Victron Energy BlueSolar MPPT 150/35 Charge Controller

Ultra-fast Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT)

Especially with changing cloud cover, when light intensity is constantly changing, an ultra-fast MPPT controller will improve energy yield by up to 30% compared to PWM charge controllers, and by up to 10% compared to slower MPPT controllers.

Advanced Maximum Power Point Detection in case of partial shading

In case of partial shading, there may be two or more current maxima on the voltage-power curve. A conventional MPPT will tend to select the local MPP, which may not be the optimum MPP. The innovative BlueSolar algorithm will always maximize energy yield by selecting the optimum MPP.

Exceptional conversion efficiency

Fanless. Maximum efficiency exceeds 98%. Full output current up to 40°C (104°F).

Flexible charging algorithm

Fully programmable charge algorithm (see Assistance & Downloads > Software on our website), and eight pre-programmed algorithms, selectable via a rotary switch (see manual for more information).

Extensive electronic protection

• Over-temperature protection and power derating in case of high temperature. • PV-array short circuit and reverse polarity protection. • PV-reverse current protection.

Internal temperature sensor

Compensates absorption and float charge voltage depending on temperature.

Real-time data display options

• With a Color Control GX or other GX devices: consult the Venus devices on our website. • With a smartphone or other Bluetooth device: the VE.Direct Bluetooth Smart dongle is required.

Maximum Power Point Tracking Diagram

The diagram shows the output current of a solar panel as a function of output voltage (V). The Maximum Power Point (MPP) is the point on the curve where the product of I x V reaches its peak.

Superior Curve: Output current (I) of a solar panel as a function of output voltage (V). The Maximum Power Point (MPP) is the point on the curve where the product of I x V reaches its peak.

Inferior Curve: Output power (P) = I x V as a function of output voltage (V). If a PWM (not MPPT) controller is used, the solar panel output voltage will be almost equal to the battery voltage, and lower than Vmp.

BlueSolar MPPT 150/35 Specifications

Notes:

1a) If more PV power is connected, the controller will limit the input power.

1b) The PV voltage must exceed the battery voltage by 5V for the controller to start. Once started, the minimum PV voltage will be Vbat + 1V.

2) A PV generator with a higher short circuit current may damage the controller.
