MPP solar controller for high quality motorhomes, caravans and boats. Votronic solar controllers of the series "MPP" (Maximum-Power-Point) with "IU1oU2" charging characteristic are connected as a link between solar panel(s) and battery(ies). With MPP technology, the controller continuously and automatically determines the maximum power point (MPP) of the solar panels several times per second. It then transforms the excess voltage of the solar module to a higher charging current for the battery (realized by high frequency switching controller technology with high efficiency). This charging current gain ensures shorter charging times and the best possible power utilization of the solar system. The MPP solar controllers are fully automatic, maintenance free and offer the following functions: MPP charge current increase compared to conventional controllers by 10% to 30% (efficiency > 95%) due to the use of the latest controller technology (microprocessor). The increase in performance is particularly noticeable during the cooler seasons and, for example, during periods of high snow, low and diffuse lighting (hibernation). For charging lead-gel, lead-AGM, lead-acid batteries or LiFePO4 complete batteries (with integrated BMS, balancing, safety circuit and approval!) of the specified nominal voltages and the co-supply of consumers connected to these batteries in permanently installed systems with the specified battery capacities and charging programs. The charging voltage is free of peaks and regulated in such a way that overcharging of the batteries is excluded. Two battery charging outputs: Automatic charging of the main supply on-board battery (BORD I) and back-up charging and charge maintenance (max. 1 A) of the vehicle starter battery (Start II) with protection against overcharging. Monitoring-free charging: Standard protection against overload, overheating, reverse polarity and battery back discharge (in case of insufficient solar power e.g. dusk, night etc.). Parallel/buffer operation: Compliance with charging regulations even with simultaneous operation of loads. Overcharge protection: regulates the charging current of the battery back in case of too much solar power and full battery, ensures the highest possible state of charge of the battery in case of power consumption by immediate recharging. "IU1oU2" charging characteristic: defined charging voltage increase (U1) prevents harmful acid stratification (lead) and provides equalization charging of individual battery cells (lead and lith.), then automatic trickle charging (U2). Charging cable compensation: Voltage losses on the charging cables are automatically compensated. On-board power supply filter: problem-free parallel operation with wind and motor generators, mains chargers, alternators, etc. Measurement output for EBL, possibly existing electric block in the living area of the vehicle: Allows the convenient use of a (solar) current display built into the electric block to check the solar system. Please make sure to check the compatibility of your Schaudt electric block (EBL) and the corresponding control and display panel in advance, as we cannot assume any warranty for this. Switching output "AES" (only MPP 250, MPP 350 and MPP 430): Causes automatic switching of refrigerators with "AES" (Automatic Energy Selector, Electrolux / Dometic) from gas to 12 V operation in the event of permanently abundant solar power surplus. Connection for battery temperature sensor (Art.-No. 2001): In case of lead batteries, the charging voltage is automatically adjusted to the battery temperature, causes a better full charge of the weaker battery in cold weather, in summer temperatures unnecessary battery gassing and load is avoided. LiFePO4 batteries: Battery protection at high and especially at low temperatures. Highly recommended when the battery temperature may drop below 0°C during operation.

The solar regulator is specially designed for use in motorhomes and caravans and is suitable for all lead-acid battery types and makes (acid, GEL/dryfit, AGM/fleece and LiFePO4 batteries). Through intelligent microprocessor control, the batteries are optimally charged with IU1oU2 characteristics. The solar controller works fully automatic and maintenance-free and offers the following functions: Charge output board battery I , depending on the battery type (lead or LiFePO4) optionally 3 or 5 charge programs. Charging output starter battery II: Separate secondary charging output with reduced charging current (12 V / 0.8 A or 1.5 A) for support charging and charge maintenance of the vehicle starter battery with protection against overcharging during long idle periods. The charging voltage is free of peaks and regulated to prevent overcharging of the batteries. Two battery charging outputs: automatic charging of the main or on-board battery (on-board I). Back-up charging as well as charge maintenance of the vehicle starter battery (Start II) with protection against overcharging. Monitoring-free charging: Standard protection against battery back-discharge (in case of insufficient solar power e.g. dusk, night etc.), against overload and overheating. Buffer operation: Maintains charging characteristics even when operating simultaneously with loads on the battery. Overcharge protection: regulates the charging current of the battery back in case of too much solar power and full battery, ensures the highest possible state of charge of the battery in case of power consumption by immediate recharging. "IU1oU2" charging characteristic: Defined charging voltage increase (U1) prevents harmful acid stratification and ensures equalization charging of the individual battery cells, then automatic trickle charging (U2). On-board filter: Built-in, allows easy parallel operation of the regulator with other charging sources, wind and gasoline generators, mains chargers, alternators, etc. on one battery. Connection for temperature sensor: Automatic adaptation of the charging voltage to the battery temperature. In cold weather, this results in a better full charge of the weaker battery; in summer temperatures, unnecessary battery gassing is avoided. Highly recommended if the battery is exposed to strong temperature fluctuations, e.g. in the engine compartment. Charging cable compensation: Voltage losses on the charging cables are automatically compensated. Measurement output for EBL (vehicle electrical block): Allows convenient use of the (solar) current display built into the electrical block to check the solar system. Please be sure to check the compatibility of your Schaudt electrical block (EBL) and the corresponding control and display panel in advance, as we cannot provide any warranty for this.

Ready to plug in the Votronic solar display LCD-Solar Computer S for optimal control of the system. Charging programs 1 "Gel": Charging program for gel batteries, characteristic IU1oU2oU3 Adapted to sealed, gas-tight gel/dryfit batteries with fixed electrolyte which generally require a higher charging voltage level and longer U1 holding times, in order to achieve short charging times with particularly high capacity storage and to avoid long-term battery "starvation". 2 "AGM": Charging program for AGM/fleece batteries, characteristic IU1oU2oU3 Intended for charging sealed, gas-tight AGM (Absorbent-Glass-Mat) batteries in lead-fleece technology which require a particularly high U1 level with coordinated holding times for full charging and then a moderate U2 level for charge retention (plate and round cell technology). 4 "UNIVERSAL": Charging program for lead-acid/wet/AGM batteries, characteristic IU1oU2oU3 Universal program for charging and charge maintenance of acid batteries in vehicles (mixed mobile/stationary). With medium U1 level, still provides short charge times, good charge factor and good acid mixing for open and closed, low maintenance, maintenance free standard, traction, lighting, solar and heavy duty batteries, as well as AGM batteries with normal U1 level. Li "LiFePO4": Charging program for lithium batteries, characteristic IU1oU2oU3 Charging program adapted to lithium LiFePO4 batteries with own BMS and prescribed or built-in protection circuit. A special resting conservation automatically keeps the LiFePO4 battery at a charge level of 50-80% when the vehicle is parked (seasonal operation) which is beneficial for the service life and also buffers 12 V consumers and the vehicle starter battery. Note that the solar charge regulator should only be used with solar panels up to the maximum power rating (Wp) and below the maximum allowable voltage (Voc). Furthermore, the regulator is not suitable for an input-side connection (+/- solar panels) of wind, water, fuel or motor generators, power supplies, batteries or other power sources.

Remote monitoring and control
You can remotely control and monitor the extensive features of your BlueSolar MPPT charger by attaching a Bluetooth dongle and pairing it with your smartphone or other device via VictronConnect. If your system is connected to the Victron Remote Management Internet portal (VRM) via a GX device, you have full access to your MPPT anytime, anywhere. Both VictronConnect and VRM are available free of charge.
Load output
Too deep discharge of the battery can be prevented by connecting all loads to the load output. The load output disconnects the loads when the battery has been discharged to a preset voltage value. Alternatively, an intelligent battery management algorithm can be selected: see Battery Life.
The load output is short circuit protected. Some loads (especially inverters) are best connected directly to the battery. Inverter remote control is best connected to the load output. A special interface cable may be required, please refer to the manual.
Battery Life: Intelligent battery management
If the solar charge controller is not able to charge the battery to its full capacity within one day, the battery status will constantly alternate between "partially charged" and "end of discharge". This mode of operation (no regular full charging) damages a battery within a few weeks or months.
The Battery Life algorithm monitors the battery's state of charge and, if necessary, raises the load disconnect threshold day by day (i.e., disconnects the load earlier) until the energy gained is sufficient to charge the battery to near 100%. From this point on, the threshold for disconnecting the load is modulated so that charging to nearly 100% is achieved about once a week.

Load output Battery overcharging can be prevented by connecting all loads to the load output. The load output disconnects the loads when the battery has been discharged to a preset voltage value. Alternatively, an intelligent battery management algorithm can be selected: see BatteryLife. The load output is short-circuit proof. Battery Life: intelligent battery management If the solar charge controller is not able to charge the battery to its full capacity within one day, the battery status will constantly alternate between "partially charged" and "end of discharge". This mode of operation (no regular full charge) will damage a lead-acid battery within a few weeks or months. The BatteryLife algorithm monitors the state of charge of the battery and if necessary, day by day, it raises the threshold for disconnecting the load (i.e., the load is disconnected earlier) until the energy gained is sufficient to charge the battery to near 100%. From this point on, the load disconnect threshold is modulated so that charging to near 100% is achieved about once a week. Built-in Bluetooth Smart: No dongle needed. The wireless solution for setting up, monitoring and updating the controller using Apple and Android smartphones, tablets or other devices.

Advanced Maximum Power Point detection in case of partial shading. In case of partial shading, there may be two or more maximum power points (MPP) on the current-voltage curve. Conventional MPPTs tend to settle on a local MPP. However, this may not be the optimal MPP. The BlueSolar device's innovative algorithm will always maximize energy output by adjusting to the optimal MPP. Excellent efficiency One cooling fan. Maximum efficiency at over 98 Flexible charging algorithms Fully programmable charging algorithm (also refer to the software page on our website) and eight pre-programmed algorithms that can be selected via a rotary knob (see our manual for more details). Comprehensive electronic protection Overheating protection and load reduction at high temperatures. PV short circuit and PV reverse polarity protection. PV reverse current protection.
MPP solar controller for high quality motorhomes, caravans and boats. Votronic solar controllers of the series "MPP" (Maximum-Power-Point) with "IU1oU2" charging characteristic are connected as a link between solar panel(s) and battery(ies). With MPP technology, the controller continuously and automatically determines the maximum power point (MPP) of the solar panels several times per second. It then transforms the excess voltage of the solar module to a higher charging current for the battery (realized by high frequency switching controller technology with high efficiency). This charging current gain ensures shorter charging times and the best possible power utilization of the solar system. The MPP solar controllers are fully automatic, maintenance free and offer the following functions: MPP charge current increase compared to conventional controllers by 10% to 30% (efficiency > 95%) due to the use of the latest controller technology (microprocessor). The increase in performance is particularly noticeable during the cooler seasons and, for example, during periods of high snow, low and diffuse lighting (hibernation). For charging lead-gel, lead-AGM, lead-acid batteries or LiFePO4 complete batteries (with integrated BMS, balancing, safety circuit and approval!) of the specified nominal voltages and the co-supply of consumers connected to these batteries in permanently installed systems with the specified battery capacities and charging programs. The charging voltage is free of peaks and regulated in such a way that overcharging of the batteries is excluded. Two battery charging outputs: Automatic charging of the main supply on-board battery (BORD I) and back-up charging and charge maintenance (max. 1 A) of the vehicle starter battery (Start II) with protection against overcharging. Monitoring-free charging: Standard protection against overload, overheating, reverse polarity and battery back discharge (in case of insufficient solar power e.g. dusk, night etc.). Parallel/buffer operation: Compliance with charging regulations even with simultaneous operation of loads. Overcharge protection: regulates the charging current of the battery back in case of too much solar power and full battery, ensures the highest possible state of charge of the battery in case of power consumption by immediate recharging. "IU1oU2" charging characteristic: defined charging voltage increase (U1) prevents harmful acid stratification (lead) and provides equalization charging of individual battery cells (lead and lith.), then automatic trickle charging (U2). Charging cable compensation: Voltage losses on the charging cables are automatically compensated. On-board power supply filter: problem-free parallel operation with wind and motor generators, mains chargers, alternators, etc. Measurement output for EBL, possibly existing electric block in the living area of the vehicle: Allows the convenient use of a (solar) current display built into the electric block to check the solar system. Please make sure to check the compatibility of your Schaudt electric block (EBL) and the corresponding control and display panel in advance, as we cannot assume any warranty for this. Switching output "AES" (only MPP 250, MPP 350 and MPP 430): Causes automatic switching of refrigerators with "AES" (Automatic Energy Selector, Electrolux / Dometic) from gas to 12 V operation in the event of permanently abundant solar power surplus. Connection for battery temperature sensor (Art.-No. 2001): In case of lead batteries, the charging voltage is automatically adjusted to the battery temperature, causes a better full charge of the weaker battery in cold weather, in summer temperatures unnecessary battery gassing and load is avoided. LiFePO4 batteries: Battery protection at high and especially at low temperatures. Highly recommended when the battery temperature may drop below 0°C during operation. Plug-ready for connection of Votronic solar display units LCD-Solar Computer S for optimal control of the system.
