The Victron SmartSolar MPPT 150/70-Tr VE.Can is a powerful and intelligent MPPT solar charge controller developed for larger solar installations on boats, motorhomes, and off-grid energy systems. With up to 150 V solar panel voltage and 70 A charging current, it can handle larger solar arrays and ensure fast and efficient charging of the battery bank.
The controller uses Victron's ultra-fast MPPT technology, which continuously finds the optimal operating point for the solar panels. This typically provides up to 30% more energy than PWM controllers and better utilization of solar panels under changing light conditions.
With VE.Can communication, multiple controllers can be connected in larger systems, and via Bluetooth and the VictronConnect app, you can monitor and configure the system directly from your smartphone.
