Such as: the communication module arranged on the logic circuit board is in data communication with the upper computer PC, and the upper computer control software can set the voltage value of each relay branch. And then the detection control circuit controls the action of the relay according to the currently detected voltage on each relay branch, so as to realize the management control of the load electrically connected with the relay. It can be understood by those skilled in the art that the detection control circuit can be implemented by a circuit existing in the field, and detailed description of a specific implementation manner of the detection control circuit is omitted here.
Meanwhile, in the load classification management controller 100 according to the embodiment of the present application, the number of the plurality of relays is consistent with the number of the loads currently connected to the photovoltaic power supply system, and the plurality of relays correspond to the plurality of connected loads one to one. The input end of each relay is electrically connected with the control output end of the detection control circuit, and the output end of each relay is respectively suitable for electrically connecting the corresponding load, so that when the detection control circuit controls the corresponding load to be powered off or continuously powered on, the relay of the load can be electrically connected through control, and the relay is switched off or switched on.

The shape of the fixing frame 130 may be a rectangular shape as shown in fig. 1 and 2, or may be other shapes as long as the fixing frame can be matched with the housing 110. Meanwhile, the fixing frame 130 may be made of the same material as the heat sink 120. Such as: the fixing frame 130 and the heat sink 120 may be made of aluminum alloy or copper.
And, the side frame 132 of the fixing frame 130 is narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, so that the side frame 132 of the fixing frame 130 is partially wrapped on the outer side wall of the housing 110.

Specifically, referring to fig. 1 and 2, the upper frame 131 of the fixing frame 130 is provided with two mounting ears 150. Correspondingly, two mounting lugs 150 are also arranged at the bottom end of the housing 110, so that the four mounting lugs 150 are respectively located at four corners of the load classification management controller 100 according to the embodiment of the present application, and a four-corner rectangular structure is formed.
In addition, it should be noted that, in a possible implementation, a circuit breaker adapted to be electrically connected between the driving power source and the power supply circuit is further included. The circuit breaker and the housing 110 are of a split structure.
In order to more clearly describe the load classification management controller 100 of the embodiment of the present application, the installation and use steps of the load classification management controller 100 of the embodiment of the present application are described in detail below.
First, the load classification management controller 100 is fixedly mounted to the chassis back panel 140 through the mounting ears 150 using 4 self-tapping screws. The battery power supply is then connected to a small dc breaker with a cable (red + black-) above 22-14 AWG. Then, with the circuit breaker in the off state, the power is connected from the circuit breaker lower port to Bat + Bat- (red + black-) (i.e., the input terminal of the power supply circuit) of the load classification management smart controller 100 with a 22-14AWG cable.
The three-way relay output is then connected to the device to be controlled (i.e., the load) using a cable. And then the cable is used for connecting RS485 communication to PC control software. The RS485 of the intelligent controller 100 for load hierarchical management is connected and communicated with the RS485 of the software of the PC controller 100, so that the relay action of the intelligent controller 100 for load hierarchical management can be realized. The PC control software can be directly realized by adopting the existing control software.
And after all the connections are checked again, closing the circuit breaker to electrify the intelligent load hierarchical management controller 100 and observing the change of the indicator lights. After the controller 100 is powered on, the PC control software connected through communication can read the operation data of the intelligent controller 100 for load classification management to see whether the operation data is correct or not.
It should be noted that, although the load classification management controller 100 as described above is described by taking fig. 1 and fig. 2 as an example, those skilled in the art will understand that the present application should not be limited thereto. In fact, the user can flexibly set the structure of each component in the load hierarchical management controller 100 according to personal preference and/or practical application scenarios, as long as the functions of hierarchical control of the load and real-time heat dissipation can be achieved.
