Victron SmartSolar MPPT 150/85-Tr VE.Can

Victron SmartSolar MPPT 150/85-Tr VE.Can

Product Features:

• Bluetooth Smart built-in
  • The wireless solution to set-up, monitor, update and synchronise SmartSolar Charge Controllers.
• VE.Direct or VE.Can
  • For a wired data connection to a Color Control GX, other GX products, PC or other devices.
• Ultra-fast Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) 
  • Especially in case of a clouded sky, when light intensity is changing continuously, an ultra-fast MPPT controller will improve energy harvest by up to 30 % compared to PWM charge controllers and by up to 10 % compared to slower MPPT controllers.
• Advanced Maximum Power Point Detection in case of partial shading conditions  
  •  If partial shading occurs, two or more maximum power (MPP) points may be present on the power-voltage curve. Conventional MPPTs tend to lock to a local MPP, which may not be the optimum MPP. The innovative SmartSolar algorithm will always maximize energy harvest by locking to the optimum MPP.
• Flexible charge algorithm 
  •  Fully programmable charge algorithm, and eight pre-programmed algorithms, selectable with a rotary switch (see manual for details).
• Extensive electronic protection
  • Over-temperature protection and power derating when temperature is high.
    PV short circuit and PV reverse polarity protection. PV reverse current protection.
• Internal temperature sensor and optional external battery voltage, temperature and current sensing via Bluetooth 
  • A Smart Battery Sense, a BMV-712 Smart Battery Monitor or a SmartShunt can be used to communicate battery voltage and temperature (and current, in case of a BMV 712 or a SmartShunt) to one or more SmartSolar Charge Controllers.
• Synchronized parallel charging with VE.Can or Bluetooth
  • Up to 25 units can be synchronized with VE.Can, and up to 10 units with Bluetooth.
• Fully discharged battery recovery function 
  • Will initiate charging even if the battery has been discharged to zero volts.
    Will reconnect to a fully discharged Li-ion battery with integrated disconnect function.

NOTES:

1a – If more PV power is connected, the controller will limit input power

1b – The PV voltage must exceed Vbat + 5 V for the controller to start. Thereafter the minimum PV voltage is Vbat + 1 V

2 – A PV array with a higher short circuit current may damage the controller.

3 – MC4 models: several splitter pairs may be needed to parallel the strings of solar panels. Maximum current per MC4 connector: 30 A (the MC4 connectors are parallel connected to one MPPT tracker)
