¿can i Use the MPPT Controller without battery?, for a load powered in 24VDC

Can I use the MPPT Charger as DC-DC Converter?,it will be for loads powered in 24VDC.

So:

We will connect in a MPPT Charger PV terminal as Input DC Voltage range from 43 to 56Volts

In the battery terminal we will connect our loads in 24VDC.


I hope to have your support soon

if its not a super small battery; then yes, it will probably work.


The point I'm trying to make is that we design and test the product for situations with a reasonably sized battery.


And not for no battery, or having only a super small battery just because thats necessary.


The battery is more than just a reference, its there to create (voltage) stability.

I'd expect that it would, yet. But it will depend on the size and the type of the load.

I'm really sorry, but I'll never give a straight yes/no answer to these questions. You'll really have to try yourself. Perhaps if you find a good quality distributor, they let you try with a unit at their warehouse.
