I’m looking for help in connecting a MPPT Smart Solar 100 / 30 controller with a Smart Energy Sense to an Outback 200PLC battery. Outback says the battery doesn’t fall into a general battery type such as GEL, Lithium, Sealed or Flooded. I was told to use User Defined and enter the parameters from the datasheet.
When I set-up the Smart Solar controller, I only found parameters within the set-up for battery for Equalized 14.1), Boost (14.1) and Float (13.5)
I didn’t see any place to enter capacity (176AH).
Below are the other parameters.
Parameter |
Value Used |
Over Voltage Disconnect (V) |
14.5 |
Charge Limit Voltage (V) |
14.2 |
Boost Charge Recovery Voltage (V) |
13.2 |
Over Discharge Recovery Voltage (V) |
12.6 |
Low Voltage Alarm (V) |
12 |
Over Discharge Voltage (V) |
11.9 |
Discharge Limit Voltage (V) |
10.6 |
Over Discharge Delay Time (S) |
5 |
Equalize Charge Time (Minutes) |
120 |
Boost Charge Time (Minutes) |
120 |
Equalize Charge Interval |
30 |
Temperature Compensation |
3 |
There are other parameters listed for batteries within the Victron battery set-up screen. Is it recommended to just use the default values?
Thanks
