- Product description
The BMV-700is a high-precision battery monitor. The main function of a battery monitor is to calculate the ampere-hours consumed and the state of charge of a battery. The ampere-hours consumed are calculated by integrating the current flowing into or out of the battery.
Simple installation
All electrical connections are made via the quick connection board on the current shunt. The shunt is connected to the monitor using a standard RJ12 telephone cable. Included in the scope of delivery: RJ 12 cable (10 m) and battery cable with fuse (2 m); no other components required.
Also included are a separate front frame for a square or round display look, a locking ring for rear mounting and screws for front mounting.
