The Victron Temperature Sensor is an optional accessory for the BlueSolar PWM-Pro charge controller. When connected, it enables temperature compensation, which adjusts the battery charging voltage based on temperature to protect and preserve battery life. The sensor fits easily and works reliably in a range of environmental conditions.

Key features

• Enables temperature compensation for the BlueSolar PWM-Pro controller
• Helps maintain proper charge voltage as battery temperature changes
• Improves battery performance and lifespan
• Small, robust sensor suitable for outdoor use with PWM-Pro systems
• Simple to install; plug-in connection to temperature input on charge controller

Technical Specifications

• Designed for use with BlueSolar PWM-Pro series
• Adjusts charging voltage: approx −30 mV/°C per cell in 12V systems, −60 mV/°C in 24V when sensor fitted
• Operates reliably over standard PWM-Pro temperature ranges
• High durability; built for continued use in solar installations

Applications

• Solar off-grid battery systems using BlueSolar PWM-Pro controllers
• Marine and RV solar battery set-ups where ambient or battery temperature varies
• Outdoor solar installations exposed to sunshine, high ambient temperatures or cold nights
• Any system where maintaining correct charge voltage with temperature changes improves battery battery health
