Victron Smart Battery Sense Long Range (up to 10m)

Smart Battery Sense is a wireless battery voltage and temperature sensor for Victron MPPT Solar Chargers.With voltage and temperature sense in place, batteries will be better charged; improving charging-efficiency and prolonging battery life.

Improves battery charging

By measuring voltage at the battery bank terminals, errors arising from voltage-loss due to cable resistance are avoided – guaranteeing the correct charge-voltage. For lead batteries, battery temperature data is used to adjust the charge-voltages: cold batteries require an increased charge-voltage, whereas hot batteries require a decreased charge-voltage. For lithium batteries temperature data is used to disable charging when they are too cold: charging lithium batteries near or below freezing causes permanent damage to the cells.

No wires

The connection between Smart Battery Sense and one or more Solar Charger(s) is wireless: It uses VE.Smart Network – a wireless technology based on Bluetooth Smart. Information transmitted can be used simultaneously by one, two or more Solar Chargers connected to the same 12V, 24V and 48V battery bank. The Smart Network is set up using the VictronConnect app.

Tidy, simple & smart

Installation is simple, quick and tidy. Just connect the unit’s two eyelets to your battery terminals and attach the Smart Battery Sense unit directly onto the battery-body using its self-adhesive strip.

Features: 

• Up to 10 metres in length. 
• Improves battery charging. 
• Bluetooth connection. 
• Quick installation.

Victron Orion-Tr Smart 12/12-30A (360W) DC-DC charger.

The Orion-Tr Smart DC-DC charger is a professional DC to DC adaptive 3-stage charger with built-in Bluetooth. Suitable for high temperatures up to 55°C with a full rated output up to 40°C.

For use in dual battery systems in vehicles or on boats where the (smart) alternator and the start battery are used to charge the service battery. The unit can be monitored and programmed via Bluetooth and can be remotely controlled via a remote on/off switch and has an engine running detection mechanism.The Orion Tr-Smart charger can be used in 12V or 24V systems and is suitable for both lead acid and lithium batteries. Models are available up to 400W and unlimited multiple units can be connected in parallel to increase output power.

Isolated DC to DC Chargers Vs Non-Isolated DC to DC Chargers:

An isolated DC to DC charger has one negative connection for each battery and there is no internal connection between the negatives. They are required for systems that need to be isolated which could be for a number of reasons including;

• Limiting corrosion (Typically marine applications).
• Preventing noise on one battery system from effecting the other battery system.

For systems that do not require isolation – either unit can be used, but the non-isolated requires one less wire to be installed.
In automotive systems, the negative of both batteries is typically connected to the chassis of the vehicle. This is a non-isolated system, therefore either unit will be suitable.

DC to DC Charger without solar regulator:

The advantage of separating the DC-DC charger from solar regulator

• The DC to DC charger can remain cheaper
• Solar can be charging into the battery system simultaneously with the on-board vehicle charging
• You can purchase the correct solar regulator to match your solar panels, which will provide the best efficiency for solar charging
