Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

A new review or comment

Interface for Victron Energy VE.Can Fuel Level Sensor (BPP900600100) — is a specialized converter that allows integrating analog liquid level sensors (fuel, fresh water, grey water) into the VE.Can digital network. With its help, data from standard 0-180 Ohm resistive floats is broadcast to Victron communication displays (e.g., Cerbo GX, Color Control GX) and to the global VRM monitoring system.

Advantages of the VE.Can Tank Interface

Converts analog values from standard resistive sensors (0-180 Ohm) to the VE.Can digital protocol (NMEA 2000 compatible).
Provides accurate liquid level display on GX panels in percentages or liters.
Allows remotely monitoring fuel or water supplies via the Victron Remote Management (VRM) portal.
Suitable for any types of tanks: fuel tanks, drinking water tanks, black/grey water cisterns.
Easily scalable: multiple such adapters can be connected to a single VE.Can network to monitor different tanks on a boat or in a motorhome.

Technical Specifications

Applications

Comprehensive automation of motor and sailing yachts (Glass Bridge).
Expedition motorhomes and campers requiring precise tracking of fresh water supplies.
Industrial diesel power plants integrated into the Victron monitoring system to control the fuel level in the backup tank.

Compatible Equipment

Any GX family communication centers: Cerbo GX, Ekrano GX, Venus GX, Color Control GX (if a free VE.Can port is available).

What is the function of the BPP900600100 adapter?
This device serves as a bridge between classic analog (resistive) floats in tanks and the VE.Can digital network. It digitizes liquid level data and transmits it to the screen of a GX device or to VRM.

What resistance sensors can it work with?
The device is compatible with the vast majority of standards: 240-33 Ohm, 0-180 Ohm, 10-180 Ohm, and others. Basically, these are standard automotive or marine floats.

How to program it for a specific tank?
All setup is intuitive and performed from the screen of the Cerbo GX (or equivalent): you specify the tank volume, empty/full tank resistance, and fluid type.

Is it possible to monitor several tanks at once?
Of course! A lot of such adapters can be integrated into one Victron system, assigning each its own reservoir (fuel, drinking water, wastewater, etc.).

Do I need to run a separate 12V power wire to it?
In most cases, the device receives energy directly from the VE.Can cable. But if the network is overloaded, you can connect external 12–24 V power to a dedicated connector.

Is a computer required to update the firmware?
No, the adapter is updated automatically or on request via the menu of the main Victron system controller.

Can I check the fuel supply while in another country?
Yes, thanks to the Victron VRM cloud platform, you will be able to monitor the level in the tanks from anywhere in the world.

Is the margin of error large for such measurements?
The accuracy depends only on the quality of the mechanical float in the tank itself. As a rule, for household needs, an error within 5-10% is the norm.

What if the tank has the shape of a trapezoid or a truncated cone?
For such cases, in the GX settings, there is an option to set a non-linear tank shape (custom shape), specifying the fill percentage for different sensor readings.
