insulation, burn surrounding materials, or even
cause fire. Ensure tight connections.
F
or good service life, extreme temperatures and
marine environments should be avoided.
WARNING: Solar and battery fuses or DC
breakers are required in the system. These
protection devices are external to the EcoPulse
controller, and must be a maximum of 15
Amps for the EcoPulse-10/M, 30 Amps for
the EcoPulse-20/M, and 40 Amps for the
EcoPulse-30/M.
WARNING: All breakers must be properly rated
for wire ampacity, which may require less than
the maximum breaker sizes referenced above.
WARNING: Minimum over-current protection
device interrupt ratings must be 2000A
for 12V systems, and 4000A for 24V systems.
NOTE: Carefully observe the LEDs after
each connection. The LEDs will indcate
proper polarity, and a secure co nnection.
3.2 Configuration

recommended when system noise is not a problem.
3.3 Mounting
Inspect the controller for shipping damage. Mount the
EcoPulse to a vertical surface (4-#8 zinc-plated self-
tapping screws are included). Tighten the mounting
screws using care not to crack the plastic case. Do not
install directly over an easily combustible surface since
the heat sink may get hot under certain operating
conditions.
NOTE: The heat sink must be in a vertical
position (fins up and down).
Table 3.1. Battery charging settings for each selectable battery type
If the system voltage DIP Settings Switches are set
to Auto-detect, battery voltage over 15.5V will be
detected as a 24V nominal battery, and the unit will
charge accordingly.
The 12/24V auto selection is done only at start-up,
and the detected system voltage will never change
during operation. It is recommended to set DIPs 2
and 3 to the correct system voltage setting. Only use
the default auto-detect setting if the nominal system
voltage is not known.
Switches 4, 5, 6: Battery Type Selection
Preset EcoPulse battery charging options are shown
in table 3-1 below. All voltage settings listed are
for nominal 12 Volt batteries. Multiply the voltage
settings by two (2) for 24 Volt systems.

STEP 1: Check Controller Limitations
Verify that the highest temperature compensated solar
array open-circuit voltage (Voc), and load current do
not exceed the ratings of the EcoPulse version being
installed.
STEP 2: Remote Temperature Sensor
WARNING: Risk of Fire.
If no Remote Temperature Sensor (RTS)
is connected, use the EcoPulse within 3m
(10ft) of the batteries. Internal Temperature
Compensation will be used if the RTS is
not connected. Use of the RTS is strongly
recommended.
Connect the RTS to the 2-position terminal located
(see figure). There is no polarity, so the (+) or (-) can
be connected to either screw terminal.
WARNING: Equipment Damage.
Never place the temperature sensor inside
abattery cell. Both the RTS and the battery
will be damaged.
CAUTION: The EcoPulse will use the local
temperature sensor for compensation if the RTS
is not used.
STEP 3:
Grounding
NOTE: Depending on the country of
installation, conductors identified by the
color green, or a combination of green /
yellow, shall only be used for earthing
conductors.
For safety, and effective lightning protection, it is
recommended, and may be locally required, that
the negative conductor of the charging system be
properly grounded. Use only one system earth
ground. For conductor sizing requirements, refer to
the U.S. National Electrical Code, or applicable local
regulations or code.

4.1 Battery Charging Information
4-Stage Charging
The EcoPulse has a 4-stage battery charging algorithm
for rapid, efficient, and safe battery charging. Figure
4-1 below, shows the sequence of stages.
Figure 4.1. EcoPulse Charging Algorithm
Bulk Charge Stage
During Bulk charging, the battery is not at 100% state
of charge and battery voltage has not yet charged to
the Absorption voltage set-point. The controller will
deliver 100% of available solar power to recharge the
battery.

VOLTAGE
TIME
Absorption Stage
When the battery has recharged to the Absorption
voltage set-point, constant voltage regulation is
used to maintain battery voltage at the Absorption
set-point.
Float Stage
After the battery is fully charged in the Absorption
stage, the EcoPulse reduces the battery voltage to
the Float voltage set-point. The purpose of float is to
protect the battery from long-term overcharge.
Equalization Stage
WARNING: Risk of Explosion.
Equalizing vented batteries produces
explosive gases. The battery bank must be
properly ventilated.
CAUTION: Equipment Damage.
Equalization increases the battery voltage
to levels that may damage sensitive DC
loads. Verify all system loads are rated for
the temperature compensated Equalize
voltage before beginning an Equalization
charge.

CAUTION: Equipment Damage.
Excessive over-charging and gasing too
vigorously can damage the battery plates
and cause shedding of active material from
the plates. An equalization that is
too high, or too long, can be damaging.
Review the requirements for the particular
battery being used in your system.
Equalization (EQ) charging raises the battery voltage
above the standard absorption voltage so that the
