2
battery
3 Battery temperature monitoring
Monitoring of the mid-point voltage
4

6
system voltage
7 Suitable for high voltage systems
8 Several interface options
Remark 1:
Features 2, 3 and 4 are mutually exclusive.
Remark 2:
The cable with integrated temperature sensor has to be purchased
separately (part no: ASS000100000).This temperature sensor is not
interchangeable with other Victron temperature sensors, as used with
Multis or battery chargers.
3.2 Why should I monitor my battery?
Batteries are used in a wide variety of applications, mostly to store energy
for later use. But how much energy is stored in the battery? No one can
tell by just looking at it.
