Victron 150W 12V Mono 1485 × 668 × 30 mm Series 4a Solar Panels
- 150 W monocrystalline solar panel for building a 12 V off-grid battery-charging system with a suitable solar charge controller.
- 1485 × 668 × 30 mm module with an anodised aluminium frame, tempered glass and pre-wired MC4 connections.
- 5-year limited materials and workmanship warranty, plus a 25-year limited power-output and performance warranty.
Victron 150W 12V mono Series 4a solar panel
The Victron BlueSolar 150W 12V mono solar panel is a framed module for off-grid battery systems on vehicles, remote buildings and other sites without a dependable mains supply. The SPM041501200 uses 36 monocrystalline cells in series and provides 150 W rated output under standard test conditions, with an 18.2 V maximum-power voltage.
Key features
- 150 W rated output: a practical building block for small battery-backed power systems, with panel quantities selected to match the load and available mounting space.
- Pre-wired connections: 900 mm cables with MC4 connectors for connection to correctly specified PV cabling.
- Framed construction: anodised aluminium frame and high-transmission tempered glass, with EVA encapsulation and a triple-layer backsheet.
- Bypass diodes: help reduce the power drop caused by shading; the sealed, waterproof junction box protects the module connections.
- Manufacturer warranty: 5 years for materials and workmanship, with electrical performance warranted at 90% of rated output at 10 years and 80% at 25 years, subject to warranty terms.
Where to use
Applications include welfare cabins, remote monitoring equipment, small agricultural outbuildings, service vehicles, campervans and other off-grid installations. Check that the mounting location can accommodate the 1485 × 668 mm footprint and 11 kg module weight.
The 12 V designation describes the panel’s nominal battery-system application, not a regulated 12 V output. Use a suitable solar charge controller between the panel and battery, with settings appropriate to the battery chemistry.
For multiple-panel arrays, check series and parallel wiring against the controller’s PV voltage, current and power limits, including cold-weather open-circuit voltage. The 1000 V maximum module system voltage is not a charge-controller input rating.
Energian can help with panel quantities, controller selection, battery compatibility, cabling, protection and mounting. Installation can be arranged through trusted partners where the complete system cannot be used out of the box.
