A solar charger gathers energy from your solar panels and stores it in your batteries. Using the latest, fastest technology, SmartSolar maximises this energy-harvest, driving it intelligently to achieve full charge
in the shortest possible time. SmartSolar maintains battery health and extends battery life.
The SmartSolar Charge Controller will even recharge a severely depleted battery. It can operate with a battery voltage as low as 0 Volts, provided the cells are not permanently sulphated or otherwise damaged.
On a cloudy day, when light intensity is changing continuously, an ultra-fast MPPT controller will improve energy harvest by up to 30 % compared to PWM charge controllers and by up to 10 % compared to slower
MPPT controllers.
If partial shading occurs, two or more maximum power points may be present on the power-voltage curve. Conventional MPPTs tend to lock to a local MPP, which may not be the optimum MPP. The innovative
BlueSolar algorithm will always maximize energy harvest by locking to the optimum MPP.
The device has a fully programmable charge algorithm (see the software page on the Victron Energy website), and eight pre-programmed algorithms, selectable with a rotary switch.
