Blue Sea Systems SI Series Automatic Charge Relay ACR
Simple solution for charging two battery banks from one alternator and other charging sources such wind generators, solar panels and battery chargers without the voltage drop typical with blocking diodes.
The SI-Series Automatic charge relay senses battery voltage and connects two battery banks when a charging source is detected allowing both battery banks to be charged in parallel. When the charging source stops the battery banks are isolated again avoiding discharging the second battery bank or engine start battery. A separate engine start sensor also isolates the battery banks during engine start avoiding damage to sensitive systems by voltage peaks. Suitable for continuous charging rates of up to 120 Amps for use with high powered alternators. Senses charging on either battery bank and is suitable for both 12v and 24v systems. Remote 4 Mode LED connection gives status information anywhere on board.
