Morningstar Corporation
ProStar MPPT Solar Charge Controller
12/24V, 40A with Meter Display
PS-MPPT-40M
Morningstar has added MPPT to their ProStar line of controllers! This 40A MPPT Charge Controller includes a Meter Display, and is capable of charging all battery types, including Lithium Ion. This is the first mid-range MPPT controller fully UL and IEC listed, that has integrated lighting and load control. The NEW ProStar MPPT™ is a mid-range MPPT solar charge controller with TrakStar Technology™ that provides maximum power point tracking (MPPT) battery charging for off-grid photovoltaic (PV) systems up to 1100 watts. This device is ideal for industrial and residential applications. An optional wire Box for the ProStar MPPT controller provides a wiring compartment with knockouts for conduit and cable glands. It provides for a cleaner, safer install.
This version of the controller has the NEW Meter design. It offers:
Graphic LCD display with large font
Bright LED backlit display
Various display status screens
Easy, intuitive backlit navigation arrow buttons
Field adjustable and configurable settings for charging, load control, and lighting control
Features of the ProStar MPPT Controller:
12/24V Battery Auto Detect
Advanced field adjustable load & lighting control built in
Advanced battery programming including Lead Acid, Lithium Ion , and Nickel Iron batteries
Continuous charging and no damage from oversizing PV array
4-stage charging: Bulk, Absorption, Float, Equalize
Built-in self diagnostics for continuous monitoring of internal hardware issues or system problems
Fanless design and vast operating temperature range make it suitable for extreme environments
Very high weighted efficiency keeps power output high even at full power
190 days of internal data logging w/NEW graphical view on Meter versions
Single RJ11 port that can be used for the Meter or for Data mode
Electronic Protections: Automatic recovery without fuses;
Solar Input

5 Year Warranty
And check out these great benefits too:
You are able to apply more input on the controller than rated for. Output current will be limited to the max controller current rating. This allows you to get the best usage of controller capacity.
The advanced electronic design offers long life and reliability. The 3 independently controlled high frequency MPPT stages use Morningstar's TrakStar algorithm, giving you up to 30% more power out of your solar array versus a PWM solar charge controller.
The connections have up to #2AWG power terminals which are extremely robust terminal connections for a controller of this size. This is very helpful when the controller needs to be a long distance from the array.
It is highly recommended to add the optional RTS (Remote Temperature Sensor) to the controller, as the reading will come directly from the battery, for a more effective charging and reading of the batteries.
Technical Specifictations:
*Exceeding Maximum PV Open Circuit Voltage may damage the controller.
**Input power can exceed Nominal Maximum Operating Power, but controller will limit and provide its rated continuous maximum output current into batteries. This will not harm the controller (reminder: do not exceed Voc).

Everyone’s Solar Profile.
I recently sold my successful solar company that I created around 1992 in the state of Maine.  My solar experience is in site surveys, design, installations, and maintenance of 500 plus clients, specializing in off grid homes, and owning my own off grid home.
Solar is part of my life and the bonus of meeting so many different client’s needs, remains my quest to see more people enjoy their home with solar.
I have taken advantage of my suppliers for the last 25 years to give you the best price I possibly can.  If you don’t find what you need on my site, please tell me what you need, and I will do my best to get it for you.
If you are new to solar and need help, feel free to reach out to me.  I will be more than happy to design a system for your needs.
I normally ship within two days of receiving payment, however if your item is not readily available I will inform you immediately and make the necessary required changes.
Sincerely
John Myatt
