70A SOLAR CHARGE CONTROLLER BY VICTRON ENERGY

TR VE CAN MPPT CONTROLLER

An 70A solar charge controller that gathers energy from your solar panels, and stores it in your batteries. Using the latest, fastest technology, SmartSolar maximizes this energy harvest, driving it intelligently to achieve full charge in the shortest possible time. SmartSolar maintains battery health, extending its life.

The SmartSolar charge controller will even recharge a severely depleted battery. It can operate with a battery voltage as low as 0 Volts, provided the cells are not permanently sulfated or otherwise damaged. This 70A charge controller works well with all types of Canbat batteries including Lithium Iron Phosphate, Sealed Lead Acid and Lead Carbon.

KEY FEATURES & BENEFITS

Bluetooth Smart built-in

The wireless solution to set-up, monitor, update and synchronise SmartSolar Charge Controllers

Advanced Maximum Power Point Detection in case of partial shading conditions

If partial shading occurs, two or more maximum power points (MPP) may be present on the power voltage curve. Conventional MPPTs tend to lock to a local MPP, which may not be the optimum MPP. The innovative SmartSolar algorithm will always maximize energy harvest by locking to the optimum MPP.

Flexible charge algorithm

Fully programmable charge algorithm, and eight pre-programmed algorithms, selectable with a rotary switch (see manual for details).

Extensive electronic protection

Over-temperature protection and power derating when the temperature is high. PV short circuit and PV reverse polarity protection. PV reverse current protection.

Outstanding conversion efficiency

No cooling fan. Maximum efficiency exceeds 98%.

VE.Direct

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

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 (48V model: interface with a relay). Alternatively, an intelligent battery management algorithm can be chosen: see Battery Life. The load output is short circuit proof.

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.

Programmable battery charge algorithm

Day/night timing and light dimming option

Internal temperature sensor

Compensates absorption and float charge voltage for temperature.

VE.Can: the multiple controller solution

Up to 25 units can be synchronized with VE.Can

VE.Direct or VE.Can

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

Remote on-off

To connect for example to a VE.BUS BMS.

Programmable relay

Can be programmed to trip on an alarm, or other events.

Optional external battery voltage and temperature sensing via Bluetooth

A Smart Battery Sense or a BMV-712 Smart Battery Monitor can be used to communicate battery voltage and temperature to one or more SmartSolar Charge Controllers.

Fully discharged battery recovery function

Will initiate charging even if the battery has been discharged to zero volts. Will reconnect to a fully discharged Li-ion battery with an integrated disconnect function.

Optional: SmartSolar pluggable LCD display

Simply remove the rubber seal that protects the plug on the front of the controller, and plug-in the display

Price Match Policy

Eligibility Criteria:

  1. Minimum Price Threshold: Our commitment to providing you with the best value extends to items priced at $150 or more. We proudly offer a price match guarantee on these items, ensuring that if you discover the same product at a lower cost from one of our competitors, we will match that price.
  2. Identical Items: To qualify for a price match, the item must be an exact match in terms of brand, model, size, color, and quantity to the competitor’s offering. We strive to guarantee consistency and fairness in our price matching policy.
  3. Verification of Competitor’s Price: To initiate a price match, please provide evidence of the competitor’s lower price. This can be achieved through their current advertisement, online listing, or a written offer/quote. It is imperative that the documentation clearly displays the competitor’s information for transparency. Acceptable submissions include official quotes and URLs linking directly to the identical product on the competitor’s website. Note: Correspondence via email with a sales representative is not considered sufficient evidence for a price match.
  4. Competitor Eligibility: We extend our price match offer to recognized retail businesses within the same country, ensuring a fair and equitable comparison. This includes both brick-and-mortar stores and online-only retailers, provided they meet the criteria outlined in this policy.
  5. In-Stock Items Only: For a successful price match, the item must be in stock at both our store and the competitor’s establishment at the time of the price match request. This ensures that you receive the best value promptly without unnecessary delays.

Exclusions:

  • Clearance, closeout, liquidation sales, or damaged items are not eligible for the price match.
  • The policy does not apply to services or bundled items.
  • Cannot be combined with other promotions or discounts.
  • We do not price match Amazon listings or prices. 

While we strive to offer competitive pricing, we acknowledge that we cannot always match the exceptionally low prices found on Amazon due to their vast marketplace and unique pricing strategies. We are committed to providing value through our Price Match Policy within the parameters outlined above, ensuring fairness and transparency in our pricing practices.

At Circuit Solar, we are dedicated to ensuring your satisfaction by consistently offering competitive pricing. Our updated Price Matching Policy is designed to streamline the process, providing clear guidelines to make your experience seamless and transparent. If you have any questions or require assistance with a price match request, our customer service team is readily available to assist you.

To request a price match, please present the competitor’s current pricing via email including links to where our team can view the competitors products. Our team will verify the price and the eligibility of the item and process the price match accordingly.
