Victron Energy BlueSolar MPPT 150/45

Comprehensive Overview of Victron Energy BlueSolar MPPT 150/45

A solar charger gathers energy from your solar panels, and stores it in your batteries. Using the latest, fastest technology, BlueSolar maximizes this energy-harvest, driving it intelligently to achieve full charge in the shortest possible time. BlueSolar maintains battery health, extending its life.

Features

• MPPT: Ultra fast maximum power point tracking by constantly monitoring the voltage and current output of your solar (PV) panels, MPPT technology ensures that every drop of available power is rinsed out of your panels and harvested for storage
• The advantage of this is most noticeable when the sky is partially clouded, and light intensity is constantly changing
• Remote monitoring and control - remotely control and monitor the extensive features of your BlueSolar MPPT charger by attaching a Bluetooth dongle and pairing it with your smartphone or other device via VictronConnect
• If your installation is connected to the internet with a GX device, the Victron Remote Management Portal (VRM) provides access to the full power of your MPPT anytime, anywhere; both VictronConnect and VRM are free to use
• For remote installations - even when there is no internet connection nearby - you may be able to monitor your MPPT by connecting the GlobalLink 520
