The Victron SmartSolar charge controller is installed between your solar panels and your battery bank to maximize energy harvest as efficiently as possible. By constantly monitoring the voltage and current output of your solar panels, this technology ensures that every drop of available power is rinsed out of your panels and stored in your batteries.
Ultra-fast Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT): Improves energy harvest by up to 30% compared to PWM controllers and up to 10% compared to slower MPPT units, especially during cloudy days when light intensity changes constantly.
Advanced Detection for Partial Shading: Unlike conventional controllers that might lock onto a weak power point during shading, the SmartSolar algorithm always locks onto the optimum point to maximize power intake.
Outstanding Efficiency: Exceeds 98% conversion efficiency with no cooling fan required.
Fully Programmable: Features 8 pre-programmed charge algorithms selectable via a rotary switch, or you can create your own custom settings.
3-Stage Charging: Automatically manages Bulk, Absorption, and Float stages to maintain battery health.
Real-Time Bluetooth Monitoring: Use the VictronConnect app on your smartphone or Bluetooth-enabled device to wirelessly control, monitor, and update your system.
Extensive Electronic Protection: Includes safety devices against overheating, output short circuits, polarity reversal, and PV reverse current.
Temperature Compensation: An internal sensor adjusts charging voltage based on temperature; if the system exceeds 40°C, the controller automatically reduces output current to protect the components.
