The Victron SmartShunt 1000A IP65 combines high-current capacity with a sealed enclosure — sized for 24V and 48V systems with big inverters, in a dust-tight enclosure rated against water spray. Same Victron measurement firmware as the smaller SmartShunts; same 1000A capacity as the standard IP21 version; sealed for marine engine rooms, outdoor solar combiner boxes, and any install where standard electronics can't safely live.

No display — your phone is the screen via Bluetooth and the free VictronConnect app. View real-time state-of-charge, voltage, current, power, time-remaining, and 30 days of historical trend data.

IP65 vs standard SmartShunt 1000A — which one?

IP65 (this model) Standard IP21
SKU SHU065210050 SHU050210050
Enclosure rating IP65 (dust-tight, water spray) IP21 (indoor / dry mounting)
Marine engine room Yes — recommended Not recommended
Outdoor / unsealed install Yes No
Indoor / cabin mounting Works fine but overkill Recommended
Current capacity ±1000A ±1000A
Measurement accuracy ±0.4% ±0.4%
Price $165.75 $165.75

For the 1000A model, Victron prices IP65 and IP21 the same. If you have any doubt about the install environment, choose IP65 — there's no cost penalty.

When to choose the 1000A IP65

  • Marine 24V or 48V systems — engine room mounting where humidity, salt, and occasional water exposure are unavoidable
  • Outdoor ground-mount solar — combiner boxes that aren't always fully sealed; the shunt itself is weather-rated
  • Off-grid cabin pump houses — well pumps, irrigation, exterior generator/inverter rooms
  • Commercial mobile platforms — surveillance trailers, food trucks with exterior battery compartments
  • Industrial / telecom outdoor cabinets — sealed against environmental dust and spray

Why the SmartShunt 1000A IP65

  • IP65 sealed enclosure — dust-tight and rated against low-pressure water spray from any direction.
  • 2× the current capacity of the 500A — sized for larger 24V/48V systems.
  • Same accuracy as the standard 1000A — same Victron precision shunt and same firmware, just sealed.
  • Bluetooth built-in — pair directly with VictronConnect on iPhone or Android.
  • True state-of-charge — counts every amp in and out for fuel-gauge accuracy on lithium, AGM, and lead-acid banks.
  • VE.Direct port for Cerbo GX — plug into a Cerbo GX for full system integration and VRM Portal remote monitoring.
  • VE.Smart Networking — shares battery data wirelessly with other Victron devices to coordinate charging.
  • Programmable auxiliary input — temperature, midpoint voltage, or second battery monitoring.
