xVictron SmartSolar MPPT 150/60-Tr Solar Charge Controller
The Victron SmartSolar MPPT 150/60-Tr is a solar charge controller rated for a maximum PV open-circuit voltage of 150V and a maximum charge current of 60A. It is designed for professional off-grid and battery-based solar installations where accurate, efficient battery charging is required. The built-in Bluetooth makes it compatible with the VictronConnect app for configuration and monitoring without additional hardware.
Key Features
- Maximum PV open-circuit voltage of 150V, suitable for higher-voltage panel strings.
- 60A maximum charge current, supporting substantial battery bank charging capacity.
- Built-in Bluetooth for direct configuration and monitoring via the VictronConnect app on iOS and Android.
- MPPT (Maximum Power Point Tracking) algorithm extracts maximum available power from the connected PV array under varying conditions.
- TR (screw terminal) version provides secure, reliable wiring connections suited to permanent installations.
- Compatible with a wide range of battery chemistries including lead-acid (AGM, gel, flooded) and lithium (LiFePO4).
- VE.Direct port for integration with Victron GX devices, Color Control GX, and the broader Victron ecosystem.
- Supports load output control and battery protection functions via programmable relay.
Product Overview
The SmartSolar MPPT 150/60-Tr sits in the mid-to-upper range of Victron's SmartSolar lineup, making it well suited to systems with larger PV arrays or higher battery charge current requirements. The 150V maximum PV voltage allows for longer panel strings in series, which can reduce wiring losses and simplify array design compared to lower-voltage controllers. The 60A output is sufficient to charge 12V, 24V and 48V battery banks, with the controller automatically detecting the battery voltage on first connection.
The built-in Bluetooth removes the need for a separate SmartSolar Bluetooth dongle. Installers can connect directly from a phone or tablet to configure charge parameters, set battery type, adjust absorption and float voltages, and view live data including PV power, battery voltage and charge state. For permanent remote monitoring, the VE.Direct port connects to a Victron GX device or the VRM portal via a Venus GX or Cerbo GX, giving full visibility of system performance over time.
The TR designation refers to the screw terminal (transformer) enclosure style, which is the standard wired version as opposed to the MC4 or other connector variants. This is the appropriate choice for most fixed installations where cables are terminated directly at the controller. The unit is housed in a metal enclosure rated for wall or panel mounting.

Installation Notes
This controller handles PV voltages up to 150V, which is above the safe low-voltage threshold. Installation must be carried out by a qualified electrician or MCS-accredited solar installer. Ensure PV string voltage does not exceed 150V under any conditions, including cold-temperature Voc calculations. Correct fusing and DC isolators must be fitted on both the PV and battery sides in accordance with BS 7671 and applicable wiring regulations. For systems integrated with grid-tied inverters, ensure the overall system design meets G98 or G99 requirements as applicable.
