5. Instrucțiuni de configurare
Follow these steps to set up your Renogy portable solar panel system:
5.1. Unfolding and Positioning the Solar Panel
- Place the folded solar suitcase on a flat, stable surface.
- Unlatch the clasps and carefully unfold the two solar panels.
- Extindeți suporturile integrate de pe spatele panoului.
- Adjust the angle of the kickstands to face the solar panels directly towards the sun. Optimal performance is achieved when the panels are perpendicular to the sun's rays.
Figura 5.1: Adjustable kickstands allow for precise angling of the solar panel towards the sun.
5.2. Connecting the Charge Controller and Battery
- Ensure the solar panel is not exposed to direct sunlight during initial connection to prevent damage.
- Connect the alligator clips from the charge controller to your 12V battery terminals. Connect the positive (+) clip to the positive battery terminal and the negative (-) clip to the negative battery terminal.
- Once the battery is connected, connect the solar panel's MC4 connectors to the corresponding inputs on the 20A Voyager charge controller.
- The charge controller display should illuminate, indicating a successful connection.

6. Instrucțiuni de utilizare
The 20A Voyager charge controller manages the charging process to protect your battery and optimize performance.
6.1. Charge Controller Functions
- Afişa: The LCD screen shows real-time charging status, battery voltage, și curent.
- Selectare tip baterie: The controller supports various 12V battery types (e.g., Sealed, Gel, Flooded, Lithium). Press and hold the 'BATTERY TYPE' button for 3 seconds to enter the battery type selection mode. Cycle through options by pressing the button briefly, and the selection will save automatically after a few seconds of inactivity.
- 4-StagÎncărcare PWM: Controlerul folosește un sistem de 4 secundetage Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) charging algorithm:
- Încărcare în vrac: Rapidly charges the battery.
- Incarcare de stimulare: Continuă încărcarea la un volum mai maretage pentru a asigura încărcarea completă.
- Taxă plutitoare: Maintains the battery at a full charge level.
- Taxa de egalizare: Periodically overcharges flooded batteries to prevent sulfation (if applicable to selected battery type).
Figura 6.1: Cele 4-stage PWM charging process ensures efficient and safe battery charging.
6.2. Maximizing Solar Harvest
- Periodically adjust the panel's angle throughout the day to follow the sun's path.
- Ensure no shadows fall on the solar panels, as even partial shading can significantly reduce power output.
7. Întreținere
Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and longevity of your solar panel system.
- curatenie: Clean the solar panel surface periodically with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust, dirt, and debris. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals.
- Inspecţie: Regularly inspect all cables and connections for signs of wear, corrosion, or damage. Ensure all connections are tight.
- Depozitare: When not in use, fold the solar panel and store it in its protective canvas case in a dry, cool place.
