BMV-712 Smart

Take the guesswork out of your energy storage with the Victron Energy BMV-712 Smart Battery Monitor. This high-precision system is the gold standard for monitoring lead-acid, AGM, and Lithium battery banks. By calculating ampere-hours consumed and the battery's current state of charge, the BMV-712 provides a clear, real-time picture of your power reserves, ensuring you never get left in the dark. With its integrated Bluetooth, you can access all your critical data right from your smartphone, making it the perfect companion for off-grid solar systems, marine vessels, and RV enthusiasts who demand reliability. Key Features and Smart Integration Built-in Bluetooth: No extra dongles required. Use the VictronConnect app to customize settings, monitor data on a single screen, and update firmware wirelessly. Comprehensive Tracking: Monitor voltage, current, power, ampere-hours consumed, and the calculated State of Charge (SoC). Time-to-Go Indicator: Provides an estimate of how long the battery can support the current load before it requires recharging. Programmable Relay: Use the integrated dry contact relay to automatically start a generator or toggle non-critical loads based on battery voltage or SoC. Historical Data: Access 30 days of history to analyze usage patterns, deepest discharges, and charge cycles to maximize battery lifespan. Advanced Midpoint Voltage Monitoring One of the standout features of the BMV-712 Smart is its ability to monitor the midpoint voltage of your battery bank. In series-connected systems, a single failing cell or battery can compromise the entire bank. The BMV-712 can trigger an alarm if the midpoint voltage deviates, allowing you to identify and fix issues before they lead to expensive battery replacements. This level of protection is essential for maintaining the health of large 24V or 48V battery arrays. Technical Specifications Supply Voltage Range: 6.5 - 70 VDC, suitable for 12V, 24V, and 48V systems. Current Draw: Extremely low at only 1mA with the backlight off. Included Shunt: 500A / 50mV quick-connect shunt for easy installation. Communication Port: VE. Direct port for integration with GX devices (CCGX, Cerbo GX) and GlobalLink 520. Installation Kit: Includes a 10-meter RJ12 cable and a 2-meter battery cable with an integrated fuse. Versatile Applications Whether you are managing a remote off-grid cabin, a luxury yacht, or a cross-country motorhome, the BMV-712 provides the professional-grade data you need. Its rugged construction and 5-year manufacturer warranty reflect Victron Energy's commitment to quality. The unit features a programmable visual and audible alarm to alert you to low voltage or low state-of-charge conditions, preventing permanent damage to your battery investment. Installation is streamlined thanks to the quick-connect PCB on the shunt and the standard 52mm diameter head unit, which fits most existing gauge holes. With the Victron BMV-712 Smart, you are not just buying a meter; you are investing in the long-term health and efficiency of your entire power system.
