Smart BatteryProtect 12/24V
Installation
1. The Smart BatteryProtect (SBP) must be installed in a well-ventilated area and preferably close (max 50 cm) to the
battery (but, due to possible corrosive gasses not above the battery!). Voltage drop over a long or undersized cable
between the battery plus and the SBP may result in a short circuit alarm when starting-up the load, or unexpected
shutdown.
2. A properly sized fuse must be inserted according to local regulations in the cable between the battery and the SBP.
3. The SBP is designed to allow current to flow from IN (battery) to OUT (load) terminals only.
Reverse currents from OUT to IN terminals are strictly forbidden, and will
damage the device. If you wish to use the SBP as a disconnection for a
charge source, you must orient the unit in the system so that the current is
flowing in the intended direction, IN to OUT.
4. The short circuit protection of the SBP will be activated if you try to
directly connect loads with capacitors on their input (eg inverters). For that
use case, please use the SBP to control the remote on/off switch on the
inverter, instead of disconnecting the higher power DC line.
5. Use a 1,5mm² wire (included) for the minus connection, which should be
connected directly to the battery minus (or the chassis of a vehicle). No
other equipment should be connected to this wire.
6. The SBP automatically detects the system voltage one time only after
connection of plus and minus to the battery. The selected voltage (12 or 24V) is stored, and further automatic detection is
disabled. See in the programming table for how to reset it when re-using the SBP in a different installation or use
Bluetooth.
7. Do not connect the load output until the SBP has been fully programmed.
8. A remote on-off switch can be connected between Remote H and Remote L (see figure 1).
Alternatively, terminal H can be switched to battery plus, or terminal L can be switched to battery minus.
9. A buzzer, LED or relay can be connected between the alarm output and the battery plus (see figure 1). Maximum load
on the alarm output: 50 mA (short circuit proof).
Load disconnect events and alarm output options
Buzzer or LED mode (buzzer or LED connected to the alarm output):
• In case of under voltage, a continuous alarm will start after 12 seconds. The SBP will disconnect the load after 90
seconds and the alarm will stop. Reconnect delay: 30 seconds.
• In case of over voltage, the load will be disconnected immediately and an intermittent alarm will remain on until
the overvoltage problem has been corrected. There is no reconnect delay.
Relay mode (relay connected to the alarm output):
• In case of under voltage, the relay will engage after 12 seconds. The SBP will disconnect the load after 90 seconds
and the relay will disengage.
• In case of over voltage, the load will be disconnected immediately and the alarm output will remain inactive.
Overvoltage trip levels: 16V respectively 32V
Li-ion mode:
• Connect the load disconnect output of the VE.Bus BMS to Remote H terminal.
The load is disconnected immediately when the load-disconnect output of the VE.Bus BMS switches from 'high' to
'free floating' (due to battery cell under voltage, over voltage or over temperature). The under voltage thresholds
and alarm output of the SBP are inactive in this mode.
Operation
There are 6 possible error modes, indicated by the 7 segment display and on a Bluetooth enabled device:
• Short circuit detected
• Over load or over temperature / P2 over temperature warning
• Under voltage / P3 under voltage warning
• Over voltage
• Settings Failure
• Reference Voltage Failure
• BMS Lockout
After 5 minutes the error is no longer displayed to reduce current consumption.
The decimal point of the 7 segment display is used for status indication:
• On solid: the SBP attempts to activate the output
• Flash every 5s: output is active
• Flashing every 2s in Li-ion mode: output 'connecting'
Remote control and short circuit
• The SBP will connect the load 1 second after closing the remote contact.
• The SBP will disconnect the load immediately when the remote contact is opened.
• When in Li-ion mode the SBP will observe a dead period of 30 seconds after the remote input of the SBP has
become free floating. See the note under figure 4 for a detailed description.
• In case of a short circuit, the SBP will attempt to connect the load every 5 seconds. After two attempts the display
will show (short circuit detected).
Programming
When switched off (remote open), the SBP can be programmed by connecting the PROG pin to ground. Alternatively, it
can be programmed with a Bluetooth enabled smartphone or tablet regardless of the remote status.
The 7-segment display will first step through the shutdown and restart voltages. Disconnect the PROG pin when the
desired voltage is displayed.
The display will confirm the chosen voltage and default mode () twice.
Reconnect the PROG pin to ground if another mode (
displayed.
The display will confirm the chosen voltage and mode twice.
Bluetooth can be disabled/re-enabled with the VictronConnect app or by connecting the PROG pin to ground and
selecting (enable) or (disable). See table below
