SCC3 - 12 Volt 20 Amp Solar Charge Controller Kit

The SCC3 kit is the heart of a 12 Volt solar power system, it regulates the charging of batteries from photovoltaic (PV) solar panels. A charge control regulator is an essential part of any solar power system.

A 12 Volt solar power system can provide power to a wide variety of devices. Some examples include: lighting systems, cellular phones, CB and Ham radios, car stereos, televisions, recording equipment, fans, water pumps, and other low voltage DC loads. With the addition of an inverter, the DC power can be converted to 110 Volts AC for powering an even wider variety of devices.

The SCC3 is suitable for both permanently installed and portable power systems. It is an excellent choice for emergency backup lighting systems, and remote cabin power supplies. Combine the SCC3 with a solar panel and rechargeable battery for a reliable source of DC power that's available, even when the power company is not.

Controls and indicators include a battery float voltage adjustment, a battery equalize (overcharge) switch and a red/green Charge/Float LED.

See the SCC3 specifications for details on the kit's capabilities.

The SCC3 Photo Gallery shows some real-world uses of the SCC3.

The SCC3 kit makes a great student project, it can be used as the foundation for many science and electronics projects. The efficient design is suitable for charging large banks of lead acid batteries or small packs of rechargeable AA cells.
