The ProStar is a highly specified controller: the 15A model is suitable for panel sizes up to 210W if running at 12V, or 420W if running a 24V system. The controller automatically senses the system voltage and adjusts its regulation pattern accordingly.

This model includes a digital meter display that reads directly from the micro controller and provides accurate readings of voltage and current values. System status and protection conditions are displayed and an added self-test feature displays specific conditions and faults in the unlikely event that they arise.

The ProStar models have an even more sophisticated charging regime than the SunGuard and SunSaver ranges. An equalising cycle is included to bring individual cells in a battery bank to the same voltage, ensuring maximum battery capacity is maintained.

The ProStar also allows you to select different regulation voltages for gel, sealed and flooded batteries. It includes a low-voltage disconnect feature as standard, and is fully protected against short-circuits, overloads, voltage spikes and even lightning!

ProStar regulators have screw terminals that accept bare wire so no special connectors are needed. We sell high quality, double-insulated cable (red and black) for making connections between the solar panel and regulators.

Also available with a built-in digital display

For greater charging efficiency, particularly when battery temperature varies by more than 5C throughout the day/year, add a Morningstar remote temperature sensor.

To connect up your system, we recommend FlexSolar outdoor-rated solar cable. We can also make up complete cables to your specification - see the cables and connectors page.

Suitable for 12V and 24V systems. There is even a 48V version available on special order - contact us for details.
