Bussmann RB-BS-1314 Battery Separator for Multi-Battery Electrical System, 100A

Uni-directional 100A battery separator. Manages multi-battery electrical systems to ensure greater reliability for main battery engine starting, provides a solenoid priority system for multi-battery electrical systems. When main battery is low, will utilize auxiliary battery power to assist in vehicle starting. Unit disconnects main & auxiliary batteries from 1 another to protect them from excessive drain. Time delay function prevents battery separator from reacting to temporary vague fluctuations. Uni-directional 100A battery separatorFor vehicles and boats with main and auxiliary battery systems and alternator outputs up to 100 amps — or on systems incompatible with battery isolatorsBattery separators from Sure Power actively manage multi-battery electrical systems to ensure greater reliability for main battery engine startingBattery separators provide a solenoid priority system for multi-battery systems When main battery is low, the separator will utilize auxiliary battery power to assist in vehicle startingSeparators disconnect main and auxiliary batteries from one another to protect them from excessive drainTime-delay function prevents battery separator from reacting to temporary voltage fluctuationsMulti-battery systems: Many vehicles and boats have accessories and other electrical loads, such as lights, entertainment systems and communications equipment that draw power when the engine is off. When applied to a single battery electrical system, main batteries can become drained and present an engine “no-start” condition. Adding an auxiliary battery to operate these additional loads helps avoid this, but it needs more than simply being wired into the electrical system — the auxiliary battery needs to be separatedPriority charging:The battery separator waits until the main battery’s active charging source reaches approximately 13.2 volts before it begins charging the auxiliary battery. The uni-directional battery separator RB-BS-1314 will only charge the auxiliary battery when the main battery reaches 13.2 volts. The bi-directional battery separatorRB-BS-1315 will engage both main and auxiliary batteries and disconnect at approximately 12.8 voltsCharging system protection:Once the engine starts, the battery separator monitors the main battery and charging system voltage. When the charging system reaches 13.2 volts, the battery separator will engage, signaling a charged main battery. The auxiliary battery is then connected to the vehicle charging system. When the charging system reaches 12.8 volts, the battery separator will disconnect the auxiliary battery to protect the vehicle’s charging system. This process of managing the battery charging is repeated until the engine is turned offSimple installation:The battery separators work with any 12 volt DC, negative ground charging system up to 100 amps. They easily connect to the main battery, auxiliary battery and ground. No system modifications are necessaryOptional engine start assist:When the engine starter is engaged, the battery separator will compare the voltage in both main and auxiliary batteries. If the main battery is lower than the auxiliary battery, the battery separator will engage the auxiliary battery to aid in engine start. The start signal must reach 3 volts in order for the auxiliary to mail battery connection procedure to begin.
