Analytic Systems
Analytic Systems’ SolarMax Charge Controller 200
Voc Capacity uses an advanced Maximum Power
Point Tracking (MPPT) algorithm, which is up to 30%
more efficient than a non-MPPT charge controller
standard battery charger, allowing users to maximize
the energy harvested from their solar array. It
also allows them to use a higher voltage PV array
than their current batteries as it’s capable of stepping
down the voltage, which allows for greater
flexibility in the choice of array for a system.
