| The PWM electronic charge regulator tapers charge to the battery by gradually limiting windcharger current to avoid battery overcharge. When regulating the Windcharger turbine speed is reduced finally to an idle and as fully charged batteries are more likely to occur in high winds this slow mode of operation is safer and reduces wear. |
| Built-in charge splitter to facilitate charging 2 separate sets of batteries. |
| 5 Position switch for LCD display of: Windcharger current, Solar panel current, Net charge current to battery, Battery Voltage 1 & Battery Voltage 2. |
| Charge source shutdown switch – when switched will stop the windcharger from running and solar panel from generating power. NB. This should only be activated in low wind conditions or by slowing the turbine to an idle first. |
| A solar panel with a maximum rating up to 100W may be connected in parallel with the windcharger via a built in terminal. NB. a blocking diode must be fitted to the solar panel to prevent it from drawing current from the windcharger. |
| Access panel to terminals for any one Rutland Windcharger model 913, 910-3 or 503, solar panel, battery bank 1 and battery bank 2. |
| Built-in blocking diode protects the HRDX Controller from other charge sources to the same batteries, eg engine charging |
| LED indicates battery full status. |
