Victron Energy SmartSolar MPPT 450/100-MC4 VE.Can VE.Direct 450/100 [SCC145110510]

The SmartSolar MPPT RS solar charge controllers are Victron's solution for systems with large series connected PV arrays charging 48 V DC battery banks. This product is perfect for large off-grid, and grid-connected battery systems.

In a 5.76kW and 11.52kW model, features include a wide 65-450 VDC operating solar voltage input, independent tracking inputs, full connectivity, isolated PV connections, a display screen, fully programmable battery charging parameters, and active cooling. The new metal case design and fully covered electrical connections improve safety and modernize the presentation in line with the latest suite of Victron products.

MPPT: Ultra Fast Maximum Power Point Tracking

The SmartSolar RS solar charge controller connects to a PV array of between 65 and 450 Volt Voc and will efficiently charge your 48V battery bank with either 100A or 200A.The charge settings are fully programmable and can be set up for different battery chemistries, like lead-acid, lithium and more.

Setup & monitor with VictronConnect

The SmartSolar RS charge controller can be remotely controlled and configured over Bluetooth via the VictronConnect app. This allows device set-up, management, and at-a-glance information, such as battery voltage and current, PV voltage and current, historical data and trends.

Daisy Chain Additional Units

The SmartSolar RS charge controller is equipped with VE.Can bus ports. This allows for communication with additional SmartSolar RS & VE.Can MPPT units. The additional units are simply “daisy chained” to each other with an RJ45 cable.When connected to each other, all individual charge controllers, will synchronise their charge stages. They can also send their data, via the same cable, for monitoring to a GX device (such as the Cerbo GX).

Remote Monitoring and Control

If the GX device is connected to the internet, the Victron Remote Management Portal (VRM) provides access to the full power of your SmartSolar RS charge controllers.If your installation is connected to a GX device and the internet, Victron Remote Management Portal (VRM) provides access to the full power of your MPPT, anytime, anywhere; for free. For remote installations - even when there is no internet connection nearby - you may be able to monitor your MPPT by connecting the GlobalLink 520.

SmartSolar Display

The SmartSolar RS charge controller is equipped with a display on the front panel. The display reads battery volts, charge current and voltages from both array’s individually including instantaneous and total figures and unit status including any possible error codes.

I/O Connections

The SmartSolar RS charge controller is equipped with a programmable relay and options for remote temperature and voltage sensing. The remote input can accept the Victron smallBMS and other types of BMS with allow-to-charge signals.  

VictronConnect

VictronConnect lets you get live status information and configure any Victron products which either have Bluetooth built-in, or are connected to a VE.Direct Bluetooth Smart Dongle.

Once purchased and in use, this product is non-returnable.

Product Warranty

Victron Energy Product Warranty

Victron Energy warrants its products to be free from defects in workmanship and materials for a period of 5 years from the date of purchase by the end-user, with a maximum of 66 months from the Victron Energy invoice date. Exceptions on this are: lead-acid batteries; 2 years from date of purchase by the end-user, with a maximum of 30 months from the Victron Energy invoice date, Lithium batteries; 3 years from date of purchase by the end-user. In addition to this, proof of correct battery usage is required when making a battery warranty claim.

For a 10% surcharge on the net price for products that came with a 5-year warranty, an additional 5 years of warranty can be purchased, bringing the total warranty to 10 years. Warranty extensions need to be applied for ultimately one year before expiration of the original term.

During the warranty period, Victron Energy will, at its discretion, repair, replace or credit the defective product free of charge. The warranty does not include performing or reimbursing de‐installation, transportation, and re‐installation. This warranty will be considered void if the unit has suffered any physical damage or alteration, either internally or externally, and does not cover damages arising from improper use like:

• Reverse of battery polarity.

• Inadequate connection.

• Mechanical shock or deformation.

• Contact with liquid or oxidation by condensation.

• Use in an inappropriate environment(dust, corrosive vapor, humidity, high temperature, biological infestation...). 

• Breakage or damage due to lightning.

• Connection terminals and screws destroyed or other damages, like overheat, due to insufficient tightening.

• For any electronic breakage except due to lightning (reverse polarity, over‐voltage due to external cause), the state of the internal control diode and/or the input/output X and Y capacitors determine the warranty.

This warranty will not apply where the product has been misused, neglected, improperly installed, or repaired by anyone else than Victron Energy or one of its authorized Repair Centres. In order to qualify for the warranty, the product must not be disassembled or modified.

Repair, replacement or credit are our sole remedies and Victron Energy shall not be liable for damages, whether direct, incidental, special, or consequential, even caused by negligence or fault.

Victron Energy owns all parts removed from repaired products.
