Exotronic 200W Portable Folding Solar Panel + Victron SmartSolar 75/15

Product Description

Exotronic 200W Portable Folding Solar Panel + Victron SmartSolar 75/15

Solar Panel

When camping, parking under shade, or need access to free power to charge your battery, Exotronic has you covered with a strong but small form-factor foldable glass solar panel solution.  The 200W briefcase is made up from two 100W solar modules using Trina half-cut 23% PERC monocrystalline solar cells with 9-wire busbars to maximise module efficiency.

Weighing only 11.2kg, this panel can be manoeuvred with minimal effort.

Each folded section is wired independently, so if one side is shaded the other side will still operate.

These modules include bumpers on the corners and fold-away legs,

Also included is an array of premium quality cables to suit any situation:

• 5m 4mm2 PV1-F heavy duty tinned copper (marine) MC4 to 50A grey Anderson cable between the solar panel and solar charge controller (this can be connected directly to your existing DC-DC charger solar input or solar controller) - do not connect the panel directly to a battery without a controller
• 2x 50A grey Anderson tails, to connect to your existing MPPT or PWM solar controller
• Alligator to 50A grey Anderson with 30A fuse (this can be used to jump start a lithium battery BMS or charge a starter battery when needed)

The included padded canvas bag helps protect the solar module from scratches when stored away and includes a carry handle and pocket to store the cables and controller when not in use.

Using 23% efficient Trina monocrystalline passivated emitter rear contact (mono-PERC) square cut cells and the latest 9-wire bus-bar low-loss design, these panels achieve a high efficiency with a positive power tolerance. 

PERC cells provide better performance in low light applications compared to traditional monocrystalline silicone designs as some of the light that passes through the cell is bounced back and converted into electricity.

The 9-wire busbar decreases the resistance of the module and carries current evenly over the whole surface of the cells to ensure that all there are minimal power losses within the module and significantly reduces uneven cell heating and hot spots.

Solar Charge Controller

For best performance and safety of the solar controller, place the solar controller near your battery under cover, this reduces heat transfer from the MPPT to the solar panel and vice-versa.

Tracer Dream 75V Bluetooth Series adopts MPPT technology. Using a 32 bit CPU, stability and speed can be guaranteed. Based on the synchronous rectifier technology, the transfer efficiency of circuit is increased up to 98.5% and the Pmax tracking accuracy up to 99.5%. So our MPPT can trace the accurate Pmax in the shortest time, even when the sunlight changes rapidly. It can perfectly handle extreme weather or weak sunlight.

Victron Energy Limited Warranty Policy

Victron Energy warrants its products to be free from defects in workmanship and materials for a period of 5 years from the date of purchase by the end user, with a maximum of 66 months from the Victron Energy invoice date. Exceptions on this are: lead acid batteries; 2 years from date of purchase by the end user, with a maximum of 30 months from the Victron Energy invoice date, Lithium-ion batteries; 3 years from date of purchase by the end user. In addition to this proof of correct battery usage is required when making a battery warranty claim.

During this period, Victron Energy will, at its option, repair or replace the defective product free of charge. The warranty does not include performing or reimbursing de‐installation, transportation and re‐installation.

• Reverse of battery polarity.
• Inadequate connection.
• Mechanical shock or deformation.
• Contact with liquid or oxidation by condensation.
• Use in inappropriate environment (dust, corrosive vapor, humidity, high temperature, biological infestation...).
• Breakage or damage due to lightning.
• Connection terminals and screws destroyed or other damages, like overheat, due to insufficient tightening.
• For any electronical breakage except due to lightning (reverse polarity, over‐voltage due to external cause), the state ofthe internal control diode and of the inputs/output X and Y capacitors determine the warranty.
