Low Voltage Load Disconnect with Bluetooth

Protects the battery against excessive discharge and can be used as a system on/off switch. The Smart BatteryProtect disconnects the battery from non-essential loads before it is completely discharged (which would damage the battery) or before it has insufficient power left to crank the engine.  The on/off input can be used as a system on/off switch.

Smart BatteryProtect

The Smart BatteryProtect disconnects the battery from non-essential loads before it is completely discharged (which would damage the battery) or before it has insufficient power left to crank the engine. When using Bluetooth to program the Smart BatteryProtect any required engage/disengage levels can be set. Alternatively, one of nine predefined engage/disengage levels can be set with the programming pin (see manual). 

The Smart BatteryProtect is a uni-directional device. It can only deal with current in one direction, so either current to a load, or current from a charger, but not both currents at the same time. In addition to this, current only can only flow from the IN terminal to the OUT terminal. In case of use with a load, the battery connects to the IN terminal, and in case of use with a charger, the charger connects to the IN terminal.

EASY TO INSTALL 

The Smart BatteryProtect automatically detects system voltage one time only.  Bluetooth: programming made easy When using Bluetooth to program the Smart BatteryProtect any required engage/disengage levels can be set. Alternatively, one of nine predefined engage/disengage levels can be set with the programming pin (see manual). If required, Bluetooth can be disabled. 

• Instant Readout: VictronConnect can display the most important data of the Smart BatteryProtect on the Device List page without the need to pair with the product. This includes visual notifications of warnings, alarms, and errors that enable diagnostics at a glance.  
• A special setting for Li-ion batteries: In this mode the BatteryProtect can be controlled by the VE.Bus BMS. Note: the BatteryProtect can also be used as a charge interrupter in between a battery charger and a Li-ion battery. See connection diagram in the manual.  
• Ultra-low current consumption:This is important in case of Li-ion batteries, especially after low voltage shutdown. Please see our Li-ion battery datasheet and the VE.Bus BMS manual for more information.  
• Over voltage protection: To prevent damage to sensitive loads due to over voltage, the load is disconnected whenever the DC voltage exceeds 16.3V respectively 32.6V.  
• Ignition proof: 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 during more than 12 seconds. Starting the engine will therefore not activate the alarm. The alarm output is a short circuit proof open collector output to the negative (minus) rail, max. current 50 mA. The alarm output is typically used to activate a buzzer, LED or relay.  
• Delayed load disconnect and delayed reconnect: The load will be disconnected 90 seconds after the battery voltage drops below the preset level. If the battery voltage increases again to the connect threshold within this time period (after the engine has been started for example), the load will not be disconnected. The load will be reconnected 30 seconds after the battery voltage has increased to more than the preset reconnect voltage.

LOOKING FOR A 12V LITHIUM BATTERY CHARGER ADD ARDENT 

DC-DC Charging For Lithium Batteries

Regarding DC-DC Chargers and solar controllers, you must change these to LiFePO4-specific models, which can charge your Lithium batteries to an entire 100% State of Charge.  **If you are charging from an alternator, you will need a DC-DC Charger that is designed to manage solar specific to lithium (LiFEPO4).

12/24V Auto Ranging:

The Smart BatteryProtect automatically detects system voltage one time only.

Bluetooth - Programming Made Easy:

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

Special Settings for Li-ion Batteries:

In this mode, the BatteryProtect can be controlled by the VE.Bus BMS.

Note: the BatteryProtect can also be used as a charge interrupter in between a battery charger and a Li-ion battery. See the connection diagram in the manual.

Ultra-low Current Consumption:

This is important in the case of Li-ion batteries, especially after low voltage shutdown. Please see our Li-ion battery datasheet and the VE. Bus BMS manual for more information.

Over Voltage Protection:

To prevent damage to sensitive loads due to overvoltage, the load is disconnected whenever the DC voltage exceeds 16.3V respectively 32.6V.

No relays but MOSFET switches, and therefore no sparks.

The alarm output is a short circuit-proof open collector output to the negative (minus) rail, max. current 50 mA. The alarm output is typically used to activate a buzzer, LED or relay.

If the battery voltage increases again to the connect threshold within this time period (after the engine has been started for example), the load will not be disconnected. The load will be reconnected 30 seconds after the battery voltage has increased to more than the preset reconnect voltage.
