The \u003cstrong\u003eSC301 Active Battery Shunt\u003c\/strong\u003e is engineered specifically to expand and integrate with Simarine PICO battery monitoring systems. Designed to measure continuous currents up to 300A, this multi-purpose shunt goes beyond basic current tracking by incorporating two independent voltage inputs and one resistive or temperature sensor input into a single, streamlined module.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhether you are fitting out a touring 4WD, a modern caravan, or a commercial marine vessel, the SC301 reduces wiring complexity by consolidating multiple sensory inputs. Instead of installing separate modules for tank levels, battery temperatures, and auxiliary battery voltages, this active shunt processes these metrics simultaneously and relays the data directly to your primary display via dual SiCOM RJ9 communication ports.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eComprehensive System Monitoring\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe SC301 is suited for tracking both heavy DC consumers and high-output charging sources. In marine and recreational vehicle applications, understanding the real-time current draw of heavy loads is essential for protecting your battery bank from excessive discharge.

The SC301 solves this by acting as an active node; it digitises the analogue measurements right at the source with a 100ms sampling rate and ±0.6% current accuracy, transmitting clean digital data to your monitor. The screw-down sensing terminal block ensures that thin-gauge voltage and resistance wires remain firmly anchored, mitigating the risk of loose connections caused by corrugated roads or rough seas.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlease note that while the voltage sensing inputs can measure circuits up to 75V, the operating power source voltage range for the shunt itself is 6V to 35V, making it directly compatible with 12V and 24V system architectures.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eUpgrade Your Telemetry System\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTake the guesswork out of managing your auxiliary power and fluid levels.
