Description
The Victron BMV-700 battery monitor is a highly accurate, easy to install, and reasonably priced device that monitors multiple parameters for a battery bank. The monitor performs sophisticated calculations to correct for inefficiencies in charging and variability in the power available from the battery depending on the rate of discharge. Installation is a snap, and the display comes with both a round and square bezel that fits a 52mm (2-1/16") hole. An improved menu makes navigating the display easy. Displays include: battery voltage, real-time current, consumed amp-hours, state of charge, and time to go. There are also user-programmable alarms. Suitable for all systems from 9 to 90 VDC.
The Victron BMV battery monitors are highly accurate, incredibly easy to install, and very reasonably priced. The BMV-700 monitors multiple parameters for a battery bank via a 500 amp shunt. Since there are inefficiencies in charging, and variability in the power available from the battery depending on the rate of discharge (Peukert's law), the monitor performs sophisticated calculations to correct for these factors. * * * Installation is a snap. The monitor display comes with both a round and square bezel, and fits a 52mm (2-1/16") hole. The shunt attaches between the battery and the ground connections, and a provided network cable connects the two. * * * An improved menu makes navigating the display easy.
