The Smartsolar MPPT 150/85-Tr VE.CAN from Victron Energy is part of the latest generation of smart solar controllers from the Dutch premium manufacturer. Ultra-fast power tracking and automatic power point detection in the event of partial shading are just two of the many highlights of this new device class. The devices in classes 150/45-Tr VE.CAN to 150/100-Tr VE.CAN are also available as versions with MC4 connections on the solar side of the charge controller instead of screw terminals. In addition, this model is capable of parallel operation with other controllers of the same type.
In comparison to the BlueSolar series, the Bluetooth module is already permanently integrated into the controller in the Smartsolar family, making the smart dongle superfluous in this device. Another new feature is the optional LCD display, which can simply be attached to the SmartSolar 150/85-tr as required. The display then provides all the important information about the controller. If required, the MPPT WireBox-XL Tr from Victron Energy is the ideal addition to your SmartSolar charge controller. It securely covers the cable entries and connection terminals of the controller, protecting them from external influences and contact.

smart data communication via VE.Direct and Bluetooth module
Modern Apple and Android smartphones, tablets, Macbooks and other devices can be connected thanks to the permanently integrated Bluetooth module and the free Victron Connect APP. The app can then be used to configure many important functions of the SmartSolar controller. Of course, it also provides all important parameters such as the current solar yield in real time.
VE.Can: the solution for multiple controllers
With VE.Can, up to 25 devices can be synchronized, with Bluetooth up to 10 devices
Automatic detection of the maximum power point
In the event of partial shading, there may be two or more maximum power points (MPP) on the current-voltage curve. Conventional MPPTs tend to adjust to a local MPP. However, this may not be the optimum MPP. The innovative algorithm of the SmartSolar device will always maximize the energy yield by adjusting to the optimal MPP.
High-speed MPP tracker
Especially in overcast conditions, when light intensity is constantly changing, an extremely fast MPPT controller improves energy yield by up to 30% compared to PWM charge controllers and up to 10% compared to slower MPPT controllers.
Comprehensive electronic protection
Protection against reverse polarity battery connection
PV reverse current blocking
Protection against overheating of the device
Protection against short circuits
Protection against reverse polarity PV connection
VE.Direct data communication port
VE.Direct in text mode transmits all important parameters to other devices connected to the charge controller every second and thus offers the option of communicating with additional GX Color Control system panels. The VE.Direct connection is intended for products where full Canbus integration (VE-Direct) would be too expensive. You can find more information about VE.Direct in our Victron Energy brand store.
