Adjustable: All settings are adjustable and are stored in a non-volatile memory.


Three Step Regulation: Boost, Absorption and Float modes with an optional periodic Equalisation mode.. Can switch in series, shunt or series & shunt modes.

History: Records charge and load amp hours, max and min battery voltages and state of charge for the last 30 days. Remembers how much was really collected and used.

Generator Control: A sophisticated generator controller is included with four different modes of control available and a quiet time option.

Event Control: A versatile event controller allows the load to be turned on or off under a user selected set of conditions. Can be used for lighting, pumping, frost control etc.

Alarm: There is an adjustable low or high battery voltage alarm.

Second Battery: When the main battery is full, use the waste energy to charge an auxiliary battery. The PL supplies a signal to switch a relay to the second battery.

Remote Control: A computer can communicate with the PL using the PLI RS232 interface. Data can be downloaded and settings adjusted from far away.

Display: User friendly alphanumeric LCD gives you words to explain the numbers.

Energy Metering: Shows daily charge and discharge amp hours.

Protection: Protected against short circuit, reverse flow, lightning. Low battery load disconnect function built in. Current limit for over heat or over current. Conformal coating applied to protect against corrosion.

External Shunts: Two external shunts can be connected using the DC isolated PLS adaptor.

PLS2 Shunt adaptor - This allows the PL regulator to also read what goes in an out of the batteries, apart from through the regulator, and allows the regulator to indicate total input, total output, and percentage state of charge of the batteries.

Also required is a suitable shunt, and the WYS or WZS connecting cable.

Shunt - used for PL Regulators, detects outgoing charge from the battery bank, and also incoming charge from other sources, eg generator, and battery charger.

WYS - Shielded cable (3m) to connect PLS2 to a PL20 or PL40 regulator.

WZS - Shielded cable (3m) to connect a PLS2 to a PL60 regulator.

PLA - allows up to 3 PL series charge controllers to work together. The PLA provides a common communication interface, 4 alarm or control channel outputs, and can control a separate load control unit called an LS1.
The PLA makes system performance data retrieval easier by providing a PC compatible way of collecting system total information.

PLM - Remote monitor allows remote access using one PL series. One button operation and audible alarm.

PLDA - PL controller double adapter for PL connector cables.

PLT-5M - PL controller temperature sensor 5m

Plasmatronics Dingo charge controller is the latest generation of solar controllers.

Inheriting many of the features of the PL series, it has:

More data storage (512 Days!)

Negative Ground (to suit mobile applications)

Enhanced one-button interface

LED backlight for LCD Display

Hidden wiring

and much more!

PR Series regulators

A simple two-stage regulator for charging liquid electrolyte lead-acid batteries from photovoltaic panels. It uses a rugged power Mosfet and switches on the negative side.

The PR regulator works like an intelligent switch between the battery (-) terminal and the solar (-) terminal. Charge current flows into the battery until the battery voltage rises to the boost maximum of 14.6 volts. The regulator then switches to float mode. The current is then switched off and the battery voltage slowly falls. When the battery voltage drops below the float cut - in voltage (13.4 v), the current is switched on again until the battery voltage rises to the float maximum of 14.0 volts. The charge current is then switched off. The regulator switches the current on and off to keep the battery voltage between the float maximum and the float cut in voltage. When the battery has been discharged enough for it to fall below the boost cut in voltage (12.5 v), the unit will switch back into boost mode.
DO NOT attempt to test this regulator without a battery connected. This is not a linear regulator.
The PR1210 is ideal for camping, boating and other one or two-panel solar applications. It features brass inserts and screws in the terminal block and is fully enclosed in resin.
The PR1210 is not adjustable.

PR regulators are available for 12 and 24 volt, and for wet and sealed batteries.

Correct model must be specified when ordering.
