Solar Power Meets Intelligent DC-UPS Control
Introducing the ADEL System SOL30 MPPT solar charge controller for off-grid and hybrid industrial power systems.
The ADEL System SOL30 integrates solar charging directly into compatible DC-UPS installations, helping engineers combine photovoltaic power, battery charging and load continuity within one coordinated system. This approach is made even more efficient when using the SOL30 solar charge controller.
Designed for off-grid and hybrid photovoltaic applications, the SOL30 uses Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) technology to extract the maximum available energy from the connected solar panel as conditions change throughout the day. With peak efficiency of up to 98%, the controller helps maximise the energy harvested at low, medium and high-power levels. For industrial solar systems, the SOL30 solar charge controller delivers reliable, efficient performance.
When solar power is available, the system can prioritise photovoltaic energy to support the connected load and recharge the battery. This reduces reliance on the mains supply while maintaining backup power for critical equipment.
Connected DC-UPS Integration
The SOL30 communicates with compatible ADEL System DC-UPS units through ADELBus. Battery settings, including boost, float and recovery parameters, transfer automatically from the DC-UPS to the solar charge controller.
This shared configuration helps prevent charging mismatches, reduces setup time and ensures that the SOL30 follows the battery management settings applied throughout the system.The controller supports several battery technologies, including open lead-acid, AGM, Gel, lithium-ion and LiFePO4. It is particularly suited for use with the ADEL System CBI6024A and CBI6012A, creating a compact solar-ready DC-UPS platform in which the photovoltaic input, battery and load operate as one coordinated system. In these scenarios, the SOL30 solar charge controller optimises the energy flow between the batteries and equipment.
Monitoring and Diagnostics
Bidirectional ADELBus communication provides access to real-time monitoring, configuration, diagnostics and firmware updates. Status LEDs and fault codes support faster commissioning and troubleshooting, while data logging stores up to 10 days of detailed power and load information when the SOL30 is connected to a compatible CBI60 unit.
This system visibility enables engineers to assess photovoltaic performance, verify system operation and identify potential maintenance requirements.

Designed for Industrial Solar Applications
The SOL30 provides a compact solar charging stage for industrial control panels and remote equipment. Its slim DIN-rail format reduces the need for separate wall-mounted controllers, additional enclosures and complex wiring. Above all, the SOL30 solar charge controller streamlines integration into space-limited panels.
Typical applications include remote industrial control cabinets, telemetry equipment, CCTV and access-control systems, solar-powered lighting, environmental monitoring, sensors, automation loads and infrastructure without a stable mains supply.
The controller can also support lighting and load-scheduling applications where equipment must operate according to photovoltaic availability or programmed events.
A Coordinated Approach to Solar Backup Power
Integrating MPPT solar charging with an intelligent DC-UPS helps reduce system complexity while maintaining consistent battery management, load continuity and system visibility. In summary, across demanding industrial settings, using a SOL30 solar charge controller ensures a reliable, consistent approach to solar energy management.
Relec Electronics can support the selection and integration of the SOL30 alongside compatible ADEL System DC-UPS units, batteries and DIN-rail power products.
