I should have included that the two Arco modules wired in series are M 51 model, and they have 35 cells each. I had to wolf my lunch and go out and count the cells, you'd think I could remember,
I've had these modules a long time, probably bought them from Dave. Lance

But it's been doing the job for several years. The company responded to my questions saying this controller is specifically made to charge  24 V,36V,and 48V batteries from a single grid tie module.
