MPPT Heat Dissapation

How can i calculate the max heat a Victron MPPT 100/50 would need to dissipate when driven by 3 PV panels in parallel? i.e. I would think one should be able to calculate this from the PV panel specs. Thanks.

Assume all power consumed is dissipated as heat (check datasheet for power consumption)


Assume only 95% efficient and the 5% loss from the panels is dissipated as heat.
