Built-In Protection Functions
The Victron SmartShunt is designed with intelligent monitoring capabilities to safeguard your battery system. It allows users to set configurable high/low thresholds for battery voltage, state of charge, and (with an optional sensor) battery temperature. If any monitored parameter falls outside these specified safe ranges, the SmartShunt will activate an alarm within the connected VictronConnect mobile app, providing timely alerts to prevent potential damage or system issues.
Common Questions
What battery types are compatible with the SmartShunt?
The Victron 2000A SmartShunt is suitable for use with any 12V, 24V, or 48V Lead Acid (including Gel and AGM) and Lithium battery or battery bank.
How do I view the battery data?
The SmartShunt connects wirelessly via its inbuilt Bluetooth to the VictronConnect App on your smartphone or tablet. This app serves as the display, showing all monitored battery parameters in real-time.
Can I connect a temperature sensor?
Yes, the auxiliary input on the SmartShunt can be used to connect an optional Victron battery temperature sensor (sold separately, Victron product code ASS000100000) for enhanced monitoring and temperature-compensated charging.
Where should the SmartShunt be installed?
The SmartShunt should be connected on the negative battery wire, as close to the battery bank as possible. It has an IP21 rating, meaning it is not waterproof and must be mounted in a dry location.
Installation Notes
- Connect the SmartShunt to the negative terminal of your battery bank.
- Ensure the shunt is installed in a dry, protected location due to its IP21 rating.
- Use the supplied positive supply cables with fuses for connection to the battery banks.
- For optimal Bluetooth range, avoid mounting near large metallic objects that could interfere with the signal.
- Refer to the detailed user manual for comprehensive wiring diagrams and setup instructions.
Before You Buy
- Verify your battery system's nominal voltage (12V, 24V, or 48V) matches the SmartShunt's compatibility.
- Confirm your maximum expected continuous current draw does not exceed 2000A.
- Consider if an optional temperature sensor is required for your specific battery type and charging setup.
- Ensure you have a Bluetooth-enabled mobile device (smartphone or tablet) to utilise the VictronConnect App.
- Professional installation is recommended for complex systems to ensure correct wiring and configuration.
Always verify product specifications and compatibility with your existing system before purchase. This Victron Energy product is covered by a 5-year manufacturer warranty.
