BEP’s innovative Smart Battery Hub (SBH) is a world-first intelligent battery management system for vessels running two or more engines.Â
Â
Smart Battery Hub simplifies battery management with remotely activated switches, automatic Voltage Sensitive Switching (VSS) and emergency parallel functionality, neatly housed in a robust, easy-to-install, ignition-protected IPX7 enclosure.
SBH monitors and transmits individual battery voltages and full house bank state of charge over NMEA2000, for easy integration with multi-function displays. Remote battery switching is operated via NMEA2000 or wired switches, with physical manual override of all battery switches for safety and servicing.
SBH works-with-CZone so that users can control batteries from CZone Waterproof Keypads, monitor them on any CZone touchscreen or any compatible CZone partner device.Â
SBH works seamlessly as a CZone module in networked systems.
VSS voltage thresholds can be configured to suit or enabled/disabled with each installation. Switch inputs can be assigned to any function and can use two additional sensor inputs for monitoring volts, fluid levels and temperature.
BEP’s all-in-one battery monitoring and management system features magnetic latching, 300-amp interrupt switching technology, two additional sensor inputs and true mechanical override. At less than 3.5mA in sleep mode, power consumption has been optimised for an ultra-low draw on the batteries.
BEP’s Smart Battery Hub works with 12- or 24-volt systems and carries a five-year warranty.
