A solar charger gathers energy from your solar panels, and stores it in your batteries. Using the latest, fastest technology, Smartsolar MPPT 250/100tr Regulator maximises this energy-harvest, driving it intelligently to achieve full charge in the shortest possible time. The Victron Smartsolar MPPT 250/100tr Regulator maintains battery health, extending its life.

Features
-
Bluetooth Smart Built-In: The wireless solution to set-up, monitor, update and synchronise SmartSolar Charge Controllers.
-
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.
-
Advanced Maximum Power Point Detection in Case of Partial Shading Conditions: If partial shading occurs, two or more maximum power points (MPP) may be present on the power-voltage curve. Conventional MPPTs tend to lock to a local MPP, which may not be the optimum MPP. The innovative SmartSolar algorithm will always maximize energy harvest by locking to the optimum MPP.
-
Outstanding Conversion Efficiency: No cooling fan. Maximum efficiency exceeds 99%.
-
Flexible Charge Algorithm: Fully programmable charge algorithm, and eight preprogrammed algorithms, selectable with a rotary switch.
-
Extensive Electronic Protection: Over-temperature protection and power derating when temperature is high. PV short circuit and PV reverse polarity protection. PV reverse current protection.
-
Internal Temperature Sensor: Compensates absorption and float charge voltage for temperature.
-
Optional External Battery Voltage and Temperature Sensing via Bluetooth: A Smart Battery Sense or a BMV-712 Smart Battery Monitor can be used to communicate battery voltage and temperature to one or more SmartSolar Charge Controllers.
-
VE.Direct: For a wired data connection to a Color Control GX, other GX products, PC or other devices
-
Remote On-Off: To connect for example to a VE.BUS BMS.
-
Programmable Relay: Can be programmed (a.o. with a smartphone) to trip on an alarm, or other events.
-
Optional - SmartSolar Pluggable LCD Display: Simply remove the rubber seal that protects the plug on the front of the controller, and plug-in the display.
