1 General Description

1.1 Bluetooth Smart built-in: dongle not needed

The wireless solution to set-up, monitor and update the controller using Apple and

Android smartphones, tablets or other devices.

1.2 VE.Direct

For a wired data connection to a Color Control panel, PC or other devices

1.3 Ultra fast MPPT tracking

Especially in case of a clouded sky, when light intensity is changing continuously, a fast

MPPT algorithm will improve energy harvest by up to 30% compared to PWM charge

controllers and by up to 10% compared to slower MPPT controllers.

1.4 Load output

Deep 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 with high inrush current can best be connected directly to the battery. If

equipped with a remote on-off input, these loads can be controlled by connecting the load

output of the controller this remote on-off input. A special interface cable may be needed,

please see section 3.7.

Alternatively, a BatteryProtect may be used to control the load. Please see our website

for specifications.

1.5 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.

The Battery Life algorithm will monitor the state of charge of the battery and, if needed, day

by day slightly increase the load disconnect level (i.e. disconnect the load earlier) until the

harvested solar energy is sufficient to recharge the battery to nearly the full 100%. From that

point onwards the load disconnect level will be modulated so that a nearly 100% recharge is

achieved about once every week.

1.6 Internal temperature sensor

Compensates absorption and float charge voltages for temperature. (range 6°C to 40°C)

1.7 Optional external voltage and temperature sensor

(range -20°C to 50°C)

The Smart Battery Sense is a wireless battery voltage-and-temperature sensor for Victron

MPPT Solar Chargers. The Solar Charger uses these measurements to optimize its charge

parameters. The accuracy of the data it transmits will improve battery charging efficiency,

and prolong battery life.

Alternatively, Bluetooth communication can be set up between a BMV-712 battery monitor

with battery temperature sensor and the solar charge controller

1.8 Automatic battery voltage recognition

The controller will automatically adjust itself to a 12V or a 24V system one time only.

If a different system voltage is required at a later stage, it must be changed manually, for

example with the Bluetooth app see section 1.9.

1.9 Adaptive three step charging

The controller is configured for a three step charging process: Bulk – Absorption - Float.

See section 3.8 and section 5 for default settings.

See section 1.9 for user defined stings

1.9.1. Bulk

During this stage the controller delivers as much charge current as possible to rapidly

recharge the batteries.

1.9.2. Absorption

When the battery voltage reaches the absorption voltage, the controller switches to constant

voltage mode.

When only shallow discharges occur, the absorption time is kept short in order 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.

Additionally, the absorption period is also ended when the charge current decreases to less

than 1A.

1.9.3. Float

During this stage, float voltage is applied to the battery to maintain a fully charged state.

When the battery voltage drops below float voltage during at least 1 minute a new charge

cycle will be triggered.

1.9.4. Equalization

See section 3.8.1

1.10 Configuring and monitoring

Configure the solar charge controller with the VictronConnect app. Available for iOS &

Android devices; as well as macOS and Windows computers. An accessory might be

required; enter victronconnect in the search box on our website and see the VictronConnect

download page for details.

For simple monitoring, use the MPPT Control; a panel mounted simple yet effective display

that shows all operational parameters. Full system monitoring including logging to our online

portal, VRM, is done using the GX Product range

3. Installation

WARNING: DC (PV) INPUT NOT ISOLATED FROM BATTERY

CIRCUIT.

CAUTION: FOR PROPER TEMPERATURE COMPENSATION

THE AMBIENT CONDITION FOR CHARGER AND BATTERY MUST

BE WITHIN 5°C, or the optional Smart Battery Sense dongle must

be used.

3.1. General

● Mount vertically on a non-flammable substrate, with the power terminals facing

downwards. Observe a minimum clearance of 10 cm under and above the product for

optimal cooling.

● Mount close to the battery, but never directly above the battery (in order to prevent

damage due to gassing of the battery).

● Improper internal temperature compensation (e.g. ambient condition battery and

charger not within 5°C) can lead to reduced battery lifetime.

We recommend using a direct battery voltage sense source (BMV, Smart Battery

Sense or GX device shared voltage sense) if larger temperature differences or

extreme ambient temperature conditions are expected

● Battery installation must be done in accordance with the storage battery rules of the

Canadian Electrical Code, Part I.

● The battery and PV connections must guarded against inadvertent contact (e.g. install

in an enclosure or install the optional WireBox).

3.2 Grounding

● Battery grounding: the charger can be installed in a positive or negative grounded

system.

Note: apply a single ground connection (preferably close to the battery) to prevent

malfunctioning of the system.

● Chassis grounding: A separate earth path for the chassis ground is permitted because it is

isolated from the positive and negative terminal.

● The USA National Electrical Code (NEC) requires the use of an external ground fault

protection device (GFPD). These MPPT chargers do not have internal ground fault

protection. The system electrical negative should be bonded through a GFPD to earth

ground at one (and only one) location.

● The charger must not be connected with grounded PV arrays (one ground connection

only)

● The plus and minus of the PV array should not be grounded. Ground the frame of the PV

panels to reduce the impact of lightning.

WARNING: WHEN A GROUND FAULT IS INDICATED, BATTERY TERMINALS AND

CONNECTED CIRCUITS MAY BE UNGROUNDED AND HAZARDOUS.

3.3. PV configuration (also see the MPPT Excel sheet on our website)

● Provide a means to disconnect all current-carrying conductors of a photovoltaic power

source from all other conductors in a building or other structure.

● A switch, circuit breaker, or other device, either ac or dc, shall not be installed in a

grounded conductor if operation of that switch, circuit breaker, or other device leaves the

grounded conductor in an ungrounded state while the system remains energyzed.

6

● The controller will operate only if the PV voltage exceeds battery voltage (Vbat).

● PV voltage must exceed Vbat + 5V for the controller to start. Thereafter minimum PV

voltage is Vbat + 1V.

● Maximum open circuit PV voltage: 75V respectively 100V

For example:

12V battery and mono- or polycristalline panels connected to a 75V controller

● Minimum number of cells in series: 36 (12V panel).

● Recommended number of cells for highest controller efficiency: 72

(2x 12V panel in series or 1x 24V panel).

● Maximum: 108 cells (3x 12V panel in series).

24V battery and mono- or polycristalline panels connected to a 100V controller

● Minimum number of cells in series: 72

(2x 12V panel in series or 1x 24V panel).

● Maximum: 144 cells (4x 12V panel in series).

Remark: at low temperature the open circuit voltage of a 108 cell array may exceed 75V

and and the open circuit voltage of a 144 cell solar array may exceed 100V, depending on

local conditions and cell specifications. In that case the number of cells in series must be

reduced.

3.4 Cable connection sequence (see figure 4 at the end of this manual)

First: connect the cables to the load, but ensure that all loads are switched off.

Second: connect the battery (this will allow the controller to recognize system voltage).

Third: connect the solar array (when connected with reverse polarity, the controller will heat

up but will not charge the the battery).

Torque: 1 Nm

The system is now ready for use.

3.5. Configuration of the controller (see figure 1 and 2 at the end of this manual)

If a Bluetooth device or other means of communication is not available, the VE.Direct

communication port (see section 1.10) can be used to configure the load output as follows:

3.6 The load output

The load out output can be configured with Bluetooth or via VE.Direct.

Alternatively, a jumper can be used to to configure the load output as follows:

3.6.1. No jumper: BatteryLife algorithm (see 1.5.)

3.6.2. Jumper between pin 1 and pin 2: conventional

Low voltage load disconnect: 11,1V or 22,2V

Automatic load reconnect: 13,1V or 26,2V

3.6.3. Jumper between pin 2 and pin 3: conventional

Low voltage load disconnect: 11,8V or 23,6V

Automatic load reconnect: 14V or 28V

Note: remove the jumper when using Bluetooth to configure the controller

7

EN NL FR DE ES SE Appendix

Some loads with high inrush current can best be connected directly to the battery. If

equipped with a remote on-off input, these loads can be controlled by connecting the load

output of the controller to this remote on-off input. A special interface cable may be

needed.

Alternatively, a BatteryProtect may be used to control the load. Please see our website

for specifications.

Low power inverters, such as the Phoenix VE.Direct inverters up to 375VA, can be

powered by the load output, but the maximum output power will be limited by the current

limit of the load output.

Phoenix VE.Direct inverters can be controlled by connecting the left side connection of

the remote control to the load output.

The bridge on the remote control between left and right must be removed.

The Victron inverters model Phoenix 12/800, 24/800, 12/1200 and 24/1200 can be

controlled by connecting the right side connection of the inverter remote control directly to

the load output (see figure 4 at the end of this manual).

For the Victron inverters model Phoenix 12/180, 24/180, 12/350, 24/350, the Phoenix

Inverter Compact models and the MultiPlus Compact models an interface cable is

needed: the Inverting remote on-off cable, article number ASS030550100, see figure 5 at

the end of this manual.

3.8 Battery charging information

The charge controller starts a new charge cycle every morning, when the sun starts shining.

User defined algorithm:

The default settings can be modified with Bluetooth or via VE.Direct.

Lead-acid batteries: default method to determine length and end of absorption

The charging algorithm behaviour of MPPTs differs from AC connected battery chargers.

Please read this section of the manual carefully to understand MPPT behaviour, and always

follow the recommendations of your battery manufacturer.

By default, the absorption time is determined on idle battery voltage at the start of each day

based on the following table:

Battery voltage Vb (@start-up) Multiplier Maximum absorption time

Vb < 11,9V x 1 6h

11,9V < Vb < 12,2V x 2/3 4h

12,2V < Vb < 12,6V x 1/3 2h

Vb > 12,6V x 1/6 1h

(12V values, adjust for 24V))

Default absorption voltage: 14,4V

Default float voltage: 13,8V

The absorption time counter starts once switched from bulk to absorption.

The MPPT Solar Chargers will also end absorption and switch to float when the battery

current drops below a low current threshold limit, the ‘tail current’.

The default tail current value value is 1A.

For models with a load output the current on the battery terminals is used; and for the larger

models; the current on the output terminals is used.

The default settings (voltages, absorption time multiplier and tail current) can be modified

with the Victronconnect app via or via VE.Direct.

There are two exceptions to normal operation:

1. When used in an ESS system; the solar charger algorithm is disabled; and instead it

follows the curve as mandated by the inverter/charger.

2. For CAN-bus Lithium batteries, like BYD, the battery tells the system, including the solar

charger, what charge voltage to use. This Charge Voltage Limit (CVL) is for some

batteries even dynamic; changes over time; based on for example maximum cell

voltage in the pack and other parameters.

9

EN NL FR DE ES SE Appendix

Variations to expected behaviour

1. Pausing of the absorption time counter

The absorption time counter starts when the configured absorption voltage is reached

and pauses when the output voltage is below the configured absorption voltage.

An example of when this voltage drop could occur is when PV power (due to clouds,

trees, bridges) is insufficient to charge the battery and to power the loads.

When the absorption timer is paused, the absorption LED will flash very slowly.

2. Restarting the charge process

The charging algorithm will reset if charging has stopped for an hour. This may occur

when the PV voltage drops below the battery voltage due to bad weather, shade or

similar.

3. Battery being charged or discharged before solar charging begins

The automatic absorption time is based on the start-up battery voltage (see table).

This absorption time estimation can be incorrect if there is an additional charge

source (eg alternator) or load on the batteries.

This is an inherent issue in the default algorithm. However, in most cases it is still

better than a fixed absorption time regardless of other charge sources or battery

state.

It is possible to override the default absorption time algorithm by setting a fixed

absorption time when programming the solar charge controller. Be aware this can

result in overcharging your batteries. Please see your battery manufacturer for

recommended settings.

4. Absorption time determined by tail current

In some applications it may be preferable to terminate absorption time based on tail

current only. This can be achieved by increasing the default absorption time

multiplier.

(warning: the tail current of lead-acid batteries does not decrease to zero when the

batteries are fully charged, and this “remaining” tail current can increase substantially

when the batteries age)

Default setting, LiFePO4 batteries

LiFePO4 batteries do not need to be fully charged to prevent premature failure.

The default absorption voltage setting is 14,2V (28,4V).

And the default absorption time setting is 2 hours.

Default float setting: 13,2V (26,4V).

These settings are adjustable.

Reset of the charge algorithm:

The default setting for restarting the charge cycle is Vbatt < (Vfloat – 0,4V) for lead-acid,

and Vbatt < (Vfloat – 0,1V) for LiFePO4 batteries, during 1 minute.

(values for 12V batteries, multiply by two for 24V)

3.9 Automatic equalization

Automatic equalization is default set to ‘OFF’. With the Victron Connect app (see sect 1.9)

this setting can be configured with a number between 1 (every day) and 250 (once every

250 days).

When automatic equalization is active, the absorption charge will be followed by a voltage

limited constant current period. The current is limited to 8% or 25% of the bulk current. The

bulk current is the rated charger current unless a lower maximum current setting has been

chosen.

10

When using a setting with 8% current limit, automatic equalization ends when the voltage

limit has been reached, or after 1 hour, whichever comes first.

Other settings: automatic equalization ends after 4 hours.

When automatic equalization is not completely finished within one day, it will not resume the

next day, the next equalization session will take place as determined by the day interval.

belastingsuitgang te verbinden. De belastingsuitgang koppelt de belasting los als de accu

is ontladen tot een vooringestelde spanning.

Er kan tevens een intelligent accumanagementalgoritme worden gekozen: zie Battery

Life.

De belastingsuitgang is bestand tegen kortsluiting.

Sommige belastingen met hoge inschakelstroom kunnen het beste direct op de accu

worden aangesloten. Indien voorzien van een ingang voor aan/uit op afstand, kunnen

deze belastingen het beste worden geregeld door de belastingsuitgang van de controller

te verbinden met deze ingang voor aan/uit op afstand. Hiervoor kan een speciale

interfacekabel zijn vereist, zie paragraaf 3.7.

Als alternatief kan ook een BatteryProtect worden gebruikt om de belasting te regelen. Zie

onze website voor de specificaties.

1.5 BatteryLife: intelligent accubeheer

Als een zonnelaadcontroller de accu niet in één dag weer volledig kan opladen, is het

resultaat vaak dat de accu voortdurend schommelt tussen "gedeeltelijk opgeladen" en

"volledig ontladen". Deze werkwijze (de accu niet regelmatig volledig weer opladen) maakt

een loodzuuraccu binnen enkele weken of maanden helemaal kapot.

Het BatteryLife-algoritme houdt de laadstatus van de accu in de gaten en verhoogt, indien

nodig, dag na dag het niveau voor belastingsontkoppeling (d.w.z. koppelt de belasting

eerder los) tot de energie die van een zonnepaneel verkregen is, voldoende is om de accu

opnieuw op te laden tot bijna de volledige 100%. Vanaf dat ogenblik wordt het niveau voor

belastingsontkoppeling gemoduleerd, zodat de accu ongeveer één keer per week tot bijna

de volledige 100% wordt geladen.

1.6 Interne temperatuursensor

Compenseert absorptie- en float-laadspanningen voor temperatuur (bereik 6°C tot 40°C).

1.7 Optionele externe spannings- en temperatuursensor (bereik -20°C tot 50°C).

De Smart Battery Sense is een draadloze batterij spannings- en temperatuursensor voor

Victron MPPT Zonneladers. De Zonnelader gebruikt deze afmetingen om diens

laadparameters te optimaliseren. De accuraatheid van de gegevens die het doorstuurt zal

de doeltreffendheid van het batterijladen verbeteren en de levensduur van de batterij

verlengen.

Als alternatief kan Bluetooth communicatie ingesteld worden tussen een BMV-712

batterijmonitor met batterijtemperatuursensor en de zonnelaadcontroller.

1.8 Automatische herkenning van de accuspanning

De controller past zich slechts een keer automatisch aan aan een 12V- of een 24V-

systeem.

Als op een later moment een andere systeemspanning is vereist, moet deze handmatig

worden gewijzigd, bijvoorbeeld met de Bluetooth-app , zie paragraaf 1.9.

1.9 Driestaps laden

De laadcontroller is geconfigureerd voor een driestaps laadproces: Bulk – Absorptie - Float.

Zie paragraaf 3.8 en paragraaf 5 voor de standaardinstellingen.

Zie paragraaf 1.9 voor de gebruikersgedefinieerd instellingen

1.9.1. Bulklading

Tijdens deze fase levert de controller zo veel mogelijk laadstroom om de accu's snel op te

laden.

1.9.2. Absorptielading

Als de accuspanning de ingestelde absorptiespanning bereikt, schakelt de controller over

op de constante spanningsmodus.

Als enkel lichte ontladingen optreden, wordt de absorptietijd kort gehouden om overlading

van de accu te voorkomen. Na een diepe ontlading wordt de absorptietijd automatisch

verlengd om de accu volledig op te laden.

Daarnaast wordt de absorptietijd ook beëindigd als de laadstroom onder 1 A daalt.

1.9.3. Druppellading

Tijdens deze fase wordt de druppelladingsspanning toegepast op de accu om deze volledig

opgeladen te houden.

Wanneer de accuspanning minimaal 1 minuut onder de druppelladingsspanning daalt,

wordt een nieuwe laadcyclus geactiveerd.

1.9.4. Egalisatie

Zie paragraaf 3.8.1

1.10 Configuratie en bewaking

Configureer de zonnelaadcontroller met de VictronConnect app. Beschikbaar voor iOS- &

Android-toestellen; evenals voor MacOS- en Windows-computers. Een accessoire kan

vereist zijn; voer victronconnect in in het zoekvakje op onze website en bekijk de

VictronConnect downloadpagina voor details.

Gebruik voor eenvoudig monitoring de MPPT Control; een eenvoudig maar efficiënt op

panel gemonteerd beeldscherm dat alle operationele parameters toont. Monitoring van het

volledige systeem inclusief inloggen op ons online portaal, VRM, wordt uitgevoerd via het

GX Productgamma.
