Argo Diode battery isolators allow simultaneous charging of two separate batteries from a single alternator without interconnecting them. This ensures the starter battery remains charged, even if the accessory bank is depleted. Utilizing high-efficiency Schottky diodes, voltage drop is kept to a minimum: 0.3V at low current and 0.45V at full output.
Key Features:
Compensation Diode: Includes a compensation terminal to slightly boost alternator voltage, fully offsetting the diode voltage drop.
Alternator ‘Energize’ (AC): Modern alternators often require voltage on the B+ terminal to start charging. The 'AC' models feature a current-limited input that energizes the alternator via the ignition switch.
Heavy-Duty Design: Equipped with M8 bolts to ensure secure electrical connections for currents up to 120A.
