New Products

We are pleased to announce that we are introducing new products this year. The first of these products is an addition to our PPT lineup of linear current boosters. The PPT 16 is a new LCB that is capable of using 12, 24 or 36 volt PV input and capable of running a 12 or 24 volt pump at up to 16 amps. For more information follow this link to the new PPT 16 page.

Solar Converters Inc. is a manufacturer of highly efficient power control products for the renewable energy field. What makes us so unique is our products can work with any renewable power source to charge virtually any battery voltage or type to operate virtually any load. We have successfully designed and manufactured many custom controllers to solve unusual system configurations.

To address the needs of the renewable energy enthusiast and optimize the value and performance of your renewable energy system, we have developed several product lines of rugged and highly functional Linear Current Boosters, Battery Equalizers, Power Tracker™ charge controllers with Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT), Cathodic Protection Controllers, Generator Starters, Battery Desulphators, Constant Voltage Pump Drivers, Voltage Controlled Switches, Solar Lighting Controllers, DC-DC Converters, and more.

 Our products will do voltage conversions between battery and equipment voltage classes. This is especially uselful when long distances are required between the renewable power source and the equipment to be used. This allows smaller wire to be used substantially reducing the wiring cost to the extent that the controller more than pays for itself in wire savings

For example:

• 65 V panels charging a 12 V battery
• 48 V panels driving a 24 V pump
• 12 V panel charging 1.5 V Ni-CADs
• 45 V panels charging 24 V battery

Our advanced ultra high efficiency PWM (Pulse Width Modulated) charge controllers and motor drivers trademarked as Power Tracker™ are the cornerstones of our business. This new technology provides 15 - 30% more power from solar panels into discharged batteries and 15 - 50% more drive power for solar pumps and motors than current technology.

This translates into solar panel and battery savings! Why?

Because panels and batteries are EXPENSIVE! By using our Power Tracker™ controllers, fewer solar panels are needed. Our advanced charge control technology treats batteries properly, which saves in expensive battery replacements and landfill space. In addition, our Battery Desulphator extends the life of a battery system and will even recover dead batteries from sulpahtion that would otherwise be trashed.
