Victron SmartSolar MPPT 250/100-Tr VE.Can

Victron Energy SmartSolar MPPT 250/100-Tr VE.Can – 100 A solar charge controller is a high-performance solar charge controller with ultra-fast Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) technology. It converts energy from a photovoltaic array efficiently and uses an intelligent charging process to charge and protect the battery bank.

The controller accepts PV input up to 250 V and supports 12, 24, 36 and 48 V battery systems. With up to 99% maximum efficiency, adaptive multi-stage charging and extensive communication options, it is designed for demanding off-grid, mobile and stationary solar installations.
