The Victron Cable f/Smart BMS CL 12-100 to MultiPlus is a model-aware wiring solution that lets Smart BMS CL 12-100 or smaller BMS units directly control a range of Victron MultiPlus inverters/chargers, even when VE.Bus isn’t present. It’s designed for installers and off-grid systems that demand dependable remote on/off control across multiple MultiPlus configurations.
-
Compatibility across Victron MultiPlus configurations: Works with MultiPlus 500VA–1600VA, MultiPlus Compact 800VA–2kVA, and MultiPlus-II, including setups that don’t use VE.Bus.
-
Remote on/off control via BMS: Enables turning MultiPlus models on or off through the BMS outputs (Load/Disconnect on the Smart BMS CL 12-100 or Load/Charger on the small BMS).
-
Model-specific wiring guidance: Provides exact wiring instructions per model—ensuring correct connections and safer installation (e.g., 500VA–1200VA: black to ON, red to +; Compact 800VA–2kVA: black to middle, red to IN; MultiPlus-II: black to -, red to + remote terminal).
-
Clear signaling requirements for operation: The Load/Charge/Disconnect outputs must be in the High state for the MultiPlus to operate reliably.
-
Reset guidance for safe recovery: If shutdown occurs due to low battery voltage, run the alternator or a battery charger on the BMS primary to reset; the MultiPlus will then switch on if connected to AC power.
-
Purpose-built reliability and ease of installation: Victron Energy designed this cable to work across multiple configurations with straightforward, model-aware installation and explicit guidance.
-
Key specifications: Manufacturer: Victron Energy; Part No: ASS070200100; UPC: 8719076051183.
The cable provides a reliable, model-aware connection that simplifies integrating BMS-based remote control with Victron MultiPlus inverters/chargers. By laying out exact wiring and high-state requirements, it helps ensure predictable behavior in battery systems and speeds up setup for safer, automated battery charging and load management.
