Blue Sky Battery Temperature Sensor

The best charging voltage for your battery varies with temperature. A battery temperature sensor is placed near your battery bank to detect the ambient temperature so your charge controller can be as precise as possible.

Applying the proper charge voltage is critical for achieving optimum battery performance and longevity. The ideal charge voltage required by batteries changes with battery temperature. The battery temperature sensor allows the charge controller to continuously adjust charge voltage based on actual battery temperature. Temperature compensation of charge voltage assures that the battery receives the proper charge voltage as battery temperature changes during normal operation. This can significantly improve your battery life.
