Product Overview

The BRAVO AIR 30 is a 12V PWM charge controller rated for 30 amps of solar input, built around PWM (pulse-width modulation) charging with MOSFET switching for efficient, stable output. Unlike Rich Solar's BRAVO PRO MPPT line, this is a 12V-only controller without automatic 24V system detection — sized for standard 12V off-grid setups in RVs, trailers, campers, vans, and boats.

Bluetooth connectivity is built directly into the controller, rather than requiring a separate add-on module like the BT-1, giving you remote monitoring from a smartphone alongside the unit's onboard LED status indicators and battery type selection. Intelligent multi-stage charging adapts to your connected battery, with broad compatibility across Flooded, AGM, GEL, Calcium, and LiFePO4 chemistries. For lithium batteries specifically, auto BMS activation simplifies setup by automatically engaging the appropriate battery management interaction rather than requiring manual configuration.

Protection covers reverse polarity and short circuit conditions at either the panel or battery side, along with over-temperature protection during charging that engages at 185°F. An optional external Battery Temperature Sensor (BTS) is available separately for temperature-compensated charging based on the battery's actual temperature rather than ambient conditions near the controller. The housing is plastic (PC) with an IP22 rating — protected against limited dust and dripping water from above, but not rated for genuinely wet or exposed mounting locations. Power terminals accept up to #8AWG stranded wire with a specified torque of 6.2–7.1 in-lb, and the controller mounts vertically to a wall surface.

Compatibility note: This controller is 12V-only and does not include automatic 24V detection — confirm your system voltage before ordering. It carries an IP22 rating, protecting against limited dust and dripping water from above only; choose a sheltered, indoor-style mounting location rather than direct outdoor or wet exposure. The external Battery Temperature Sensor (BTS) is sold separately and is optional. As a PWM controller, panel voltage should closely match battery voltage for efficient charging.

Frequently Asked Questions

Clear answers to common questions about this product, setup, compatibility, and use.

What panel-array limits must be checked before connecting the BRAVO AIR 30? The official limits list published PV voltage limit or range Max. 25 VDC. Check the final series-parallel array against voltage, current, and power simultaneously, including open-circuit voltage in the lowest expected temperature. A panel layout can fit the wattage recommendation and still exceed the controller's voltage or current limit. What tradeoff comes with using PWM regulation in the BRAVO AIR 30? This is a PWM controller, so panel voltage should be closely matched to the nominal battery-charging system rather than designed like a high-voltage MPPT string. PWM can be a simple, economical fit for smaller matched arrays, but it does not convert excess panel voltage into additional charging current the way MPPT does. What battery profile must be confirmed before using the BRAVO AIR 30? RICH SOLAR lists: Supports: Flooded, AGM, GEL, Calcium, LiFePO4. Confirm the selected profile, charge voltages, temperature behavior, BMS limits, and equalization rules against the exact battery manufacturer. A chemistry name by itself is not enough to approve the settings. Will the BRAVO AIR 30 deliver its full rated charging current throughout the day? Max. 30 A is the published charging or controller-current figure, not a guaranteed all-day output. Actual battery current depends on usable panel power, sunlight, array voltage, battery voltage, charging stage, battery acceptance, temperature, wiring loss, and any loads consuming solar energy while charging. Will the BRAVO AIR 30 need a BT-1 or another add-on for phone data? The official page lists built-in Bluetooth or direct app support for this exact model. Confirm the required application and supported settings, but a separate Bluetooth dongle should not be assumed necessary when the listed controller itself provides the radio. How sheltered should the BRAVO AIR 30 remain with its IP22 protection grade? IP22 is the published enclosure or protection grade for this exact controller. Use it to judge exposure rather than assuming every “RV,” “marine,” or “waterproof” controller can be mounted anywhere. Protect connections, follow the specified mounting orientation, preserve cooling, and avoid conditions beyond the rating. What grounding and terminal details distinguish the BRAVO AIR 30's installation? The listed mounting method is Vertical wall mounting. These details must match the complete DC design; use correctly sized conductors, torque, fusing, disconnects, and polarity rather than copying an installation for a different controller.
