- Solar Diode Anti-Reverse One Way Diode MD 110A(100Amp)-16;Use Voltage Range:AC < 400VAC ;DC 3-1000V;Used in photovoltaics, Solar Energy, Automotive Panels 12V 24V 48V (MD 110A-16)

Was used to make circuit one directional. It worked to prevent camper battery backfeeding voltage to few accessories that were on the same switching solenoid.

This high current rated, isolating diode assembly works well with higher output solar panels. It will however, begin to over heat (when the load draws more than 10 or 20 amperes) if it is not properly heat sunk. I used an old aluminum power supply heat sink (along with some heat sink thermal compound) to significantly improve the diode's operating temperature range and thereby, its operating current carrying capacity. (See the attached photo). Mounting it to a simple aluminum or steel plate should also work well as a heat sink. I would suggest using some type of heat transfer compound (such as Wakefield Thermal Compound - Part Number 120-2) to improve the heat transfer characteristics.

Does as advertised I think doesn’t seem to be an issue for what I needed it for had to do some slight steps with wiring to make it work however works great. Would recommend if you need this capacity have no issues since bought.

I was able to use this Diode in a way it was never meant to be used. I put it on an ONAN GenSet. And it is still working fine.

Does it's job, was a bit confusing at first but now I'm using them to separate charge. I'm a newbie to solar

Pushed up to 15volts, and the drop was only .9 volts after a fuse. That was before my system regulated the power to the necessary 12 volt standard. Handles all my system can safely push—up to 330amps and will still be in 80% heat safety zone—In fact my 200 amp fuse will blow at 320amps; and since I usually run at 125amps, I am super protected. No concern the capacitor will push/surge back the wrong way now.

I have a complicated circuit on the RV with a thorny problem that I wasn't sure how to fix. I believe this is just what the doctor ordered!

I installed this 50amp rated diode in my solar system which has a maximum amperage of about 30. It does stop back-flow of current. However, it gets very hot at far below the rated amperage. With 22 amps flowing, I measured 170 degrees F, which is much too hot to touch. Too hot to touch at anything over 10 amps. I would not want to test what 50 amps would do. I have ordered a 250 amp version and hope that will solve the over-heating issue.

4 stars because its a little bit on the expensive side, but otherwise works well and I like the way it mounts. Using to prevent back feed of capacitors from 700w 12v inverter to my noco onboard charger causing voltage spikes that would set off high voltage alarm on the charger, would buy again.

Excellent produit merci
