Digital Yacht BM100 Battery Monitoring Solution

Enhance your boat's energy management with the BM100 Battery Monitoring Solution, a comprehensive system designed for precise monitoring and management of your marine electrical systems. Seamlessly integrating with your multi-function display, the BM100 transforms it into a powerful tool for overseeing battery performance and ensuring optimal energy usage on the water.

Key Features

The BM100 Battery Monitoring Solution offers unparalleled accuracy in measuring DC voltage, current, and capacity, providing reliable insights into your boat's battery and electrical systems. Core to its functionality is the SmartShunt, which not only tracks real-time battery voltage and current but also intelligently calculates the state of charge and predicts the time until battery depletion. Additionally, it records essential historical data, including the deepest discharge levels, average discharge currents, and the number of charge and discharge cycles. The SmartShunt is versatile enough to monitor a secondary battery, such as one dedicated to engine starting, ensuring comprehensive battery management.

Advanced Connectivity

The BM100 integrates seamlessly with Digital Yacht’s iSeaSense range of NMEA 2000 boat instruments, utilizing the veKonvert NMEA 2000 interface and Victron’s proprietary VE.Direct data connectivity. This collaboration between Victron Energy and Digital Yacht ensures robust and reliable data transmission across your vessel's electrical network.

NMEA 2000 Interface

With its NMEA 2000 interface, the BM100 allows your navigation multi-function display or plotter to showcase all critical battery parameters. Compatible with leading MFDs from Garmin, Raymarine, Furuno, and Navico, the system enables real-time viewing of electrical data, including voltage, current, and state of charge. Additionally, you can set up alarms and alerts for low capacity and voltage to stay informed and take necessary actions promptly.

Bluetooth Interface

The standalone Bluetooth interface provides wireless connectivity to your mobile devices, such as smartphones and tablets. This feature allows you to remotely monitor current, voltage, capacity, historical data, state of charge, and estimated time until battery depletion. Access detailed battery information conveniently from your preferred device, enhancing your ability to manage energy usage effectively.
