Victron BlueSolar PWM Charge Controller LCD&USB 48-10 10A

Product Description

The Victron BlueSolar LCD&USB 48-10 10A is a PWM charge controller specifically designed for 48 V battery banks that require a simple, reliable solution with integrated utilities. It features an easy-to-read LCD screen for configuring key parameters, dual 5 V USB ports (2 A total) for powering small devices, and a day/night timer that automates lighting without the need for external controllers. It uses a three-stage charging algorithm that protects the battery and an output with low voltage disconnect (LVD) to prevent deep discharges. Its common positive architecture, low self-consumption, and compact format simplify installation in small panels, while maintaining the safety and performance characteristic of Victron.

Main Features

• 10 A charging current at 48 V for compact systems.
• LCD screen with intuitive menus for voltages, LVD, and day/night timer.
• Dual USB 5 V/2 A total for mobile phones, routers, or sensors.
• Three-stage algorithm optimized for lead-acid: initial 58.0 V, absorption 56.8 V, and float 55.2 V.
• LVD at 44.8 V with manual reconnection at 50.4 V or automatic at 52.4 V.
• Maximum PV voltage 100 V, common positive, and IP20 with self-consumption <10 mA.

Advantages or Benefits

• Protects the 48 V battery by reducing sulfation and over/under-charging thanks to stage control.
• Prevents blackouts and damage with adjustable low voltage disconnect from the screen itself.
• Fewer components: the integrated timer simplifies autonomous lighting projects.
• Quick installation and minimal maintenance with accessible terminals and lightweight format.
• Integrated USB eliminates the need for additional sources for low-power auxiliary loads.

Purpose or Applications

Designed for 48 V solar lighting, signage, small remote stations, auxiliary telecom, boats and campers with a 48 V bank, or any system that prioritizes simplicity, reliability, and low self-consumption.

Technical Specifications

Compatibilities

Suitable for PV strings with Voc ≤100 V and lead-acid banks (AGM/GEL/flooded) at 48 V. Use with LiFePO₄ only with BMS and proper control. Usual accessories: DC fuses/fuse holders, DC disconnectors and surge protectors, wiring according to current.

Victron BlueSolar LCD&USB 48-10 10A combines control, protection, and practical utilities to modernize small 48 V systems with maximum reliability.
