Bp Solar Gcr 2000M Manual Transfer. Followed the decision of the Secretary of the DENR to register the sale and approve the transfer. 351 celda solar bp-255. According to the steca manual, this indicates a fault in the solar. The regulator model that I have is the BP Solar. Download Free The Game Of Life Diversity Activity For Preschoolers. Check out Energy Matters' current solar.
My system 'shipboard' system consists of two sharp 80W panels connected in parallel to a BP rebadged (Steca) regulator, charging two 80AH AGM batteries. These were also being charged by a dedicated 90A alternator which I have since removed from the system for troubleshooting purposes. The problem remains the same. Over the last six months starting very infrequently but now more regularly, I get the left hand led on the regulator going to a red, fault condition. According to the steca manual, this indicates a fault in the solar panels. If I disconnect the loads, the fuse and then the panels, the regulator resets itself.
It then works fine. Originally the time between faults was 1 month, now it's a matter of hours. Today, when I got to the boat, the regulator was in fault condition. I took the covers off the solar panel connector boxes and ensured the connections were good and there was no moisture. I then covered the panels and disassembled the connections as per the manual. I measured the following voltages with the panels wired in parallel. Torrent Ost To Pst Converter With Cracks. Solar output, unregulated: 17V Solar panel output regulated 3V Battery connection regulated 13.8V After putting everything back together, after a few minutes, the regulator went back to fault condition.
I had originally assumed the problem was with the regulator, now I'm aware that it could be one of the solar panels. (measurements were taken with the two wired together.) Any ideas?

Solar output, unregulated: 17V. == Open voltage of the panels = NORMAL Battery connection regulated 13.8V.== output of the regulator = NORMAL Solar panel output regulated 3V. Download Purple Chicks Megaupload Free there. == What? Voltage of Regulator connected to Battery? I know nothing about the Regulator, so I can only think in general terms. What is the OC Voltage of the batteries.
Could they be stuffed and never taking a charge and never rising high enuf, thus causing the controller to toss a Hissy-Fit. I cooked an $800 bank of batteries with a failed shunt controller...

Hi Tracker Not sure what you mean by OC voltage, but the batteries, separated from charging sources measure about 12.8.
With the regulator on and getting a charge they measure about 13.6 to 13.8. I believe batteries are ok. I leave a small 12V eutectic fridge on the boat on at all times. This is always frozen up solid. The fridge is on the 'load' side of the regulator. The regulator will cut off the load if battery voltage falls below 50%.
Also I've recently sailed overnight and the batteries supplied all the electronics and the nav lights all night without ever falling below 12.4 volts. When I measure the voltage at the connection of the solar panels to the regulator (with the regulator on and connected to the batteries) I get this ~3V reading. (I assume that the regulator some how shorts out the panels to control input to the batteries?? Solar Supporter Posts: 10 Joined: Mon Jan 18, 2010 3:16 pm. OC - Open Circuit. Nothing Connected!
