SmartSolar MPPT 75/10 : 10A Charge Controller by Victron

Description The Victron SmartSolar MPPT 75/10 is an ideal solution for single solar module systems of up to 100 – 200 Watts on boats, vans, RVs, and cabins. This 10A MPPT charge controller is Bluetooth enabled so you can monitor your system performance on your smartphone. SmartSolar MPPT 75/10 Features… High-speed MPPT tracking Integrated Bluetooth Battery Life function Remote control : via VictronConnect application Programmable charging algorithm to suit any battery chemistry Charging in 3 stages : Bulk – Absorption – Float Internal temperature sensor External temperature and voltage sensor (optional) Fully discharged battery recovery feature The MPPT (Maximum Power Point Tracking) solar charger is connected between the photovoltaic modules and the batteries. Its main function is to get as much energy out of the modules as possible. The SmartSolar MPPT has a very fast control of the maximum power point. It adapts when the sunlight of the panel varies a lot (cloudy day), allowing up to 10% more energy to be recovered than a standard MPPT and up to 30% more energy than a PWM. The device is equipped with Bluetooth functionality to drive, control and update the system from a smartphone. The device can also be connected directly to a Color Control GX, PC or other Victron monitoring devices. Load Control & Battery Protection The intelligent Load output function prevents damage caused by running batteries ‘flat’. You can configure the voltage at which SmartSolar disconnects a load – thereby preventing excessive drain on your batteries. And here’s the clever bit: SmartSolar will attempt a 100% recharge every day. If it can’t – during periods of poor weather – it raises the disconnect voltage, daily, until it achieves success. We call this feature BatteryLife because it maintains the health, and extends the life of your battery. The charger is equipped with a temperature sensor to compensate the charging voltage according to its temperature. MPPT Means Faster Charging Consider a 200W solar panel operating at 20V. The charging current associated with this will be 10A. A typical low-cost PWM charge controller will adjust the charging voltage according to the battery state-of-charge, and will let through some percentage of the 10A. In contrast, an MPPT controller will maximize the incoming power from the solar to maximize the charging amps. So this same solar panel will provide 14A to the batteries when charging at 14V.
