The unit also features self-diagnostic capabilities with LED indicators for system errors. Common Questions What is the maximum solar panel voltage this controller can handle? The Victron BlueSolar MPPT 150/60 can handle a maximum PV open circuit voltage of 150V. It is crucial to ensure your solar array's open circuit voltage (Voc) does not exceed this limit, especially in cold conditions where voltage can be higher. Can I monitor and configure this controller remotely? Yes, the controller features a VE.Direct communication port. By connecting an optional VE.Direct Bluetooth Smart dongle or VE.Direct USB cable (both sold separately), you can monitor and configure the unit using the VictronConnect App on your smartphone, tablet, or computer. An optional MPPT Control panel is also available. Is this controller suitable for lithium batteries? Yes, the Victron BlueSolar MPPT 150/60 is compatible with a wide range of battery types, including Lithium batteries. Its flexible and programmable charge algorithm allows you to set specific charging parameters suitable for lithium chemistry via the VictronConnect App. What is the "BatteryLife" feature? BatteryLife is an intelligent battery management feature that gradually increases the load disconnect voltage if the controller fails to achieve a full charge daily. This adaptive mechanism helps prevent repeated partial discharge cycles, which can significantly extend the overall lifespan of your battery bank. Installation Notes Ensure installation is carried out by a qualified professional in accordance with local electrical regulations. Mount the controller in a dry, well-ventilated area, close to the batteries but not directly above them. Allow at least 10 cm of clearance around the unit for proper cooling and airflow. Use appropriate cable gauges for PV and battery connections to minimise voltage drop and ensure safety. Always connect the battery first, then the solar panels. Disconnect in reverse order. Before You Buy Verify your total solar panel array voltage (Voc) does not exceed 150V under any conditions. Confirm your battery bank voltage (12V, 24V, 36V, or 48V) matches the controller's capabilities. Consider optional accessories like the VE.Direct Bluetooth Smart dongle or MPPT Control panel for enhanced monitoring and control. Review the detailed user manual for comprehensive wiring diagrams and operational guidelines. Ensure the chosen installation location meets the environmental requirements (IP rating, temperature). Always verify product specifications and compatibility with your specific solar system components before purchase and installation. This product is covered by a 5-year warranty.
