xVictron SmartSolar MPPT 150/60-MC4 Solar Charge Controller
The Victron SmartSolar MPPT 150/60-MC4 is a solar charge controller designed for professional off-grid and battery-based solar installations. It accepts a maximum PV open-circuit voltage of 150V and delivers up to 60A of charge current, with integrated MC4 connectors for direct panel connection. It is suited to installers and system designers working on residential, commercial and mobile off-grid systems.
Key Features
- Maximum PV open-circuit voltage of 150V, supporting series-connected panel strings.
- 60A maximum charge current, suitable for battery banks from 12V to 48V nominal.
- Integrated MC4 connectors allow direct connection to standard solar panel cables without additional adaptors.
- Built-in Bluetooth via the VictronConnect app for configuration, monitoring and firmware updates from a smartphone or tablet.
- Compatible with Victron's VE.Direct communication port for integration with GX devices, CCGX, Cerbo GX and Venus OS systems.
- Advanced MPPT algorithm with rapid tracking, maintaining high conversion efficiency across varying irradiance conditions.
- Supports lithium (LiFePO4), AGM, gel, flooded and other battery chemistries with configurable charge profiles.
- Load output functionality for direct connection of DC loads with programmable control options.
Product Overview
The SmartSolar MPPT 150/60-MC4 operates across a 12V, 24V or 48V battery voltage range, auto-detected on first connection. The 150V maximum PV voltage allows for longer panel strings in series, reducing cable losses and simplifying array wiring. At 60A output, it can handle arrays up to approximately 800W on a 12V system, 1600W on 24V, or 3200W on a 48V bank, making it a practical choice for mid-to-large off-grid installations.
The MC4 variant integrates the PV input connectors directly into the unit, which reduces the number of field-fitted connections and is particularly useful in installations where the controller is mounted close to the array. Bluetooth is built in as standard, so no external dongle is required. The VictronConnect app provides full access to charge settings, historical data, live monitoring and load output configuration without needing a separate display or GX device.
VE.Direct connectivity allows the controller to feed data into a Victron GX device (such as the Cerbo GX) for whole-system monitoring via the VRM portal. This makes the 150/60-MC4 straightforward to integrate into larger Victron systems alongside MultiPlus or Quattro inverter-chargers, battery monitors and other components.

Installation Notes
Installation should be carried out by a qualified electrician or experienced solar installer. Ensure the PV array open-circuit voltage does not exceed 150V under any temperature conditions, including cold-weather Voc rises. Verify battery voltage compatibility before connection. For systems integrated with grid-tied inverters or connected to a DNO supply, G98 or G99 notification requirements may apply. Lithium battery profiles should only be configured in conjunction with a compatible battery management system. Secure mounting to a non-flammable surface with adequate ventilation is required for safe operation.
