ProSDtar PS Parallel

The parallel ProStar configuration allows two controllers to share a single battery bank while separately controlling different loads. Each controller is connected to its own solar panel array, while the positive and negative terminals of both controllers are connected to the corresponding terminals of the shared battery bank. The load on each individual controller cannot exceed its rated limit, and any higher load must be connected directly to the battery bank instead. It is not safe to parallel a higher rated load across both controllers' load terminals simultaneously, as one controller turning off could force too much current through the other.

2 ProStar - Parallel Configuration

The parallel ProStar configuration allows separate control over two different loads while sharing the same battery bank. Each
controller is connected to its own PV array. The battery bank(+) is connected to battery(+) of both controllers. Likewise, the battery bank(-)
is connected to battery(-) of both controllers.
The load on each of the controllers is not to exceed the rated limit. If a load of greater current rating is required, connect the load to
the battery bank. Refer to the, ProStar with Load Relay document which explains how to connect a load directly to a battery bank and still
have control over the load by the controller.
Important:
It is not possible to parallel a higher rated load on the load terminals of both controllers. The reason for this is because one controller
may go into LVD first forcing a high current load onto the other controller, damaging the unit.
