Steca PA 15
Remote control, accessories for Steca Power Tarom
Description
The Steca Power Tarom charge controllers send out signals (125 kHz at 300 baud) that are modulated on the DC line and received by the Steca PA 15 remote control.
These signals contain information about the state of charge (SOC) of the battery. The Steca PA 15 has five different operating modes (see below), which can be set using five different jumper positions. The maximum switching capacity of 15 A can be optionally expanded to up to 200 A with a Steca PA EV200 DC relay.
