Victron Shunt 6000A/50mV – high-current measuring shunt

Victron Energy Shunt 6000A/50mV is a high-current measuring shunt for precise current measurement in powerful DC systems. Model SHU602050200 is designed for currents up to 6000 A and provides a nominal 50 mV voltage drop, which is measured by a compatible battery monitor.

The shunt is installed in series with the current path and allows the monitoring system to calculate charging and discharging current. Its heavy-duty construction and M10 terminals make it suitable for large battery banks and high-current DC installations where lower-rated shunts are not sufficient.

Key benefits

• Up to 6000 A nominal current rating for high-current DC systems.
• Calibrated 50 mV voltage drop for accurate current measurement.
• M10 current terminals for reliable connection in powerful installations.
• Suitable for use with compatible Victron Energy battery monitors, including BMV systems.
• Enables measurement of both charging and discharging current.
• Heavy-duty design for large stationary, marine and professional DC systems.

Applications

Victron Energy Shunt 6000A/50mV is intended for large battery banks, high-power off-grid energy systems, industrial DC installations, marine electrical systems and professional applications requiring very high current measurement through an external shunt. It is used together with a compatible battery monitor, which measures the voltage drop across the shunt.
