The Vessel Systems Monitor VSM 422 performs comprehensive
monitoring of four boat systems in one compact meter, saving space
and money.
By monitoring DC (including battery state of charge), AC, tanks, and bilge
pump, the VSM 422 alerts boaters to problems before they become
emergencies.
The ability to monitor state of charge is critical to safe boating. By using a
complex calculation of voltage, amperage, and amp-hours remaining, the VSM
422 is able to provide accurate and timely information about state of charge
on the house battery to help boaters know when it's time to recharge. The
VSM 422 also monitors temperature on the primary battery with the included
Battery Temperature Sensor.
AC monitoring includes voltage, amperage, wattage, and frequency. Tank
monitoring for up to three tanks includes alarm functions for high and low
levels, and bilge pump monitoring includes pump active, cycle count,
and duration.
With its user-friendly interface, intuitive display modes, and versatile case
design, the Vessel Systems Monitor VSM 422 is an excellent replacement for
four separate system monitors.
