Victron SmartSolar MPPT RS 450/100-Tr High Voltage Solar Charge Controller Features

Ultra-fast Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) Solar Charge Controller

The MPPT RS SmartSolar is a 48V Solar charge controller with up to 450VDC PV input and either 100A, or 200A output. It is used in on-grid and off-grid solar applications where maximum battery charging power is required.

Multiple independent MPPT tracking inputs

With multiple MPPT trackers, you can optimize your solar panel design for maximum performance for your specific location.

Isolated PV connections for additional safety

Full galvanic isolation between PV and battery connections provide additional overall system safety.

Wide MPPT voltage range

80 – 450 VDC PV operating range, with a 120VDC PV startup voltage.

Light weight, efficient and quiet

Thanks to high frequency technology and a new design this powerful charger weighs only 7.9 kg for the 100A model. In addition to this it has an excellent efficiency, low standby power, and a very quiet operation.

Display and Bluetooth

The display reads battery, and controller parameters. The parameters can be accessed with a smartphone or other Bluetooth enabled
device. In addition, Bluetooth can be used to set up the system and to change settings with VictronConnect.

PV Isolation resistance monitoring for peace of mind at higher voltages

The MPPT RS continuously monitors the PV array and can detect if there are faults that reduce the isolation of the panels to unsafe levels.

VE.Can and VE.Direct port

For connection to a GX device for system monitoring, data logging, and remote firmware updates. VE.Can allows for up to 25 units to be connected together in parallel and synchronize their charging.

I/O Connections

Programmable Relay, temperature sensor, auxiliary, digital input and voltage sensor connections. The remote input can accept the Victron smallBMS, and other BMS with allow-to-charge signal.

  1. MPPT Operating Voltage Range Constraints:

    • Battery voltage limits PV VOC.
    • PV VOC should not exceed 8 times the battery float voltage.
    • Example: A 52.8 V float voltage results in a maximum PV VOC of 422.4 V.
    • Refer to the product manual for more details.
  2. PV Array and Short Circuit Current:

    • A high short circuit current may damage the controller if PV array is connected in reverse polarity.
  3. Maximum PV Array Calculation:

    • Max. 450 VOC leads to approximately 360 Vmpp.
    • Therefore, the maximum PV array is around 360 V x 20 A = 7200 Wp.
  4. PV Isolation and MPPT RS Functionality:

    • MPPT RS tests for sufficient resistive isolation between PV+ and GND, and PV- and GND.
    • If resistance is below the threshold, the unit stops charging, displays an error, and sends an error signal to the GX device (if connected) for audible and email notification.
  5. Programmable Relay:

    • Can be set for general alarm, DC under voltage, or genset start/stop function.
    • DC rating: 4 A up to 35 VDC and 1 A up to 70 VDC.
  6. Compatibility with VE.Smart Networks:

    • The MPPT RS is currently not compatible with VE.Smart Networks.
  7. Charger Set-Point and Output Voltage:

    • Float and absorption set-point can be set to a maximum of 60 V.
    • Output voltage at the charger terminals can be higher due to temperature compensation and voltage drop over the battery cables.
    • Maximum output current reduces linearly from full current at 60 V to 5A at 62 V.
    • Equalization voltage can be set to a maximum of 62V.
    • Equalization current percentage can be set to a maximum of 6%.

About Victron Energy Markets

Automotive

The automotive market comprises a broad range of applications requiring a reliable power supply. In vehicles such as fire engines, ambulances and police cars a human life may depend on an autonomous system. So it is vital that all systems function flawlessly. Victron Energy offers you such an answer. We are proud to offer you our modern translation for freedom and independence. Energy. Anytime. Anywhere.

Off-Grid and Backup

The presence of a functional electricity grid is not always as obvious as it would seem to be. An insufficient infrastructure is often the cause for an unreliable grid. Things become even more difficult when there is no grid at all. And yet you are in need of a reliable electricity supply. A local and properly functioning system is the only answer at this point. Victron Energy offers you such an answer. We are proud to offer you our modern translation for freedom and independence. Energy, Anytime, Anywhere

Marine

Whether you’re going on a short fishing trip or planning to sail across the ocean, you’ll need reliable power to enjoy your adventure to the fullest. But at Victron we believe reliability isn’t enough. We believe in Optimal Energy instead. In our view, a boat needs an intelligent power grid that adapts to any challenges you may encounter. With unparalleled reliability, without effort and at great value for money. That’s what we call Optimal Energy.

Energy Storage

As more solar and wind power comes on line, it becomes increasingly difficult and expensive, to ensure stability of the grid. Intermediate energy storage is therefore rapidly becoming an essential tool to keep power fluctuations on the grid within manageable limits. Moreover, as feed-in tariffs are decreasing, the business case for a home energy storage system that increases self-consumption becomes more solid every day. Intermediate energy storage increases self-consumption of harvested solar and/or wind power. The natural next step is 100% self-consumption and independence from the grid.
