Manufacturer’s Description
Victron SmartSolar MPPT – available in MC4 or TR versions – 12/24/36/48V auto-select solar charge controller with ultra-fast MPPT tracking. Available with MC4 PV connectors or screw terminals (TR). Supplied without display.
Ultra-Fast Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT)
Especially under cloudy conditions, when light intensity changes frequently, an extremely fast MPPT controller increases energy yield by up to 30% compared to PWM charge controllers and up to 10% compared to slower MPPT models.
Advanced Maximum Power Point Detection under Partial Shading
In cases of partial shading, two or more maximum power points (MPPs) may appear on the current-voltage curve. Conventional MPPTs tend to lock onto a local MPP, which may not be optimal. The innovative BlueSolar algorithm always maximizes energy harvest by tracking the optimal MPP.
Outstanding Efficiency
Efficient passive cooling without a fan. Maximum efficiency over 98%. Delivers full charging current up to +40°C (104°F). The internal temperature sensor automatically compensates charge and float voltages based on temperature.
Flexible Charging Algorithms
Fully programmable charging algorithm (see software information), plus eight pre-programmed algorithms selectable via a rotary switch (see the manual for details).
Comprehensive Electronic Protection
Over-temperature protection and automatic power reduction at high temperatures. Protection against PV short-circuit, reverse polarity, and reverse current.
Internal Temperature Sensor
Automatically compensates charge and float voltages according to temperature.
Real-Time Data Display Options
- Apple and Android smartphones, tablets, and other devices: use the VE.Direct to Bluetooth Smart Dongle
- Color Control Panel
Built-in Bluetooth Smart: No Dongle Required
Wireless solution for setup, monitoring, and updating the controller using Apple or Android smartphones, tablets, or other devices.
VE.Direct
For a wired data connection with a Color Control panel, PC, or other devices.
Remote On/Off Control
For example, to connect to a VE.BUS BMS.
Programmable Relay
Can be configured (e.g., via smartphone) to trigger an alarm or other events.
Optional: Plug-in LCD Display
Simply remove the rubber seal protecting the connector on the front of the controller and plug in the display. (Display sold separately)
