BlueSolar charge controller MPPT 75/15 & MPPT 100/15 www.victronenergy.com Ultra fast Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) Especially in case of a clouded sky, 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. Load output Over-discharge of the battery can be prevented by connecting all loads to the load output. The load output will disconnect the load when the battery has been discharged to a preset voltage. Alternatively, an intelligent battery management algorithm can be chosen: see BatteryLife. The load output is short circuit proof. Some loads (especially inverters) can best be connected directly to the battery, and the inverter remote control connected to the load output. A special interface cable may be needed, please see the manual. BatteryLife: intelligent battery management When a solar charge controller is not able to recharge the battery to its full capacity within one day, the result is often that the battery will be continually be cycled between a “partially charged” state and the “end of discharge” state. This mode of operation (no regular full recharge) will destroy a leadacid battery within weeks or months. The BatteryLife algorithm will monitor the state of charge of the battery and, if needed, day by day slightly increase the load disconnect level (i. e. disconnect the load earlier) until the harvested solar energy is sufficient to recharge the battery to nearly the full 100%. From that point onwards the load disconnect level will be modulated so that a nearly 100% recharge is achieved about once every week. Solar charge controller MPPT 75/15 Resin encapsulated electronics Protects the electronic components against the environment. Automatic battery voltage recognition The MPPT 75/15 will automatically adjust to a 12V or a 24V system.

The maximum power point (MPP) is the point Pmax along the curve where the product I x V reaches its peak. Low voltage load reconnect Protection Operating temperature Humidity Data communication port Lower curve: Output power P = I x V as function of output voltage. When using a PWM (not MPPT) controller the output voltage of the solar panel will be nearly equal to the voltage of the battery, and will be lower than Vmp. -16 mV / °C resp. -32 mV / °C 15A / 50A 11,1 V / 22,2 V or 11,8 V / 23,6 V or BatteryLife algorithm 13,1 V / 26,2 V or 14 V / 28 V or BatteryLife algorithm Battery reverse polarity (fuse) Output short circuit Over temperature -30 to +60°C (full rated output up to 40°C) 100 %, non-condensing VE.Direct See the data communication white paper on our website ENCLOSURE Power terminals Protection category Weight IP65 (electronic components), IP22 (connection area) 0,5 kg Dimensions (h x w x d) 100 x 113 x 40 mm 1a) If more PV power is connected, the controller will limit input power to 200W resp. 400W 1b) PV voltage must exceed Vbat + 5V for the controller to start.
