  • Page 3: General Description

    1. General Description 1.1 Charge current up to 35A and PV voltage up to 150V The BlueSolar MPPT 150/35 charge controller is able to charge a lower nominal-voltage battery from a higher nominal voltage PV array. The controller will automatically adjust to a 12V, 24V or a 48V nominal battery voltage.
  • Page 4 1.8 Flexible charge algorithm Fully programmable charge algorithm, and eight preprogrammed algorithms, selectable with a rotary switch. 1.9 Adaptive three step charging The BlueSolar MPPT Charge Controller is configured for a three step charging process: Bulk – Absorption – Float. 1.9.1.
  • Page 5 1.11 Configuring and monitoring - Bluetooth Smart (VE.Direct Bluetooth Smart dongle needed): the wireless solution to set-up, monitor and update the controller using Apple and Android smartphones, tablets or other devices. - Use the VE.Direct to USB cable (ASS030530000) to connect to a PC, a smartphone with Android and USB On-The-Go support (requires additional USB OTG cable).

    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. 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.
  • Page 8 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...

  • Page 11 The charge controller starts a new charge cycle every morning, when the sun starts shining. Default setting: The maximum duration of the absorption period is determined by the battery voltage measured just before the solar charger starts up in the morning: Battery voltage Vb (@start- Maximum absorption time Vb <...
  • Page 12 3.8 Automatic equalization Automatic equalization is default set to ‘OFF’. With the Victron Connect app (see sect 3.9) 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 (see table in section 3.5).
