ABOUT THE BC300 EXTERNAL SHUNT AND COMMLINK

The BMPRO BC300 External Shunt and CommLink devices provide wireless
battery monitoring for high current BatteryPlus35 and J35 systems.
The addition of the BC300 External Shunt and CommLink to BP35 and
J35 systems allows high current loads to be directly connected to the
battery via the BC300 External Shunt. This enhances the system behavior
with temperature monitoring of the battery for greater protection. It also
maintains Time Remaining and State of Charge determination of the battery
even at high currents and with directly connected loads.
The BC300 External Shunt is designed for 12V batteries up to 800Ah in
capacity. The shunt is rated for ±240A of continuous current and transmits
monitored data wirelessly.
The BC300 External Shunt monitors the following battery properties:
9 Voltage
9 Charging/discharging current
9 Energy usage (Ah)
9 Temperature
Note: when installing the BC300 External Shunt a direct connection to the
battery is required.
The CommLink provides wireless reception of the battery data transmitted
by the BC300 External Shunt. Data received by the CommLink is forwarded
to the CAN communication bus for reception by a BatteryPlus35 or J35. The
CAN communication bus also provides operating power for the CommLink.
The CAN communication bus can also be used to connect to a BMPRO
Battery Monitor, such as the BMPRO Odyssey or Trek3.
