37 TriMetric Battery System Monitors and Deltec Co. shunts

37 TriMetric Battery System Monitors and Deltec Co. shunts

We stock the Trimetric 2030 RV and the 2030 A amp hour / battery monitor system / meters by

Bogart Engineering.

Also the new Wi-Fi wireless module model WF-2030 WF-2030 Wireless Module

These are an important part of an alternative energy, RV or backup system,

be it Solar, Wind or Hydro as well as generator based systems.

Emergency, recreational vehicle and back up power systems as well as

remote monitoring systems can also benefit from battery condition monitoring.

The TriMetric 2030RV is an updated version of the 2025 RV.

Battery System Monitors

A recording amp hour meter such as the Tri-Metric 2030 RV allows you to

quickly and easily check the state of charge of your battery bank at a glance.

It records the power going into and out of a battery bank which is the most

accurate method of determining the state of charge.

Unlike using voltage or electrolyte specific gravity measurments, the

Trimetric 2030 is not affected by recent charging or discharging of the batteries.

The TriMetric also allows you to check, at any time, to see if power is going

into or out of your batteries.

A battery voltage monitor works well with a system where only voltage

monitoring is needed.

They are simple to install and easy to use.

With the cost of batteries today, monitoring your battery system's

operation can save a great deal of money, not to mention the

inconvenience of a damaged battery bank and a sore back.

Tri-Metric models 2030A and 2030RV Battery Monitor Amp-Hour

Meters are Manufactured by Bogart Engineering.

These amp/watt-hour meters are for 12, 24 or 48 volt battery systems.

It reads volts, amps and amp-hours on an LED display.

Amp-hours can be displayed in actual amp-hour numbers or in % of

battery full.

An LED lights when the battery is charging and flashes when the battery(s)

has been fully charged.

Another LED flashes when the batteries should be recharged, equalized and

during low voltage.

It also records minimum and maximum voltage, days since batteries were last

charged, days since equalized and total lifetime amp-hours withdrawn from the

batteries.

These can also display voltage from a secondary battery bank.

By using four conductor wire the TriMetric can be located a distance away

from the batteries for ease of use.

Using 22 ga. wire the maximum distance is 55 feet.

Using 18 ga. wire the maximum distance is 150 feet.

It can be placed farther away if heavier wire is used.

The display shows system voltage down to 1/10 of a volt.

A shunt is required for operation.

The shunt size a system needs is most often determined by the size of the

inverter and loads you are using.

As a rule, you can pull more amps out of a battery at a time than you can put in.

For a 12 volt system with a 600 watt inverter the 100 amp shunt should be fine.

Using a 12 volt inverter over 600 watts you would need the 500 amp shunt.

For a 24 volt sytem these hold true - you just double the inverter size.

Use the 500 amp shunt for systems with a maximum continuous current of 400

amps with no overloads or 300 amps continuous with up to 5 minute overloads

to 500 amps maximum.

This allows amp readings as low as 0.10 amps.

These are suitable for virtually all systems with moderate or large size inverters.

Use the 100 amp shunt for systems with a maximum current of 75 amps

continuous with no overloads or 50 amps continuous wtih overloads to 100 amps

for 8 seconds maximum.

These are suitable for small systems or for most applications where you want

to measure only alternative energy input and load output current.

This allows amp readings as low as 0.01 amps.

The TriMetric 2025A and 2025RV battery voltage monitors are similiar

to the earlier Tri-Metric 2020's with a few notable exceptions.

First off, they will operate with 12, 24 or 48 volt d.c. battery systems with

no voltage adapter required.

They can compute and display either Amps or Watts.

The 2030RV has its own housing (app. 5-1/4" tall by 3-1/8" wide by 1-5/16" thick)

for surface mounting.

They also have built-in lightning protection.

This is a full battery system monitor like the earlier Tri-Metric 2020 and 2025 but in

addition it will allow you to monitor the voltage of an auxillary battery bank.

These battery monitors can also be connected to the Bogart Engineering SC-2030

photovoltaic charge controller. The TriMetric 2030 can control and customize the

charging parameters of the SC-2030 for maximum efficiency and to obtain a greater

state of charge than the controller can obtain when used independently.

and packages in our website:

Bogart Engineering Product Updates:

http://www.bogartengineering.com/content/issues

They are designed to be easier to operate than the earlier Tri-Metric 2020 and 2025 models.

The TriMetric handles a battery bank of up to 2500 amp hours.

The positive lead to the TriMetric should be protected with a 1 or 2 amp fuse

which is included.

TriMetric mod. 2030A

bogart trimetric 2030a battery system monitor

Please Note:

The current monitors have an off/white face, not the blue that is pictured

here.

Includes an in-line fuse holder and fuses for the positive battery

connection to power up the Trimetric.

Most Trace type Power Centers are set up to accept a TriMetric 2030A monitor.

Dimensions: 4.5" by 4.75".

For flush mounting you would need to cut a hole with the following dimensions:

app. 3-7/8" tall and 2-5/8" wide.

The meter extends approximately 1-1/8" from the back of the face plate.

These also fit in a double gang box.

A Wiremold double gang box or equivalent can be used for

surface mounting.

We no longer carry these as they are readily available at your local

home center.

As we will not stock as many of the 2030A's as the 2030RV's, we will

show our daily inventory of the 2030A model.

Please note, this does NOT include the shunt - the 100 and 500 amp shunts

are sold separately below.

This current version can, with the optional accessories, work with two of the

Bogart SC-2030 charge controllers in parallel.

Wiring harness for TriMetric battery system monitors.

This wiring harness is made up by Bogart Engineering and is available in two

lengths, 35 and 50 foot.

The 22 gauge four conductor cable is plain on one end for connecting to the

captive lugs on the TriMetric.

On the other end, three wires have ring terminals with # 10 holes for connecting to the

shunt.

The fourth wire has an in-line fuse holder, along with two 1 amp fuses, one for the holder and

one spare, and a ring terminal with a 3/8" hole for connecting to the positive terminal of your battery bank.

This harness connects your TriMetric to the main or house battery(s) system.

To monitor the voltage of a second battery(s) such as a starting battery, you need to supply

your own wire for that connection.

Please note - if you always run your batteries down to a low state of charge,

an amp hour meter loses its accuracy.

This is because as batteries are kept at a low state of charge, they

gradually and permantly lose storage capacity.
