Victron BMV-700 Battery Monitor (Dashboard Mount) The remaining battery capacity depends on the ampere-hours consumed, discharge current, temperature and the age of the battery. Complex software algorithms are needed to take all these variables into account. Next to the basic display options, such as voltage, current and ampere-hours consumed, the BMV-700 series also displays state of charge, time to go, and power consumption in Watts.

Victron Colour Control GX Panel (System Controller)

The Colour Control GX is the communication-centre of your installation. It offers at-a-glance live information, and lets you control all products connected to it. Full system control is gained - almost anywhere in the world - by accessing your Color Control GX using our free-to-use Victron Remote Management Portal At a single touch, Colour Control GX provides an instant overview

of your system: battery state of charge; present power consumption; power harvest from PV; power provision from mains/generator. The Colour Control GX manages Energy Storage Systems. It keeps back-up batteries at 100% ; kicks-in during power-cuts; and diverts excess (solar) power to self-consumption - saving you money. The Color Control GX can be programmed to auto-start your generator - triggered by low-voltage; high-demand; or battery state of charge. It can be further tailored to delay ignition until the end of ‘quiet’ periods - avoiding accidental nuisance at dead of night. Planning a trip? Remote monitoring of your Color Control GX allows you to make sure your boat or motorhome are ready to go. Color Control GX also allows you to talk to connected equipment from other manufacturers.

Easy to install All electrical connections are to the quick connect PCB on the current shunt. The shunt connects to the monitor with a standard RJ12 telephone cable. Included: RJ 12 cable (10 m) and battery cable with fuse (2 m); no other components needed. Also included are a separate front bezel for a square or round display appearance, a securing ring for the rear mounting and screws for the front mounting. VV-032

Victron Venus GX System Monitor

Victron BMV-702 Battery Monitor (Black / 9V to 90V) The remaining battery capacity depends on the ampere-hours consumed, discharge current, temperature and the age of the battery. Complex software algorithms are needed to take all these variables into account. Next to the basic display options, such as voltage, current and ampere-hours consumed, the BMV-700 series also displays state of charge, time to go, and power consumption in Watts.

The Venus GX is the communication centre of your installation. Venus allows you to talk to all components in your system and ensure they are working in harmony. Monitoring of live data (such as battery capacity, charging status, tank levels etc), and changing settings is performed by

using your smartphone (or other device) via the free-to-use Victron Remote Management Portal (VRM). Please see downloads/data sheets for more information. VV-051

The BMV-702 features an additional input which can be programmed to measure the voltage (of a second battery), battery temperature or midpoint voltage. Easy to install All electrical connections are to the quick connect PCB on the current shunt. The shunt connects to the monitor with a standard RJ12 telephone cable. Included: RJ 12 cable (10 m) and battery cable with fuse (2 m); no other components needed. Also included are a separate front bezel for a square or round display appearance, a securing ring for the rear mounting and screws for the front mounting. Midpoint voltage monitoring (BMV-702 only) This feature, which is often used in industry to monitor large and expensive battery banks, is now for the first time made available at a low cost, to monitor any battery bank. A battery bank consists of a string of series connected cells. The midpoint voltage is the voltage halfway along the string. Ideally, the midpoint voltage would be exactly half of the total voltage. In practice, however, deviations will be seen, that depend on many factors such as a different state of charge for new batteries or cells, different temperatures, internal leakage currents, capacities and much more. Large or increasing deviation of the midpoint voltage, points to improper battery care or a failed battery or cell. Corrective action following a midpoint voltage alarm can prevent severe damage to an expensive battery. VV-024

Victron BMV-712 Smart Battery Monitor (9-90V)

With Bluetooth built-in, the BMV Smart is ready for the Internet of Things (IoT) era. With Bluetooth being implemented in most other Victron Energy products, wireless communication between products will simplify system installation and enhance performance. Can be used with the Victron Bluetooth app on your smartphone or other device to customise settings and monitor data. VV-112 You can display your BMV or MPPT information on iOS and Android devices, using the Victron Connect app. View information wirelessly such as battery status and solar panel power, plus other useful data. The dongle is able to read data from all products with a VE.Direct port, such as the BMV-70x series battery monitors, Phoenix Inverters with VE.Direct port, MPPT Solar Charge Controllers.
