Votronic 1263 LCD Battery Computer 100 S Smart Shunt

The Votronic 1263 LCD Battery Computer informs you at the push of a button comprehensively about the condition of your battery.

Extensive display functions, very accurate measurement data thanks to smart shunt.

• Suitable for all battery types.

The Votronic 1263 LCD Battery Computer 100 S has a significantly more accurate measuring shunt compared to its predecessor. The new smart measuring shunt is included in the scope of delivery. In addition to the higher accuracy, the power consumption has been further reduced. The functional scope, dimensions, etc. are identical to the predecessor model.

Microprocessor-controlled, the following values are measured, calculated and displayed

Battery voltage on-board battery 7 to 32 V (volts). Internal measurement resolution 0.1 V.

Allows conclusions about battery behaviour under different loads and serves for function control, e.g. of the charger, solar system, alternator, etc. Flashing warning display in case of overvoltage.

Battery current (charge/discharge) +/- 0 to max. +/- 1800 A, internal measurement resolution 0.1 A.

Control of discharge currents (load) by consumers, indicated by a "–" sign, control of charging currents, marked by a "Charge" sign.

• Battery capacity (Ah and %).

Remaining charge from 0 Ah / 0% (empty) to nominal capacity max. 2000 Ah / 100% (full).

Battery voltage 2nd battery (e.g. starter battery), 7 to 32 V (volts), internal measurement resolution 0.1 V.

Switching output freely programmable and keyable (PNP, positive potential 12V / 24V, max. 0.5A).

• Including remaining time display.

How much remaining charge does my on-board battery actually have? Is the battery really full? Why is energy being drawn from the battery even though consumers are switched off? The VOTRONIC LCD Battery Computer S answers these questions to the percent (%) and ampere-hour (Ah) exactly. Building on the proven VOTRONIC LCD Battery Computer, the LCD Battery Computer S was developed. The versatile, easy-to-use display functions have been extended by a white illuminated, clear LCD display, which is very easy to read even from a great distance and in poor lighting conditions.

The device is constantly in contact with "its battery" and thus registers and evaluates all battery actions. All charging and discharging currents are meticulously counted, battery size, self-discharge, battery load, etc. are taken into account based on programmed characteristic curves. From the measured values and the battery size, the remaining capacity of the battery is then calculated. The result is the correct display of the state of charge (the remaining capacity, remaining charge) of the on-board battery as a numerical value in ampere-hours ("Ah") and in percent ("%") as well as a clear fill level bar, like a fuel gauge. The LCD Battery Computer S is suitable for all battery types (acid, gel, AGM, lithium adjustable) with 12V and 24V battery voltage.

Of course, the current battery voltage ("V") and the current battery current ("A") are also available in the display. Independently of this, there is another display option for the voltage of a second battery, e.g. for monitoring the starter battery of the vehicle.

The LCD Battery Computer S has a freely programmable switching output for control, monitoring and warning purposes, e.g. to automatically switch consumers depending on the state of charge of the on-board battery (0-100%) or to output a warning. On and off switching points are freely and independently adjustable in %, which enables any switching functions. In addition, they can be manually overridden at any time by pressing a button.

• Application example: Automatic protection of the battery against harmful deep discharge, consumers are switched off exactly according to the state of charge, e.g. at less than 25% state of charge. At the push of a button, an emergency-on function is possible to continue supplying consumers. The device can thus also be used as a remote-controlled battery main switch (on/off) with deep discharge protection.

A ready-to-connect cable connects the display completely with a robust precision measuring resistor (shunt), which is connected directly to the negative pole of the on-board battery and at which the voltages and currents of the battery are recorded. Here is also the switching output for connecting signal transmitters or powerful switching relays.

Matching the VOTRONIC module system, the device aligns both optically and mechanically (uniform height 85 mm) with the other display modules and the low installation depth of only 22 mm allows mounting almost anywhere.
