Victron Energy SmartSolar MPPT 150/85-MC4 VE.Can industrial generator

SKU CH-H017-5Z508

A solar charge controller that harvests maximum power from panels up to 150 V and 85 A to charge batteries efficiently

  • Maximises energy harvest with MPPT technology
  • Recharges severely depleted batteries from 0 Volts
  • Maintains battery health to extend service life
  • Remote control and monitoring of all features
  • VE.Can connectivity for system integration

SmartSolar MPPT 150/85-MC4 VE.Can controller

The Victron Energy SmartSolar MPPT 150/85-MC4 VE.Can is a solar charge controller that harvests energy from photovoltaic panels and stores it in batteries. It uses maximum power point tracking to maximise energy harvest under changing light conditions. The unit can recharge a severely depleted battery from 0 Volts if cells are not permanently damaged. VE.Can connectivity allows remote monitoring and control of the system.

Suited for high-voltage solar arrays up to 150 Volts

This controller suits installations with panel voltages up to 150 Volts and a charging current requirement of 85 Amps. It is designed for systems needing intelligent battery management and remote oversight via VE.Can. Buyers who need a higher voltage limit or a greater charging current than 85 Amps should look at a different model.

150 Volt maximum PV input voltage

The 150 Volt maximum PV input voltage is the single specification that determines whether this controller matches your solar array. Arrays with an open-circuit voltage above this value cannot be connected safely. Verify your panel specifications against this limit before purchase.

Questions about this item

What battery voltage range does the SmartSolar MPPT 150/85-MC4 VE.Can require to start charging?

It can operate with a battery voltage as low as 0 Volts, provided the cells are not permanently sulphated or otherwise damaged.

How does the MPPT 150/85-MC4 VE.Can handle fluctuating light conditions compared to older PWM controllers?

MPPT technology constantly monitors panel voltage and current to harvest every drop of available power, which is most noticeable when light intensity changes under partially clouded skies.

How can I verify the SmartSolar MPPT 150/85-MC4 VE.Can is harvesting maximum power after installation?

Remotely monitor the voltage and current output of your solar panels via the VE.Can interface to confirm MPPT is rinsing out every drop of available power for storage.
