Victron AC sensor 40A single-phase
Shipped in 1-3 days
The Victron Energy AC sensor (MPN CSE000100000) is a simple external current sensor for max. 40A input current. It is used to measure AC current, power (VA), and to calculate the energy (kWh) of a PV inverter. The sensor is connected to the AC input or output of a Multi or Quattro. The values can then be displayed and sent from the color control to the VRM website or a GX device. The two measuring cables can be connected to the AUX and/or temperature measurement input of a Multi or Quattro.
Multi and Quattro hardware requirements
- The Multi or Quattro must have the new microprocessor: Make sure that the 7-digit firmware version number indicated on the microprocessor begins with 26 or 27.
- The TEMP Sense input on all Multi and Quattro units is suitable for the AC current sensor
- On Multiplus II hardware versions 0 to 8, the AUX input is located on the RJ12 connector, pins 1 and 5. On later versions, the AUX input is available again as a normal connector
- The Multi or Quattro must be connected to the VE.Bus port of the Color Control GX: The display will not work if the VE.Can port is connected via a VE.Bus to VE.Can interface cable.
Installation
- Pull one of the AC cables from the PV inverter through the AC sensor
- Connect the sensor to the AUX or TEMP sensor input of an inverter, Multi, or Quattro in the same phase in which it is measured by this current sensor
- Configure the power range using the DIP switches. Select a power rating that is equal to or higher than the maximum expected power. For a 4 kW PV installation, the correct DIP switch setting would be 5 kW, for example.
- Multi-phase installations: Add an AC current sensor for each phase of the PV inverter. Wire it in the same phase as the Multi.
