The Smartsolar MPPT 150/70-Tr VE.Can from Victron Energy (MPN SCC115070411) is part of the latest generation of smart charge controllers from the Dutch premium manufacturer. The controller processes a whopping 70A of solar power and can work flexibly with 12/24/36/48V batteries. Ultra-fast power tracking and automatic power point detection in the event of partial shading are just two of the many highlights of this new device class. VE.Can is particularly suitable for systems with multiple solar chargers; up to 25 controllers can be synchronized with it.
In comparison to the BlueSolar series, the Bluetooth module in the Smartsolar family is already integrated into the controller, which makes the Smart Dongle superfluous with this device. Also new is the optionally available LCD display, which can simply be plugged onto the SmartSolar 150/70-Tr VE.Can when required. The display then provides all the important information about the controller. If required, the MPPT WireBox-L Tr from Victron Energy is the ideal addition to your SmartSolar charge controller . It safely covers the cable inputs and the connection terminals of the controller, protecting them from external influences and contact.

Smart data communication via VE.Direct and lightning-fast Bluetooth module
Modern Apple and Android smartphones, tablets, Macbooks and other devices can be connected thanks to the integrated Bluetooth module and the free Victron Connect APP. The app can then be used to configure many important functions of the SmartSolar controller. Of course, it also provides all important parameters such as the current solar yield in real time.
Automatic detection of the maximum power point in case of partial shading
In case of partial shading, there may be two or more maximum power points ( MPP ) on the current-voltage curve. Conventional MPPTs tend to adjust to a local MPP , but this may not be the optimal MPP . The innovative algorithm of the SmartSolar device will always maximize energy yield by adjusting to the optimal MPP .
High-speed MPP tracker of the latest generation
Especially under overcast skies, when the light intensity is constantly changing, an extremely fast MPPT controller improves energy yield by up to 30% compared to PWM charge controllers and by up to 10% compared to slower MPPT controllers.
Comprehensive electronic protection
- Protection against reversed battery connection
- PV backflow preventer
- Protection against overheating of the device
- Protection against short circuits
- Protection against reversed PV connection
The VE.Direct data communication port
VE.Direct in text mode transmits all important parameters every second to other devices that are linked to the charge controller and thus offers the possibility of communication with additional devices Systempanel GX Color Control. The VE.Direct connection is intended for products where complete Canbus integration (VE-Direct) would be too expensive. You can find more information about VE.Direct in our Victron Energy brand shop.
