Victron Accessories

Wi-Fi dongle to connect Colour Control to WEP, WPA and WPA2 secured networks where running a network cable to router or access point is unsuitable. There are four supported USB Wi-Fi dongles. Two of them are also available from stock at Victron Energy

(Although other Wi-Fi dongles may work, they have not been tested and are not supported).

Current transformer for the MultiPlus-II to implement PowerControl and PowerAssist optimising self-consumption with external current sensing.

Used for instance to connect engine starter and service batteries to allow charge from the same alternator, whilst prioritising charge to the starter battery.

These microprocessor controlled heavy duty relays that automatically connects batteries in parallel when one of them has reached a pre-set voltage (indicating that the battery is being charged), and disconnects when the voltage decreases below float level (indicating that one or more batteries are being discharged). Cyrix Battery Combiners are an excellent replacement for diode isolators. The main feature is that there is virtually no voltage loss so that the output voltage of alternators or battery chargers does not need to be increased.

Versions for use with lead acid or lithium batteries and different current ratings for 12 or 24 V systems.
The Cyrix-Li-ct will parallel connect a lead acid starter battery and a LiFePO4 battery.

The Cyrix-Li-Charge will connect a battery charger with 3 seconds delay: – if the Charge Disconnect output of the VE.Bus BMS is high, and – if it senses 13,7V (resp. 27,4V or 54,8V) or more on its battery charger connection terminal, and – if it senses 2V or more on its battery terminal (the Cyrix will remain open, if not connect to the battery).

The Cyrix-Li-Charge will disengage immediately whenever its control input becomes free floating, signalling cell over voltage or cell over temperature.

In general a cell over voltage alarm will reset shortly after charging has been stopped. The Cyrix will then reconnect the charger after a delay of 3 seconds. After two attempts to reengage with 3 seconds delay, the delay increases to 10 minutes.

Whenever battery voltage is less than 13,5V (resp. 27V or 54V), the Cyrix will disengage with a delay of 1 hour. Note 1: In case of zero discharge current, or a small discharge current, the Cyrix will not disengage shortly after the charger has been switched off and/or disconnected, because battery voltage will remain higher than 13,5V. Note 2: If, after the Cyrix has disengaged, the output of the battery charger immediately increases to 13,7V or more, the Cyrix will re-engage, with 3 seconds delay

The Cyrix-Li-load will disengage when its control input becomes free floating. If the battery voltage recovers after disconnection (which will happen when no other loads are connected to the battery), the output of the BMS will become high and the Cyrix will reengage after 30 seconds. After 3 attempts to reengage, the Cyrix will remain disengaged until battery voltage has increased to more than 13 V (resp. 26 V or 52 V) during at least 30 seconds (which is a sign that the battery is being recharged). 

These are used to guarantee continuous DC power to mission critical equipment, such as an electronic engine control system. With a diode battery combiner two or more DC power sources can be used in parallel to supply the mission critical load. Failure of one source will not interrupt power to the critical load.

They feature a low voltage drop thanks to the use of Schottky diodes: at low current the voltage drop is approximately 0,3 V and at the rated output approximately 0,45 V.

The Victron Filaxis used to switch sensitive loads, such as computers or entertainment equipment from one AC source to another enabling sensitive loads to continue to operate without disruption The priority source typically is the mains, a generator or shore power. The alternate source typically is an inverter.

Used to equalize the state of charge of two series connected 12V batteries, or of several parallel strings of series connected batteries. 

When the charge voltage of a 24V battery system increases to more than 27,3V, the Battery Balancer will turn on and compare the voltage over the two series connected batteries. The Battery Balancer will draw a current of up to 0,7A from the battery (or parallel connected batteries) with the highest voltage. The resulting charge current differential will ensure that all batteries will converge to the same state of charge.
If needed, several balancers can be paralleled.
A 48V battery bank can be balanced with three Battery Balancers.
