1. Introduction
Simarine's high precision SCX03 (SC303 & SC503) active digital shunt measures
voltage, current, and temperature of the battery or battery bank.
It can be used for monitoring current draw of heavy consumers (inverters, bow
and stern thrusters, anchor winches) and current generators (shore power
chargers and solar panels). Additionally, it allows monitoring tanks for fuel, fresh
and gray water.
·
Innovative combination of shunt and tank level module. SC303 is an active
combo shunt for PICO battery monitor with 2 voltages, 2 tank levels or
temperature, 1 socket for temperature sensor with JST connector and 1 current
sensor up to 300A for up to 75V systems. It can be used for monitoring current
draw of heavy consumers (inverters, bow and stern thrusters, anchor winches)
and current generators (shore power chargers and solar panels). Additionally, it
allows monitoring tanks for fuel, fresh and gray water. SC303 is capable of
measuring continuous current up to 300A and suitable for maximal power of
3600W at 12V or 7200W at 24V.
·
Innovative combination of shunt and tank level module. SC503 is a high
precision combo shunt for PICO battery monitor with 2 voltage, 2 temperature,
1 socket for temperature sensor with JST connector and 1 current sensor up to
500A for up to 75V systems. SC505 is capable of measuring continuous current
up to 500A and suitable for maximal power of 6000W at 12V or 12000W at
24V.
2. Safety
Only qualified electricians with proper safety equipment should make installation
of Simarine electronics. When working with batteries, you should wear protective
clothing and eye protection.
CAUTION: Batteries contain acid, a corrosive, colorless liquid that can burn your
eyes, skin, and clothing. If the acid comes into contact with eyes or skin, wash out
with lukewarm water and immediately seek medical support.
CAUTION: Do NOT connect anything to a damaged battery. It could heat up,
catch fire, or explode.
CAUTION: Lead-acid batteries can generate explosive gases during operation.
Never smoke, allow flames, or sparks near the battery. Make sure to keep
sufficient ventilation around the battery.
