SmartSolar MPPT 150/60-TRThe Victron SmartSolar MPPT 150/60 Solar Charge Controller is Bluetooth accessible via either built-in Bluetooth or the Victron Energy Bluetooth dongle. The VictronConnect app is available for free on both iOS and Android. This app allows you to view plenty of parameters: battery voltage, solar history, load output, flexible battery charge algorithms, plus day/night timing and light dimming options. These solar charge controllers will gather energy from your solar panels fast and efficiently. Ultra-fast Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) Especially in the 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 pre-set voltage. Alternatively, an intelligent battery management algorithm can be chosen: see Battery Life. The load output is short circuit proof. Some loads (especially inverters) can best be connected directly to the battery, and the inverter remote control is connected to the load output. A special interface cable may be needed, please see the manual Battery Life: 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 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 lead-acid battery within weeks or months. MPPT: Ultra Fast Maximum Power Point TrackingBy constantly monitoring the voltage and current output of your solar (PV) panels, MPPT technology ensures that every drop of available power is rinsed out of your panels, and harvested for storage. The advantage of this is most noticeable when the sky is partially clouded, and light intensity is constantly changing.Please contact your dealer for any returns, repairs or support issues related to this product.

Intelligent Load Relay CYRIX-LI-LOAD 12/24V-120AThe Cyrix Battery Combiner is a microprocessor-controlled heavy duty relay that automatically connects batteries in parallel when one of them has reached a pre-set voltage (indicating that the battery is being charged), and disconnects when the voltage decreases below float level (indicating that one or more batteries are being discharged). Cyrix Battery Combiners are an excellent replacement for diode isolators. The main feature is that there is virtually no voltage loss so that the output voltage of alternators or battery chargers does not need to be increased.

VE.Bus BMS for Victron LiFePO4 Batteries 12-48VDC Works with All VE.BusThe VE.Bus BMS protects each individual cell of a Victron lithium-iron-phosphate (LiFePO4 or LFP) battery.Each individual cell of a LiFePO4 battery must be protected against over-voltage, under-voltage, and over-temperature. Victron LiFePO4 batteries have integrated Balancing, Temperature, and Voltage control (acronym: BTV) and connect to the VE.Bus BMS with two M8 circular connector cord sets. The BTVs of several batteries can be daisy-chained. Please see our LiFePO4 battery documentation for details.The BMS will: Shut down or disconnect loads in case of the imminent cell under voltage. Reduce charge current in case of imminent cell overvoltage or over temperature (VE.Bus products only, see below). Shut down or disconnect battery chargers in case of imminent cell overvoltage or over-temperature. Please contact your dealer for any returns, repairs or support issues related to this product.

Orion-TR Smart 12/24-15A (360W) Isolated DC-DC Charger or Power SupplyThe Orion-Tr Smart isolated DC-DC charger serves as a DC-DC battery charger or a power supply (also designed for use as a constant voltage source), offering a wide input and output voltage range. This is especially significant in the case of vehicles with a Euro 5 or Euro 6 smart alternator, which often supplies too low charging voltage even when the engine is running or when extended cable lengths, as is often the case in boats and RVs, lead to voltage drops. In such scenarios, precise and controlled charging is imperative to fully charge the service battery while protecting the starter/input battery from discharge.Bluetooth Smart Enabled Any Bluetooth-enabled smartphone, tablet, or other device can be used to monitor, change settings, and update the charger when new software features become available Instant Readout: The VictronConnect App can display key data, including warnings and alarms, on the device list page without the need to connect to the product Fully programmable Battery charge algorithm (configurable) or fixed output.  Smart Alternator Compatibility: engine running detection mechanism Adaptive 3-Stage Charge Algorithm: Bulk – Absorption – Float For lead-acid batteries, it is important that during shallow discharges the absorption time is kept short to prevent overcharging of the battery. After a deep discharge, the absorption time is automatically increased to make sure that the battery is completely recharged For lithium batteries, the absorption time is fixed; the default is 2 hours Alternatively, a fixed output voltage can be chosen Suitable for Use in Vehicles with a Smart Alternator (Euro 5 and Euro 6 Engines)The built-in engine shutdown detection will stop the converter when the engine is not running. This prevents unwanted discharge of the starter battery (see manual for details).Remote On/OffA remote on/off switch or relay contact can be connected to a two-pole connector. Alternatively, the H terminal (right) of the two-pole connector can be switched to battery plus, or the L terminal (left) of the two-pole connector can be switched to battery minus (or the chassis of a vehicle, for example).All Models Are Short Circuit Proof and Can Be Paralleled to Increase Output CurrentAn unlimited number of units can be connected in parallel.High Temperature ProtectedThe output current will reduce at high ambient temperatures.IP43 ProtectionWhen installed with the screw terminals oriented downward.Screw TerminalsNo special tools are needed for installation.
