Rated for up to 60 amps of DC output current, the OutBack FM-60 can be used with battery systems from 12 to 60 VDC with PV open-circuit voltage as high as 140 VDC. The FM-60 setpoints are fully adjustable to allow use with virtually any battery type, chemistry and charging profile. The OutBack FM60 allows you to use a higher output voltage PV array with a lower voltage battery – such as charging a 12- or 24-VDC battery with a 48-VDC PV array. This reduces wire size and power loss from the PV array to the battery/inverter location and can maximize the performance of your PV system. Array size can be up to 707 watts when charging a 12-volt battery, 1,500 watts when charging at 24 volts and 3,000 watts when charging at 48 volts.

Comes standard with an easy-to-use-and-understand display of PV system performance. The 4-line, 80-character backlit LCD display is also used for programming and monitoring of the system’s operation. They can be connected to the OutBack MATE system controller and display to allow monitoring of up to eight FM-60 controllers from a distant location – up to 300 feet away. The MATE also includes an optoisolated RS232 port for connection to a PC computer for data logging and system monitoring. ETL Listed.
