M46 solar and wind charge controller 60 A

The M46 is a universal solar and wind charge controller rated 60 A with PWM control: rated cable charging current and rated load current of 60 A each, automatic recognition of 12 or 24 V battery voltage, and a 48 V system option. It optimises the current flow to extend battery life.

Technical specifications

What is the M46 solar and wind charge controller for?

The M46 is for charging batteries with current from a solar-wind system, and it optimises the current flow to extend battery life.

• Charging batteries from a solar-wind system
• 12 or 24 V battery systems with automatic voltage recognition
• 48 V systems (see the voltage section)

Wind turbine charge controller: 12 V, 24 V or 48 V

The M46 automatically recognises a 12 or 24 V battery voltage, and it is also intended for 48 V systems. For a 48 V system we confirm the right variant before you order, and we choose the set of turbines, solar panels and batteries to suit your site.

Current and protection: 60 A, PWM, operating temperature

The M46 has a rated cable charging current and a rated load current of 60 A each, with PWM control. It has overload and short-circuit protection, and operates from -35 °C to +55 °C. It weighs 0.5 kg and measures 15 × 10 × 5 cm.

Installing a small wind system: what wind must the mast withstand?

With a wind system, power is not the only thing that matters; the mast does too. According to the Lithuanian Hydrometeorological Service:

“The highest wind speed recorded in Lithuania’s observation history was 40 m/s.”

Lithuanian Hydrometeorological Service — Wind (translated from Lithuanian)

So it is not only the controller and the turbine that matter, but also how the mast is anchored: the foundation, guy wires and fixings have to withstand strong wind.

We handle it for you. We select the equipment for your site, deliver anywhere in Lithuania, install and connect it.
