Overview

EG4 Solar Charge Controller MPPT | 500VDC 100A | MPPT100-48HV

Using technology from the EG4 3kW All-in-One Solar Inverter, the EG4 MPPT100-48HV is a simple, affordable, yet reliable solar charge controller MPPT(Maximum Power Point Tracking).

The EG4 MPPT100-48HV solar charge controller extracts the maximum available power from your PV modules and safely converts it to a lower voltage to charge your battery bank. Optimize your new or existing solar power system by adding this unit and take advantage of additional solar harvesting capabilities.

BMS Communication

The MPPT charger is able to communicate with EG4 batteries when operating with non-EG4 compatible inverters via its RS485 BMS port.

What is an MPPT Charge Controller?

An MPPT, or maximum power point tracker is a DC-to-DC converter that optimizes the power between the solar panel array, and the battery bank. Basically, they convert a higher voltage DC output from solar panels down to the lower and consistent voltage needed to charge batteries.

How to read this datasheet

Detailed specifications for EG4 Solar Charge Controller MPPT | 500VDC 100A | MPPT100-48HV have not been published yet. EG4 lists this charge controller in the Charge Controllers, and we add fields as the manufacturer releases them — in the meantime, ask your distributor for the datasheet before ordering.

For a charge controller, the figures that matter most are whether it offers a load output, temperature compensation and remote monitoring, type: MPPT or PWM, rated charge current in amps, which must exceed the array's short-circuit current with margin and maximum PV open-circuit voltage, the hard limit that must survive cold-morning Voc rise. In any system with a battery and a separate array, the controller is what protects the most expensive component and determines how much of the array's output actually reaches storage.

Choosing a charge controller: the checks that matter

The checks below apply to any charge controller. Run them against the specification table above — most disappointing solar purchases are compatible-on-paper units that fail one of these in practice.

Size the current rating from array watts divided by battery voltage, then add at least 25% margin for cold, bright conditions where panels exceed their rated output.
Check the maximum PV input voltage against the array's Voc at your coldest expected temperature, not at 25 °C — Voc rises as temperature falls, and exceeding the limit destroys the controller instantly.
Confirm the controller supports your battery chemistry with the right charge profile. Lithium, AGM, gel and flooded batteries need different absorption and float voltages.
Prefer a unit with temperature compensation or a battery temperature sensor if the bank lives somewhere that gets hot or cold.

What people get wrong

Sizing on rated array watts alone and ignoring the voltage ceiling, which is the most common way controllers are killed.
Using a PWM controller with a high-voltage grid-tie panel — the voltage mismatch wastes a large share of the panel's output.
Running the load output beyond its rating instead of wiring heavy loads directly to the battery through a fuse.

Price and availability in United States

EG4 Solar Charge Controller MPPT | 500VDC 100A | MPPT100-48HV is listed at $ 450 (USD) for United States. Solar pricing moves with supply, import duties and exchange rates, and distributors set their own margins, so treat this as a comparison reference and confirm the current figure before you order.

SolarBazaar compares equipment rather than selling it. Shortlist here on specification and price, then buy from an authorised distributor or installer in United States: warranty cover on solar hardware is normally honoured through the channel you bought from, so confirm who supports EG4 locally before ordering.

EG4 Solar Charge Controller MPPT | 500VDC 100A | MPPT100-48HV — frequently asked questions

How much does EG4 Solar Charge Controller MPPT | 500VDC 100A | MPPT100-48HV cost?

EG4 Solar Charge Controller MPPT | 500VDC 100A | MPPT100-48HV is listed at $ 450 (USD) for United States. The figure is indicative — solar prices move with supply, duties and exchange rates, and each distributor sets its own margin — so confirm the current price with a supplier before ordering.

Who makes EG4 Solar Charge Controller MPPT | 500VDC 100A | MPPT100-48HV?

EG4 Solar Charge Controller MPPT | 500VDC 100A | MPPT100-48HV is a EG4 product, listed under charge controllers with model reference 1570006. The EG4 brand page lists the rest of its range so you can compare across the catalogue.

Is EG4 Solar Charge Controller MPPT | 500VDC 100A | MPPT100-48HV right for my system?

That depends on what it has to connect to. For a charge controller, check whether it offers a load output, temperature compensation and remote monitoring, type: MPPT or PWM and rated charge current in amps, which must exceed the array's short-circuit current with margin against the rest of your equipment before price enters the decision. Prefer a unit with temperature compensation or a battery temperature sensor if the bank lives somewhere that gets hot or cold.

Where can I buy EG4 Solar Charge Controller MPPT | 500VDC 100A | MPPT100-48HV in United States?
