Product Specifications
Electrical Specifications
- Continuous Current Rating: 6000 A
- Rated Output: 50 mV @ 6000 A
- Accuracy: Class 0.5 (±0.5%)
- Resistance: 8.33 µΩ (0.00000833 Ω)
- Full-Scale Voltage Drop: 50 mV
Power Dissipation & Heat Management: At high currents, the shunt generates substantial heat and must be installed in an area with adequate airflow.
- Power Dissipation at 1000A: 8.3 W
- Power Dissipation at 3000A: 75 W
- Power Dissipation at 6000A: 300 W
Mechanical Specifications
- Dimensions (L x W x H): 168 × 110 × 48.6 mm
- Weight: Approximately 5.1 kg
- Main Terminals: 5 × M10 heavy-current connection points
- Sense Terminals: 2 × M4 screws
- Hardware Included: Six M10 × 70 mm studs
- Mounting: Four additional M10 × 15 mm threaded mounting holes
- Construction: Precision manganin resistive element with heavy solid copper terminal blocks
Key Features
- 5×M10 Terminal Design: Features multiple heavy-duty connection points to support parallel battery cables and direct busbar mounting, which reduces connection resistance and cable stacking.
- Precision Calibration: Factory laser-trimmed to ensure Class 0.5 accuracy for critical battery management.
- Low Voltage Loss: The extremely low resistance of 8.33 µΩ minimizes power loss even when carrying thousands of amps.
Compatibility & Equipment
- Compatible Monitors: Designed for use with Victron battery monitors that support external 50 mV shunts, such as the BMV-700, BMV-702, and BMV-712 Smart.
- Important Note: This is supplied as a bare precision shunt. The monitoring electronics or connection PCB are not included and must be transferred from a standard BMV shunt if being used as an upgrade.
Typical Applications
- Utility-scale battery energy storage systems (BESS)
- Grid-support and large-scale off-grid power installations
- Large marine propulsion systems
- Mining and heavy industrial DC distribution
- Data centre and telecom DC power plants
