Victron Energy SmartSolar 250/60 MPPT Charge Controller with Bluetooth

Victron Energy has been building power systems for over 45 years, and has a worldwide reputation for innovation, reliability, and quality. They serve the marine, vehicle, and off-grid markets, and are based in the Netherlands. We're hard-pressed to find anyone that matches Victron for quality.

The SmartSolar 250/60-Tr is appropriate for controlling up to 860W of solar panels at 12V, 1720W at 24V, 2580W at 36V, or an impressive 3440W at 48V nominal battery voltage, with a hard limit maximum PV open circuit voltage of 250VDC; we strongly recommend a maximum design array VOC of 235VDC to ensure that the input voltage limit is never exceeded. The unit will automatically select between 12V, 24V, or 48V on the output so long as the installation is performed as directed; 36V charging must be manually configured through the VictronConnect app.

This unit is also equipped with a display port to which the optional SmartSolar Pluggable Display may be connected, allowing you to view the state of the controller at a glance!

Besides great build quality and a 5-year warranty, the SmartSolar MPPT 250/60 has a number of unique features:

The SmartSolar 250/60 solar charge controller can be connected right out of the box and a rotary switch lets you choose between 8 preset battery profiles. For more extensive configuration and monitoring, connect to the unit using the free VictronConnect app on your smartphone or tablet. Being able to access 30 days of history including daily yield and the amount of time spent in each charge stage, as well as dial in your desired charge profile to the 1/100th of a volt, can be invaluable for managing your energy collection and use.

The controller can also connect to:

•  The Victron Energy Cerbo GX, with or without the GX Touch 50 or GX Touch 70 Accessory Screen, which can also connect to Victron battery chargers, inverters, and battery monitors.

•  The MPPT Control remote, a dedicated monitor/control for all current Victron MPPT controllers with a VE.Direct port.

•  The VE.Direct to USB Adapter, which can connect Victron MPPT controllers with VE.Direct ports to a Windows or Mac PC using the VictronConnect desktop app for your device.

Outstanding maximum efficiency exceeds 98%, with no cooling fan needed. Full output current up to 40°C (104°F). Internal temperature sensor compensates absorption and float charge voltages for temperature. Electronic components are resin encapsulated to protect against the elements.
