Victron MPPT 150/70 – SmartSolar Charge Controller – Tr VE.Can

Take control of your solar power system with the Victron Energy SmartSolar MPPT 150/70-Tr VE.Can Charge Controller (SCC115070411).

Designed for demanding off-grid, marine, and RV applications, this intelligent unit is the essential link between your solar panels and your battery bank. It ensures you capture the maximum possible energy, regardless of weather conditions, guaranteeing a powerful and reliable system for your home, boat, or recreational vehicle.

Ultra-Fast MPPT Technology for Superior Harvest

The heart of this controller is its "Ultra-fast Maximum Power Point Tracking" technology. Unlike older, slower solar regulators, the SmartSolar 150/70 constantly sweeps the power-voltage curve of your solar array with incredible speed. This is most noticeable under cloudy skies or when light intensity is rapidly changing, where it can improve your energy harvest by up to 30% compared to a basic PWM controller. Furthermore, Victron’s innovative SmartSolar algorithm features advanced Maximum Power Point Detection to ensure peak efficiency even when your panels are partially shaded. Maximum efficiency exceeds an outstanding 98%, achieved without any cooling fan.

The Smartest Way to Charge Your Batteries

The SmartSolar 150/70-Tr is compatible with 12V, 24V, and 48V battery systems (with 36V selectable manually), making it incredibly versatile. It protects and extends the life of your batteries using a fully programmable, multi-stage adaptive charge algorithm. This intelligent system automatically switches between bulk, absorption, and float stages, optimising charging for all battery types, including Lithium, AGM, Gel, and Flooded. It even features a recovery function that can initiate charging on severely depleted batteries, even those discharged to zero volts (provided they are not permanently damaged).

Seamless Connectivity and Monitoring

With built-in Bluetooth Smart, setting up and monitoring your system is simple using the free VictronConnect app on your smartphone or tablet. View real-time data, historical performance, and adjust settings wirelessly. For larger or more complex installations, the inclusion of both VE.Can and VE.Direct communication ports allows for multi-unit synchronisation (up to 25 units via VE.Can) and connection to a Victron GX device for remote monitoring via the VRM Portal.

Built to Last and Simple to Install

The unit is encased in a robust enclosure with IP43 protection for the electronic components and features screw terminal ('Tr') connections for the PV cable, ensuring a secure installation.
