The BMV-600S and BMV-602S are our newest high precision battery monitors. The essential function of a battery monitor is to calculate ampere-hours consumed and the state of charge of a battery. Ampere-hours consumed are calculated by integrating the current flowing in or out of the battery.

• Highest resolution: 10mA (0,01A) with 500A shunt.
  Lowest current consumption: 1mA.
  Easiest to wire: the BMV-600 comes with shunt, 10 meter RJ 12 UTP cable and 2 meter battery cable with fuse. No other components needed.
  Easiest to install: separate front bezel for square or round appearance; ring for rear mounting and screws for front mounting.
  

The BMV-602 has a second voltage measurement input. This input can for example be used to measure the voltage of a starter battery

Precision monitoring
The essential function of a battery monitor is to calculate ampere-hours consumed and the state of charge of a battery. Ampere-hours consumed is calculated by integrating the current flowing in or out of the battery. In case of a constant current, this integration is equivalent to current multiplied by time. A discharge current of 10A during 2 hours, for example, amounts to 20Ah consumed. All our battery
monitors are based on a powerful microprocessor, programmed with the algorithms needed for precision monitoring.

Standard information and alarms
- Battery voltage (V).
- Battery charge/discharge current (A).
- Ampere-hours consumed (Ah).
- State of charge (%).
- Time to go at the current rate of discharge.
- Visual and audible alarm: over- and under voltage, and/or battery discharged.
- Programmable alarm or generator start relay.

BMV 600S: low cost ultra high resolution monitor
- Highest resolution: 10mA (0,01A) with 500A shunt.

- Can be used with 50, 60 or 100mV shunts, current rating from 100A to 1000A
- Lowest current consumption: 4mA @12V and 3mA @ 24V.
- Easiest to wire: the BMV 600S comes with shunt, 10 meter RJ 12 UTP cable and 2 meter battery cable with fuse; no other components needed.
- Easiest to install: separate front bezel for square or round appearance; ring for rear mounting and screws for front mounting.
- Broadest voltage range: 9.5 – 95 VDC without prescaler needed.
- Communication port (Isolated RS232 interface is needed to connect to a computer)

BMV 602S: (two batteries)
In addition to all the features of the BMV600S, the BMV602S can measure the voltage of a second battery.
A version with a black front bezel (BMV 602S Black) is also available.

BMV 602HS: (70 to 350VDC voltage range)
No prescaler needed. Note: suitable for systems with grounded minus only (battery monitor is not
isolated from shunt).



Optional Isolated RS232 communication interface and software
(for all BMV models) Displays all information on a computer and loads charge/discharge data in an Excel
file for graphical display.

VE.Net Battery Controller

VE.Net Battery Controller: any number of batteries
- One VE.Net panel or Blue Power panel will connect to any number of battery controllers.
- Comes with 500A/50mV shunt and can be programmed for 50, 60 or 100mV shunts, current rating from
100A to 10.000A.
- With use, abuse and data memory.
- Temperature sensor and connection kit included.

No more guessing
Identifying exactly how much energy is left in a battery is not easy. A voltmeter is useful but will only indicate that the battery is flat when it is too late. In order to keep an accurate record of what is stored in a battery it is necessary to keep account of all the factors that affect it and this is a complex matter. Once a reliable reading of the state of charge of the battery is available however, life starts to get an awful lot less complicated.
No more nasty surprises with batteries going flat unexpectedly and it becomes possible to manage batteries on fact rather than
guess work. It is amazing how much power you can have with a little extra knowledge!

Accurate and reliable
The data used by the VE.Net Battery Controller is monitored with an accuracy better than 0,5% and, employing Peukert’s formula, account is taken of the reduction of effective capacity of the battery when the discharge current increases. An optional temperature sensor helps to further improve accuracy where wide temperature variation is expected.

Standard information
- Battery voltage (V)
- Battery charge/discharge current (A)
- Consumed Ampere-hours (Ah)
- State of charge of the battery (%)
- Time to go (until the battery it flat at the present rate of discharge)
- Battery temperature

Start your generator
The VE.Net Battery Controller has a relay that you can use to start your generator or to activate an external alarm for remote monitoring. With the built in and adjustable hysteresis for State of Charge (%) you can program when to close and open the contacts at your desired levels.

Adjustable Alarms
The Battery Controller can generate alarms on:
- Low voltage
- High voltage
- State of charge
Intelligent communication to other VE.Net enabled devices The data from the Battery monitor will be available to all devices on the VE.Net network. The VE.Net Generator Module can use it to start and stop the generator. VE.Net enabled Battery Chargers can use it to optimize the charge currents to eliminate influences from a varying load.

Historic data
To enable you to interrogate;
- Deepest discharge (Ah)
- Depth of last discharge (Ah)
- Number of cycles
- Average discharge (Ah)
- Number of full discharges
- Cumulative Battery Amp Hours (Ah)
- Maximum Battery Volts (V)
- Minimum Battery Volts (V)
- Days since last full charge

Variable shunt parameters
The VE.Net Battery Controller can be used with any shunt as an alternative to the standard 500A/50mv shunt included with the package. In the menu you can setup the full current rating of the shunt (10 - 50000A) and the according voltage in millivolts (10 - 50 mV).

High voltage VE.Net Battery Controller: 70 to 350VDC
No prescaler needed. Note: RJ45 connectors are galvanically isolated from Controller and shunt.

VE.Net Global Remote

Victron Global Remote
The Global Remote is a modem which sends alarms, warnings and system status reports to cellular phones via text messages (SMS). It can also log data from Victron Battery Monitors, MultiPlus units, Quattro’s and Inverters to a website through a GPRS connection. Access to this
website is free of charge.
