5. Eto ati fifi sori

Follow these steps for proper installation of your Tracer3215BN controller:

1. Iṣagbesori: Mount the controller vertically on a flat surface in a well-ventilated indoor area, away from direct sunlight, high temperatures, and moisture. Ensure sufficient space around the heat sink for air circulation. The mounting dimensions are 130mm x 204mm with Φ4.7 mounting holes.
2. Wiring Order: Connect the system components in the following sequence to ensure safety and proper operation:
• Step 1: Connect the Battery: Connect the battery to the controller's battery terminals. Ensure correct polarity. The controller will detect the system voltage (12V/24V auto work).
• Step 2: Connect the Solar Panel: Connect the solar panel array to the controller's solar terminals. Ensure correct polarity.
• Step 3: Connect the Load: Connect the DC load to the controller's load terminals. Ensure correct polarity.
3. Iwọn USB: Use appropriate cable sizes. For the Tracer3215BN, a power cable size of 6AWG (16mm²) is recommended.
4. Ilẹ: The controller features common negative grounding. Ensure proper grounding according to local electrical codes.
