Battery protector 100A Smart - Victron Energy

Product information

Product description

Protects the battery from excessive discharge and can be used as an on/off switch system. The Smart BatteryProtect disconnects the battery from non-essential loads before the battery is fully discharged (which would damage the battery) or before there is insufficient power left to start the engine. The in/output can be used as an on/off switch system.

Automatic detection 12/24V/DC

The Smart BatteryProtect automatically detects the system voltage only once.

Bluetooth: Simple programming

When using Bluetooth to program the Smart BatteryProtect, any required on/off levels can be set. Alternatively, one of nine predefined on/off levels can be set using the programming pin (see manual). If necessary, Bluetooth can be disabled.

Instant Readout

VictronConnect can display key data from the Smart BatteryProtect on the device list page without the need to connect to the product. This includes visual messages of warnings, alarms and errors which enable immediate diagnostics.

A special setting for lithium-ion batteries

In this mode the BatteryProtect can be controlled by the VE.Bus BMS. Note: the BatteryProtect can also be used as a load interrupter between a battery charger and a Li-ion battery. See connection diagram in the manual.

Ultra low power consumption

This is important in case of lithium-ion batteries, especially after a low voltage shutdown.

Surge protection

In order to prevent damage to sensitive loads due to overvoltage, the load is disconnected as soon as the DC voltage exceeds 16 V or 32 V respectively.

Protected against ignition

No relays, but MOSFET switches and therefore no sparks.

Delayed alarm output

The alarm output is activated if the battery voltage drops below the preset disconnect level for more than 12 seconds. Therefore, starting the engine does not activate the alarm. The alarm output is an open collector output that is short circuit proof and connected to the negative (minus) rail, max. current 50 mA. The alarm output is generally used to activate the buzzer, an LED or a relay.

Delayed load disconnection and delayed reconnection

The load is disconnected 90 seconds after the battery voltage has dropped below the preset level. If the battery voltage rises to the connection threshold again within this time frame (after the engine has started, for example), the load is not disconnected. The load is reconnected 30 seconds after the battery voltage has risen above the preset reconnect voltage.
