OutBack Power Technologies -- the POWER to change the world.

The FLEXmax family of charge controllers is the latest innovation in Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) charge controllers from OutBack Power Technologies. The innovative FLEXmax MPPT software algorithm is both continuous and active, increasing your photovoltaic array power yield up to 30% compared to non-MPPT controllers. Thanks to active cooling and intelligent thermal management cooling, both FLEXmax charge controllers can operate at their full maximum current rating, 60 Amps or 80 Amps respectively, in ambient temperatures as high as 104°F (40°C).

Included in all of the FLEXmax Charge Controllers are the revolutionary features first developed by OutBack Power, including support for a wide range of nominal battery voltages and the ability to step-down a higher voltage solar array to recharge a lower voltage battery bank. A built-in, backlit 80 character display shows the current status and logged system performance data for the last 128 days at the touch of a button. The integrated OutBack network communications allows FLEXmax series Charge Controllers to be remotely programmed and monitored via a MATE system display and provides unrivaled complete system integration.

The new OutBack Power Radian Series GS8048 inverter/charger provides a comprehensive answer for Grid-interactive and Standalone power systems. Based upon a proven foundation of reliable technology, but engineered from the ground up to simplify the design, distribution, installation and implementation of energy storage, the standardized structure and integration with the GSLC load center make it easy to provide a successful solution to any power requirement, anywhere.

Incorporating a powerful DC to AC true sine wave inverter, battery charger and dual AC inputs, its 120/240V split-phase power provides a total power solution which seamlessly integrates with traditional North American wiring practices.

Unique dual power module design provides high efficiency at both low and full power operation, while providing redundancy for critical applications. The modular design also allows easy field servicing of installed systems.

Complete system interface via the OutBack HUB system communications manager enables the Radian Series GS8048 to be connected with other OutBack Power electronics providing industry leading integration and a robust, scalable power solution. Up to 10 units can be connected in parallel for systems up to 80kW continuous power output.

The Radian Series utilizes a durable stainless steel face with galvanized steel enclosure, providing you with OutBack’s signature ruggedness but with a sleek, compact and modern appearance.

The new MATE3 System Display and Controller makes it easier than ever to program and monitor your complete OutBack Power system. An intuitive user interface and integrated system configuration wizard make system setup and programming quick and seamless. The ability to set unique multi-level user passwords allows you to secure critical system settings from unintended changes while still allowing open access to necessary functions. Through the use of a single MATE3 you can remotely manage and monitor multiple inverter/chargers, charge controllers and DC monitoring devices.

The MATE3 is packed full of features to make system management simple. The easy-to-read graphical LCD display is backlit for dark operating conditions. Improved tactile buttons and a user programmable “favorite” key give you immediate access to the features you want, while an intuitive scroll wheel interface allows for easy adjustment of system set points. Expandable SD card memory allows you to increase data logging capacity as well as upgrade units in the field.

A built-in clock and calendar function enables timer-based programming of inverter and charger operation. This permits you to set the system to work with time-of-day power rates or to limit a generator’s run time to a specific time period of the day or week. All of your settings are stored in permanent memory to eliminate the need to reprogram in the event of a system shutdown or battery replacement. The MATE3 is an Internet enabled device — simply connecting to the Internet will allow full remote system monitoring via an easy-to-use web interface.

The MATE3 system display and controller is the next generation of communication interface, offering powerful insight into every aspect of your OutBack Power system.

The OutBack Power Technologies FLEXnet DC is the ultimate in DC System monitoring devices. Our integrated networked communications make valuable, usable data available from your system, viewable on an OutBack MATE communications device, providing you with the answers you need concerning your system's health, performance and efficiency.

Battery Status Screen - Easily see your system's current condition with this at-a-glance display. This screen shows an easy to interpret "fuel gauge" style status bar, current state-of-charge and whether you are currently charging or discharging your batteries. This is useful for those system owners who want a way to quickly understand the current state of their battery bank.

Now Summary Screen - Monitor the amount of power your system is currently producing and consuming as well as the amount of power going IN and OUT of your battery bank. This screen also displays your battery bank's voltage and current state-of-charge, providing you with real-time production monitoring of DC sources, such as a solar array or small wind turbine, as well as consumption by loads.

Today Summary Screen - Monitor the cumulative energy your system has produced and consumed as well as the total amount of energy that has gone to charging your batteries today. This screen also displays today's lowest state-of-charge and allows you to see how your overall system production compares to system consumption.

History Summary Screen - Review historical energy production/consumption data for the most recent 128 days, including the minimum battery state-of-charge reached for each day. This screen can be used to watch power system production and consumption trends.
