Optional (ASS000100000)
Color Control
The powerful Linux computer, hidden
behind the
colour display and buttons,
collects data from all Victron equipment
and sho
ws it on the display. Besides
communicating with
Victron
equipment, the Color Control
communicates through
CAN bus
(
NMEA2000), Ethernet and USB.
Data can be stored and
analysed on the
VRM Portal
.
1000A/50mV, 2000A/50mV and 6000A/50mV shunt
T
he quick connect PCB on the standard 500A/50mV shunt can also be mounted on these
shunts.
Interface cables
-
VE.Direct cables to connect a BMV 712 to the Color Control (ASS030530xxx)
-
VE.Direct to USB interface (ASS030530000) to connect several BMV 70x to the Color Control
or to a computer.
A maximum of four BMVs can be connected directly to the Color Control.
Even more BMVs can be connected to a USB Hub for central monitoring.
Battery Balancer (BMS012201000)
The Battery Balancer equalizes the state of
ch
arge of two series connected 12V batteries, or
of several parallel strings of series connected
batteries.
When the charge voltage of a 24
V battery
system increases to more than 27V, the Battery
Balancer will turn on and compare the voltage
over the two series connecte
d batteries. The
Battery Balancer will draw a current of up to 1A
from the battery (or parallel connected
batteries) with the highest voltage. The resulting
charge current differential will ensure that all
batteries will converge to the same state of
charg
e.
If needed, several balancers can be paralleled.
A 48
V battery bank can be balanced with three
Battery Balancers.
Venus GX
The Venus GX provides intuitive control and monit
oring. It has the same
fun
ctionality as the Color Control GX, with a few extras:
-
lower cost, mainly because it has no display or buttons
-
3 tank sender inputs
-
2 temperature inputs
Temperature sensor
