Solar Controller - Series 3 for OWS Solar Compressors

Maximize the efficiency, uptime, and lifespan of your pond aeration system with the Outdoor Water Solutions Series 3 Solar Compressor Controller. Engineered specifically as the "brain" behind our direct-drive solar aeration systems, this advanced motor drive seamlessly manages incoming solar energy to provide smooth, reliable power to your compressor. Whether you are running a 12V or 24V setup, the Series 3 controller automatically adapts to keep your water aerated from sunup to sundown. Key Features & Benefits Dual Voltage Compatibility (12V & 24V): Smart internal circuitry eliminates the guesswork. The controller seamlessly integrates with both 12-volt and 24-volt OWS compressor systems, allowing for flexible system builds and straightforward upgrades. Intelligent Power Management: Featuring an advanced microprocessor design, the board optimizes voltage and current directly from your PV (photovoltaic) solar panels, ensuring your compressor starts smoothly and runs consistently, even in variable light conditions. Built-in Diagnostic LED Indicators: Troubleshooting is visual and immediate. Onboard LEDs for Status, Current (CURR), and Stall give you real-time feedback on system health, minimizing downtime if an issue arises. Robust Overcurrent Protection: Equipped with an easily accessible, standard 10-Amp automotive blade fuse to protect your valuable compressor and circuitry from unexpected power surges or short circuits. Advanced Thermal Control: Features dedicated terminal outputs for dual cooling fans (Fan 1 and Fan 2) alongside PWM and Tachometer inputs, ensuring your system's enclosure stays cool during peak summer operating hours. Heavy-Duty Terminal Block: The rugged, commercial-grade screw terminal block provides secure, vibration-resistant connections for your solar inputs (+PV / GND), motor outputs (VOUT), and auxiliary cooling fans. Technical Specifications Model/Rev: Solar Motor Drive RevA (Series 3) Input Power: Direct DC from Solar PV Array Output: 12V DC / 24V DC to OWS Air Compressor Protection: 10A Replaceable Blade Fuse Mounting: Clear acrylic backplate included for secure, standoff mounting inside your compressor cabinet. Why Upgrade to the Series 3? Designed by engineers who understand the harsh realities of off-grid pond management, the SAP1224 board is built for endurance. By tightly regulating the power delivered from your solar panels to your compressor, the Series 3 controller reduces motor wear, prevents stalling, and maximizes the dissolved oxygen levels in your pond when your fish need it most.
