40+ years of solar products and service - now available to order online!
Solcan is proud to be one of the earliest providers of solar energy solutions for residential and commercial properties across Canada.
The Victron SmartSolar charge controller gets connected between the photovoltaic modules and the batteries allowing the product to increase energy harvest out of the modules as efficiently as possible.
The Victron SmartSolar Charge Controller has an ultra fast Maximum power point tracking (MPPT) controller that improves the energy harvest by 30% compared to PWM controllers and by up to 10% compared to the slower MPPT controllers. Especially in the clouded sky when the light intensity is changing continuously.
The Victron SmartSolar Charge Controller uses the advanced Maximum Power Point Detection in case of partial shading conditions. I partial shading happens two or more maximum power points may be presented on the power-voltage curve. Conventional MPPTs tend to lock to a local Maximum Power Point (MPP), which may not be the optimum but the innovative SmartSolar algorithm will always maximize the energy harvest by locking to the optimum MPP.
This Victron SmartSolar charge controller comes with the remote management possibility using your smart phone or other Bluetooth-enabled devices. This feature can be used for control, monitor and update the system wirelessly in the comfort of your home using the VictronConnect application. You also be connected directly to a Color Control GX, computer or other devices.
The SmartSolar charger is equipped with an Internal temperature sensor to compensate the charging voltage according to its temperature. If the system temperature rises the controller’s Extensive electronic protection, will automatically reduce its output current (temperature >40°C). In addition to the mentioned protection systems this system is also equipped with safety devices against overheating, short circuit, polarity reversal and module current reversal.
The bottom line is...we know what we do, and we love doing it! We've been in the solar industry for decades, and are constantly adapting and integrating new technologies into our design and monitoring processes. Being around for this long means we've had the opportunity to cultivate relationships with industry professionals and green energy advocates across Canada, as well as maintain loyal relationships with our quality suppliers.
Shopping solcan™ means our decades of experience are behind you. It means our benefits get paid forward to our customers. And it means that you're supporting a Canadian owned and operated business dedicated to the transition to renewable energy and the technology needed to achieve it.
We have gained at least 8° on our average pool temperature, and our swimming season has been extended by almost 8 weeks. If you are thinking of solar, I couldn't recommend Solcan more!
What a fabulous company to have purchased our solar panels from...We couldn't be happier with our solar panels...they make the pool much warmer and enjoyable!
