Constant Voltage Regulators -Up ConvertersSolar Converters manufactures many kinds of up converters desgned to produce a higher voltage than the input. There are many applications of these converters. To simplify selection, below is a list of applications typical of these converters. Note: May 31/04 Links under construction Applications:
1) Maintain a constant "full battery" voltage on a piece of equipment while the battery goes through its charge discharge cycle, for example, maintain 14 V on a radio as the battery goes from 11-14 V.
2) Maintain a constant voltage on a piece of equipment at a different battery voltage, for example, operate a 24 V motor from a 12 V battery.
3) Charge a higher voltage battery from a lower voltage battery, for example charge a 36 V battery from a 12 V battery.
4) Charge a higher voltage battery from a lower voltage PV panel. For example charge a 120 V battery from a 24 V battery. |
