SmartSolar MPPT 150/85-MC-4 VE.Can is a solar charge controller with maximum power point tracking (MPPT) for 12/24/48 V batteries, with a charge current of 85 A and a maximum PV open-circuit voltage of 150 V. The built-in Bluetooth, the VE.Direct port and VE.Can allow configuration via VictronConnect and connection to a GX device.
MPPT technology continuously monitors the voltage and current of the solar panels (PV) and tracks the maximum power point; the benefit is most visible when the sky is partly cloudy and the light intensity changes constantly. The controller can also recharge a deeply discharged battery that is not permanently sulfated or otherwise damaged, and can operate with a battery voltage from 0 V.
With built-in Bluetooth, the controller is configured and monitored remotely via VictronConnect.
The charge algorithm is fully programmable, with eight preprogrammed algorithms selectable with a rotary switch, and the controller has an internal temperature sensor, passive cooling, over-temperature protection with power derating, and protection against short circuit and reverse polarity on the photovoltaic array. The controller uses advanced detection of the maximum power points in case of partial shading, when the current-voltage curve may have two or more maximum power points, and locks onto the optimal one. A Smart Battery Sense sensor or a BMV-712 battery monitor can communicate the battery voltage and temperature to one or more controllers. The PV connection uses MC4 connectors (three pairs), with a maximum PV current of 30 A per connector. Selecting a 36 V battery voltage requires a software tool.
