Battery Monitor BMV -712 BMV-712 Smart
The Victron Energy BMV-712 Smart Battery Monitor is a sophisticated and highly accurate monitoring solution designed for the Internet of Things (IoT) era. With built-in Bluetooth capabilities, it offers seamless connectivity, allowing users to customize settings, monitor essential data, view historical information, and update software using the Victron Bluetooth app on a smartphone or other Bluetooth-enabled device.
Installation is made easy with a quick-connect PCB on the current shunt, and the package includes an RJ12 cable and battery cable with fuse. Additional accessories, such as a separate front bezel for various display appearances, a securing ring for rear mounting, and screws for front mounting, are also included.
The BMV-712 Smart features midpoint voltage monitoring, providing a timely warning in case of potential issues with series-connected batteries. For optimal service life of lead-acid batteries, it is recommended to use the Battery Balancer (BMS012201000).
With very low current draw from the battery, this monitor is especially suitable for Li-ion batteries, preventing damage after low voltage shutdown. The bi-stable alarm relay further enhances battery protection by preventing increased current draw in alarm conditions.
Backed by a 5-year warranty, the Victron Energy BMV-712 Smart Battery Monitor combines advanced features with user-friendly functionality for efficient and reliable battery management.

Key Features
Bluetooth inside
With Bluetooth built-in, the BMV Smart is ready for the Internet of Things (IoT) era. With Bluetooth being implemented in most other Victron Energy products, wireless communication between products will simplify system installation and enhance performance.
Download the Victron Bluetooth app
Use a smartphone or other Bluetooth enabled device to customize settings, monitor all important data on single screen, view historical data and to update the software when new features become available.
Easy to install
All electrical connections are to the quick connect PCB on the current shunt. The shunt connects to the monitor with a standard RJ12 telephone cable. Included: RJ 12 cable (10 m) and battery cable with fuse (2 m); no other components needed.
Also included are a separate front bezel for a square or round display appearance, a securing ring for rear mounting and screws for front mounting.
Midpoint voltage monitoring
One bad cell or one bad battery can destroy a large, expensive battery bank. When batteries are connected in series, a timely warning can be generated by measuring the midpoint voltage. Please see the BMV manual, section 5.2, for more information.
We recommend the Battery Balancer (BMS012201000) to maximize service life of series-connected lead-acid batteries.
Very low current draw from the battery
Current consumption: 0,7Ah per month (1mA) @12V and 0,6Ah per month (0,8mA) @ 24V Especially Li-ion batteries have virtually no capacity left when discharged until low voltage shutdown. After shutdown due to low cell voltage, the capacity reserve of a Li-ion battery is approximately 1Ah per 100Ah battery capacity. The battery will be damaged if the remaining capacity reserve is drawn from the battery. A residual current of 10mA for example may damage a 200Ah battery if the system is left in discharged state during more than 8 days.
Bi-stable alarm relay
Prevents increased current draw in case of an alarm.
