Victron Energy Venus GX

Central communication unit for intuitive control and monitoring of all components of Victron energy systems.

Venus GX is the heart of any modern energy system, connecting and managing an endless array of Victron devices including inverters, converters, MPPT controllers, BMV battery monitors and many more. The device provides a complete overview of the system status via the Remote Console and the free VRM Online portal .

As an Energy Manager in ESS systems (Energy Storage System), Venus GX optimizes the flow of energy between solar panels, batteries and the grid. The advanced automatic generator start system can be customized according to the state of charge, voltage, load and other parameters, including special rules for quiet hours.

Advanced data services
Venus GX automatically sends all data to the VRM portal when connected to the internet. In the event of a connection failure, it stores data internally for up to 48 hours . Using a microSD card or USB, the capacity can be expanded and the data can be uploaded or analyzed later in the VictronConnect app.

Flexible internet connection
The unit connects to the Internet via Ethernet cable or Wi-Fi . For mobile applications, an external GPRS or 3G router can be used, as the Venus GX does not have an integrated cellular modem.

Position and tank monitoring
A GPS module can be connected to the USB port for tracking the position on the VRM portal map. Three analog inputs allow the connection of resistive sensors.tank gauges with configuration for European or American standards.
