MorningStar Sunsaver Charge Controllers

Charge Controllers - Morningstar - SunSaver

The SunSaver is a very reliable charge controller and uses the same battery charging algorithm as the ProStar and offers many of the advantages of the ProStar for smaller systems, at a reduced cost. Constant voltage PWM charging is a proven advancement compared to the common on/off PV regulators. SunSavers are field-selectable for sealed or flooded batteries. A rugged anodized aluminum case and epoxy-encapsulated electronics ensure durability and longevity. A temperature compensation sensor in the charge control varies full charge voltage with temperature. They have LED charging and load control LVD (low voltage disconnect) indicators in LVD models.

Morningstar SunSaver charge controllers are Class 1 Division 2 Group A-D Hazardous (Classified) certified for systems that are properly wired per Division 2 NEC approved wiring methods. Click here for the Class I Division 2 certification approval certificate.
