProtection against over-voltage, short circuit, reverse polarity and over-temperature, the last cutting in at 185°F.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstallation and limits\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThis is a 12 volt controller only. There is no 24 volt mode.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe array voltage limit is the constraint that matters: normal input is 5 to 22 VDC and the absolute open-circuit maximum is 25 VDC. That means a single nominal 12 volt panel. You cannot put two panels in series on this controller, only in parallel.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRich Solar does not publish a maximum array wattage. Thirty amps at 12 volts works out around 360 watts, but that is arithmetic rather than a manufacturer rating, so confirm before sizing an array to the limit.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRated IP22 in a plastic PC housing. That is less protection than the IP30 and IP32 units elsewhere in the range, and it is not a weatherproof controller. Mount it inside.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVertical wall mounting only. Terminals take up to #8 AWG stranded, torqued to 6.2 to 7.1 in-lb.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOperating range is -13°F to 122°F, with humidity to 85 percent RH.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTemperature-compensated charging needs the optional external BTS sensor, which is not supplied.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRich Solar does not publish a weight for this unit, so shipping is quoted manually.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWarranty\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRich Solar covers PWM controllers for one year.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnlike the MPPT controllers, this term is not prorated — it is straight coverage for twelve months.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOriginal purchaser only, and not transferable.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"RICHSOLAR","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46392691196054,"sku":"RS-PWM30RV","price":63.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0676\/5291\/1254\/files\/RS-PWM30PF_30A_Flush_Mount_PWM_Solar_Charge_Controller_20251219_1.jpg?v=1785842288","url":"https:\/\/sunenergydepot.com\/products\/30-amp-flush-mount-pwm-solar-charge-controller","provider":"sunenergydepot.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
