Can this charge controller and panels work 🤔

Hey guys,
I am wondering if my maths is correct. I have a Victron 100/50 charge controller in a 24v configuration. It’s max PV input voltage is 100v and max PV short circuit current 60A. 1400w nominal PV power for 24v.

I am eyeing 4 APTOS 370w byfacial panels (DNA-120-BF26-370W) in a 2s 2p configuration. The panel specs are 370w, open circuit VOC 41.4v and short circuit current 11.26. A theoretical 1480w max.

So my math is two sets of panels in parallel [11.26 + 11.26] 22.52a + [11.26 + 11.26] 22.52a then joint them in series which [41.4v x 2] 82.8v.

The 22.52a is below the 60a max for CC and the 82.8v is below the 100v max for the CC

This seems to fit with in the specs of charge controller. Am I missing something here. Am I calculating correctly. Most importantly can this work safely. FYI in live in the tropics warm to hot weather all year round, so cold weather is not a factor.

Looks like your math is good

If it’s easier - join to panels in series first, then connect those two in parallel- that way you only have one parallel combination point.

Your setup is about ideal for that combination- the math is correct.
