PV-GENSET Controller
The PV-GENSET Controller
is an advanced hybrid energy management system designed to integrate
solar PV panels, generator sets (diesel/gas), and battery storage.
It intelligently manages energy flow between these sources to ensure reliable power supply,
reduce fuel consumption, and maximize solar utilization.
Key Features of PV-GENSET Controller
- Automatic Power Source Selection – Seamlessly switches between solar PV, battery, and generator depending on power availability.
- Generator Auto Start/Stop – Automatically starts generator when battery voltage drops and stops it after recharge.
- Advanced Battery Protection – Protects batteries from overcharging and deep discharge.
- Load Prioritization – Ensures critical loads always receive power.
- Remote Monitoring – Some models support IoT monitoring and remote control.
- MPPT Solar Charging – Uses Maximum Power Point Tracking technology to maximize solar power production.
- Grid Compatibility – Some hybrid models allow connection with utility grid.
How PV-GENSET Controller Works
The controller works as the intelligent brain of a hybrid solar system.
It automatically selects the most efficient power source based on availability
and system configuration.
- Solar PV – Primary Source
Solar energy powers loads first and charges the battery bank. - Battery Storage – Secondary Source
When solar production drops, stored battery energy powers the load. - Generator – Backup Source
When battery voltage drops below the defined limit, the controller automatically starts the generator.
This automation significantly reduces generator run time, fuel consumption,
and maintenance costs while extending battery life.
Core Functions
- Dual Input Power Management – Handles both solar and generator inputs.
- Advanced Battery Charging – Supports bulk, absorption, and float charging stages.
- Load Shedding – Disconnects non-critical loads during low power conditions.
- System Protection – Over voltage, overload, and short circuit protection.
- LCD Monitoring Interface – Shows battery voltage, load usage, and power source.
Applications
- Off-Grid Solar Homes
- Telecom Towers
- Industrial Backup Power
- Hospitals & Critical Infrastructure
- Remote Agricultural Farms
- Microgrid Power Systems
The PV-GENSET Controller provides an ideal solution for
hybrid solar power systems where reliability and efficiency are critical.
By intelligently managing solar, battery, and generator power sources,
it ensures continuous electricity while minimizing fuel consumption.
