MPPT solar controller Victron Energy SmartSolar RS 450/100-MC4

The MPPT RS is a solar charge controller designed for operation with PV voltages between 80 - 450 V and designed to charge 48V batteries.

Main features:

Ultra-fast solar charge controller with maximum power point tracking (MPPT):

MPPT RS SmartSolar is a 48 V solar charge controller with up to 450 V DC PV input and 100 A. It is used in on-grid and off-grid solar applications where maximum battery charging power is required.

Multiple independent MPPT tracking inputs:

Using multiple MPPT trackers, you can optimize the solar system for maximum performance for a given site.

Isolated PV connections for additional safety:

Full galvanic isolation between the PV connection and the battery provides additional overall system safety.

Wide MPPT voltage range:

80 - 450 V DC PV operating range, with a starting voltage of 120 V DC PV.

Low weight, efficient and quiet operation:

Thanks to high-frequency technology and a new design, this powerful charger weighs only 7.9 kg

In addition, it has excellent efficiency, low standby power consumption and very quiet operation.

Display and Bluetooth:

The display shows battery and controller parameters. The parameters can be accessed using a smartphone or other Bluetooth-enabled device. In addition, Bluetooth can be used to set up the system and change settings with the VictronConnect app.

Monitor PV insulation resistance for peace of mind at higher voltages:

The MPPT RS continuously monitors the PV array and can detect if there are faults that reduce insulation

panels to dangerous levels.

VE.Can and VE.Direct port:

To connect to the GX device for system monitoring, data logging and remote firmware updates. VE.Can allows you to connect up to 25 units in parallel and synchronize their charging.

I/O connection:

Programmable connection of relay, temperature sensor, auxiliary, digital input and voltage sensor. The remote input can accept Victron smallBMS and other BMSs with a charge-enabled signal.

Other features:

Advanced detection of maximum power under partial shading conditions

excellent conversion efficiency

maximum efficiency of 96%.

flexible charging algorithm

Fully programmable charging algorithm and eight reprogrammable battery presets.

extensive electronic protection

overheating protection and power reduction at high temperature.
