Product Description
The solar charge controller Steca Tarom leaves nothing to be desired. In addition to the informative LCD display and the intelligent stage of charge (SoC) determination of the battery (SoC), the charge controller can be connected to the external shunt Steca PA HS200 and the Steca Tarcom data logger. These features make the Tarom most suitable for use in hybrid off-grid systems and telecommunications applications.
The LCD display of the Tarom charge controller provides all the important information about the current operating state. The system parameters may completely be customized according to the specifications of the user.
By using the optionally available remote control PA15, loads may be selectively turned on or off, depending on battery condition. Likewise, power generators or other alternative sources of energy may be driven automatically.

Optional Accessories / Upgrades
The following accessories and upgrades are available for this product. Be sure to choose each desired option when ordering!
Temperature Sensor Steca PA TSK10
The Steca PA TS10 external temperature sensor is required only as long as the battery has to be installed in another room, away from the solar charge controller.
The sensor will be supplied together with a cable of 3.75 m including a plug to connect it to the solar charge controller and a ring terminal for connection to the battery screw.

Current Sensor Steca PA HS200
The Steca PA HS200 is a highly intelligent current sensor with extremely low own consumption.
The Steca PA HS200 comes into play when (e.g.) an inverter is directly connected to the battery and the Steca Tarom or Power Tarom charge controller cannot measure the current consumption. A shunt is also required when an additional generator (e.g. PV, wind or diesel) directly charges the battery without being connected to a Steca Tarom charge controller. The current is measured contact-free via a Hall-effect sensor. The data is transmitted to the charge controller over a cable connection. Up to two Steca PA HS200 shunts can be connected and the measured currents can be selectively added to the charging current, battery current or load current as desired.

Datenlogger Steca Tarcom
The Steca PA Tarcom data logger is connected to the RJ45 interface of the Steca Tarom or Power Tarom charge controller, or via the Steca PA HS200.
The data logger is available in several different versions: as a simple RS232 interface to directly save and read data on the PC or Laptop (Steca PA Tarcom 01), as a data logger with an integrated GSM modem for remote monitoring (Steca PA Tarcom GSM) and as a data logger with an Ethernet interface for connection to a PC network (Steca PA Tarcom Ethernet). The Steca PA Tarcom is delivered with its accompanying software.

Remote Control / Relay Steca PA 15
Remote control to automatic switch on/off consumers or backup energy sources (e.g. fuel generator).
The Steca Tarom and Power Tarom charge controllers send out signals which are modulated on the DC cable and received by the Steca PA 15 remote control. These signals contain information on the batteries' state of charge (SOC). The maximum switching capacity of 15 A can be increased with an auxiliary relay if desired.
