Victron Energy Battery Monitor BMV-700H - BAM010700100

The Victron Energy BMV-700H High Voltage Battery Monitor, manufacturer part number BAM010700100, is a precision battery monitoring system designed for high-voltage DC battery banks. With a supported supply voltage range of 60–385V DC, it provides detailed information about battery voltage, current, power consumption, ampere-hours consumed, state of charge, and estimated remaining operating time.

The BMV-700H is designed for applications where accurate battery information is essential for energy management, operational planning, and battery protection. Its advanced monitoring algorithms estimate remaining battery capacity by accounting for consumed ampere-hours and discharge conditions, helping users understand how much stored energy remains available.

Unlike conventional battery voltage meters, the BMV-700H measures current flowing into and out of the battery bank using a precision shunt. This allows the monitor to track battery usage and calculate state of charge, providing more meaningful information than voltage readings alone.

Important: The BMV-700H is specifically designed for 60–385V DC systems with a grounded negative. It is not electrically isolated from the current shunt and must not be used in incompatible floating or differently grounded high-voltage battery systems. It is a monitoring device, not a battery charger, inverter, battery management system, or protective disconnect.
