Victron Shunt 500A/50mV – precision DC current shunt

Victron Energy Shunt 500A/50mV is a precision current shunt for measuring DC current in high-power battery and electrical systems. Model SHU500050100 is rated for currents up to 500 A and provides a standard 50 mV measuring voltage drop for use with a compatible battery monitor or measuring module.

The shunt is installed in series with the DC circuit, normally on the battery negative side. It enables the connected monitoring equipment to measure charge and discharge current and is suitable as a replacement shunt for compatible Victron BMV systems. This product is the shunt only; the electronic PCB, display and battery monitor are not included.

Key benefits

• Rated for currents up to 500 A.
• Standard 50 mV measuring voltage drop.
• M10 power terminals for secure connection to high-current cables.
• Suitable for compatible Victron BMV battery-monitoring systems.
• Passive measuring component without an integrated display, Bluetooth or standalone electronics.
• Compact format for installation where space is limited.

Applications

Victron Energy Shunt 500A/50mV is suitable for high-current DC installations in campervans and caravans, marine electrical systems, professional vehicles, off-grid solar systems and stationary energy-storage systems when used with a compatible measuring module.
