Energy SmartSolar MPPT 150/45 Solar Charge Controller (MPPT 150 1 45)

Victron SmartSolar MPPT 150/45 Charge Controller

The Victron SmartSolar MPPT 150/45 is a high-performance solar charge controller designed to harvest the maximum amount of energy from your photovoltaic (PV) array to charge your battery bank as efficiently as possible. This unit is ideal for mid-to-large marine solar installations where shadow handling and high conversion efficiency are critical.

Key Features

• Ultra-Fast Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT): By constantly monitoring the voltage and current output of your solar panels, this technology ensures that every drop of available power is extracted—improving energy harvest by up to 30% compared to PWM controllers and up to 10% compared to slower MPPT controllers.
• Advanced Detection for Partial Shading: If partial shading occurs (such as from a mast or rigging), the innovative SmartSolar algorithm avoids locking onto a local "false" power point and instead maximizes energy harvest by locking onto the absolute optimum point.
• Built-in Bluetooth Smart: Monitor, update, and configure the controller wirelessly using your smartphone, tablet, or other Bluetooth-enabled device via the VictronConnect app.
• Exceptional Efficiency: Exceeds 98% conversion efficiency with no cooling fan required, providing full output current up to an ambient temperature of 40°C (104°F).
• Flexible Charge Algorithm: Includes eight pre-programmed algorithms selectable with a rotary switch, or fully customize the settings to match your specific battery chemistry (Lead-acid, AGM, Gel, or Lithium).
• Comprehensive Electronic Protection: Safeguards your system against over-temperature, output short circuits, battery polarity reversal, and PV reverse current.
