It disconnects the load before the battery reaches a critically low voltage, protecting battery life in off-grid, marine, vehicle and backup power installations. At 65A continuous current capacity, it suits a wide range of DC loads.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with both 12V and 24V battery systems, with automatic voltage detection.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e65A continuous current rating, suitable for substantial DC load circuits.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eProgrammable disconnect and reconnect voltage thresholds to suit different battery chemistries and system requirements.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLow self-consumption, minimising parasitic drain on the battery when the system is idle.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact and lightweight at 205g, making it straightforward to install in confined spaces such as caravans, boats and battery enclosures.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAlarm output available to signal low battery conditions to external devices or monitoring systems.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIgnition input allows the unit to be overridden when the engine or ignition is active, preventing nuisance disconnections.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eProduct Overview\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe BatteryProtect monitors battery voltage continuously and disconnects the connected load when voltage drops to the programmed threshold. This prevents the battery from being discharged beyond its safe limit, which is a common cause of premature battery failure in systems where loads are left connected without active charge management. Once the battery voltage recovers to the reconnect threshold, the BatteryProtect automatically restores the load connection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe unit supports multiple pre-set voltage profiles selectable via a push button, covering standard lead-acid, AGM and lithium battery types across both 12V and 24V systems. The alarm output can drive an LED or signal a battery management system, giving the installer flexibility in how low-voltage warnings are communicated. The ignition input is particularly useful in vehicle and marine applications where the load should remain connected whenever the engine is running, regardless of battery voltage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAt 65A, this model handles most auxiliary load circuits. For higher current applications, Victron offers the BatteryProtect range up to 220A. The device is not suitable for use with inductive loads such as motors or compressors unless a suitable protection diode is fitted, as back-EMF can damage the internal MOSFET switching circuit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"border: 2px solid #f87c24; border-collapse: collapse; width: 100%;\"\u003e\n  \u003cthead\u003e\n    \u003ctr style=\"background-color: #f87c24; color: #ffffff;\"\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eParameter\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eValue\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003c\/thead\u003e\n  \u003ctbody\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003eSKU\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003eBPR000065400\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003eVoltage Compatibility\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003e12V \/ 24V (automatic detection)\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003eContinuous Current Rating\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003e65A\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003e205g\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003eGTIN\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003e8719076034193\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eApplications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eProtecting auxiliary battery banks in campervans, motorhomes and caravans from deep discharge.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMarine DC load protection on 12V and 24V vessel electrical systems.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOff-grid solar systems where battery protection is required on the load output.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBackup power installations to prevent battery damage during extended discharge periods.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eVehicle auxiliary circuits where loads must be isolated when the battery voltage drops below a safe level.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eWhat Is Included\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1x Victron BatteryProtect 12\/24V-65A unit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe BatteryProtect should be installed by a competent electrician or qualified installer familiar with DC battery systems. It must be wired in series with the load circuit, not between the battery and charger. Do not use this device on the charge input side of a battery. The unit is not rated for inductive loads (motors, compressors, solenoids) without appropriate back-EMF protection. Ensure the wiring and fusing are rated to at least the continuous current of the circuit. Refer to the voltage profile settings carefully to match the disconnect and reconnect thresholds to your battery chemistry.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Victron Energy","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47486562009422,"sku":"BPR000065400","price":26.75,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0796\/3698\/8238\/files\/victron-batteryprotect-1224v-65a-bpr000065400-621262.jpg?v=1747941686","url":"https:\/\/voltaconsolar.com\/products\/victron-batteryprotect-12-24v-65a","provider":"VoltaconSolar","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
