BM100

Description

BM100 installation for Multi-Battery bank

You can monitor batteries in parallel (or series) with the BM-100 as long as the 500A continuous current rating is not exceeded.

The BM-100 will cope with sudden spikes in current well above 500A, for instance during engine starting.

You can also mix and match Victron kit with our veKonvert. We offer the BM-100 bundle, just so our customers can order a popular combination, but there is nothing to stop you buying any Victron Smart Shunt with ve.Direct interface and plugging it in to one of our veKonverts.

veKonvert will even work with Victron BMV units and MPPTs, it detects what it is connected to and changes its operation to suit.

How to setup and calibrate veKonvert for my boat’s battery system?

veKonvert connects to the SmartShunt via the veDirect interface.  All calibration of the boat’s battery capacity etc is done via the Bluetooth interface integrated into the SmartShunt.  Download the Victron app and follow the set up instructions included with the SmartShunt.  There’s no calibration required on the veKonvert interface

Are larger shunts available for BM100?

As standard the BM100 includes a 500A shunt.  1000A and 2000A variants are available to special order.  Please contact us.
