In case of emergency
-high temp
-cells under or over voltage

I need a 12 vdc shunt trip to shutoff the Pvs.

Any advice on which one to buy?

Amps 80

Thank you
 
Pretty sure that you can't use interruptions on PV like that. You can use a manual isolator.

In a dead short situation, PV just maxes out at Imax and stays there.

But you can put a shunt trip in which is activated by something other than current, like a thermostat perhaps.

Still not sure why you would do it though - surely the solar charge controller would have this feature?
 
I wan to cut any voltage / current from my panels in case of emergency automatically.

I dont want any powe to go into my batteries from the charge controller. I have already a manual disconnect but want to have automatic option.
