Victron Energy SolarSense 750 Standalone PV-installation monitor

Victron SolarSense 750

The SolarSense 750 is a compact, self-powered wireless sensor designed to help users better understand and optimize the performance of their photovoltaic (PV) systems. By providing real-time data about available solar energy, the device helps maximize the usefulness of every watt your solar array produces.

In many off-grid or grid-limited solar systems, extra solar energy can go unused once batteries reach full charge. Instead of letting this excess energy go to waste, it can be directed toward other loads such as water heating, appliances, or other electrical devices.

Optimize Solar Array Placement

The SolarSense 750 provides accurate, real-time measurements of available solar production. This information can be used by system operators or automation systems to intelligently manage energy consumption and make better use of surplus PV power. The result is improved energy efficiency and reduced reliance on stored battery power later in the day.

The SolarSense 750 can also be used as a testing or “pilot” device when planning new solar installations. By measuring solar yield across different mounting locations, panel orientations, and seasonal conditions, it provides valuable insight into how environmental factors affect PV output.

This data can help installers and system designers determine the best placement and configuration for solar modules, leading to more efficient and productive system designs.

Wireless and Self-Powered Design

Installation is quick and simple thanks to the SolarSense 750’s fully wireless design. The device includes a small integrated solar panel that powers the unit, eliminating the need for external wiring or power connections.

Data is transmitted using Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) broadcast communication, allowing nearby devices to receive instant readouts without complex network configuration. This cable-free design makes the SolarSense 750 particularly useful for remote locations, temporary measurements, and hard-to-reach installations.
