MPPT solar controller Victron Energy SmartSolar 150/100-Tr VE.Can

The SmartSolar solar controller processes the energy from the solar panels and stores it in the batteries, maximizing solar gains, intelligently maintaining battery health and extending battery life. The SmartSolar solar controller can recharge even a severely discharged battery, as it can operate with battery voltages as low as 0 volts, provided the cells are not permanently sulfated or otherwise damaged.

Main features:

Ultra fast MPPT technology:

The controller continuously monitors the voltage and current from the solar panels and, thanks to MPPT technology, extracts maximum energy from them, which is especially beneficial in variable solar radiation intensity. MPPT technology provides up to 30% higher energy gain compared to PWM solar controllers and up to 10% higher gain compared to slower MPPT controllers.

Main features:

Ultra fast MPPT technology:

The controller continuously monitors the voltage and current from the solar panels and, thanks to MPPT technology, extracts maximum energy from them, which is especially beneficial when the solar radiation intensity varies. MPPT technology provides up to 30% higher energy gain compared to PWM solar controllers and up to 10% higher gain compared to slower MPPT controllers.

Remote monitoring and control:

If your installation is connected to the internet using a GX device, the VRM portal provides anytime, anywhere access to your devices.

Built-in Bluetooth:

With built-in Bluetooth, the SmartSolar solar controller can pair with your smartphone or other device via the VictronConnect app to set up, monitor, or update your system.

VE.Direct connector:

VE.Direct is used to connect to your GX, PC, or other devices.

VE.Can ports:

Two RJ45 ports on the VE.Can controllers, allow communication between multiple Victron products.

With VE.Can support, the controllers can be connected to various devices such as:

GX devices - for monitoring and control.

Multiple VE.Can solar chargers - for synchronized charging.

Multiple VE.Can solar chargers, other VE.Can products and/or GX devices - for a variety of applications.

Superior conversion efficiency:

The controller has excellent conversion efficiency. The maximum efficiency exceeds 98%. One advantage of the high efficiency is that the controller has no cooling fan and maximum output current is guaranteed up to an ambient temperature of 40 °C (104 °F).

Other features:

natural passive cooling

automatic battery voltage detection

overheating protection and power reduction at high temperature

flexible charging algorithm

internal temperature sensor compensates for absorption temperature and maintenance charging voltage

Optional external battery voltage and temperature sensing via Bluetooth

Smart Battery Sense or BMV-712 Smart Battery Monitor can be used to read the battery voltage and temperature of one or more SmartSolar regulators

Fully discharged battery recovery function

Initiates charging even if the battery is fully discharged

reconnects to a fully discharged Li-ion battery with integrated disconnect function
