BatteryProtect 12/24V-100A - Battery protection against deep discharge
BatteryProtect 12/24V-100A is a battery protection device that disconnects non-essential loads before the battery is fully discharged or can no longer crank the engine. It detects 12 or 24 V systems automatically, handles 100 A continuous and 600 A peak, and connects via M8 bolts. It is uni-directional: it handles either load current or charger current, not both.
Main features:
- Battery voltage: 12 V or 24 V, automatic detection
- Continuous and peak current: 100 A at 40 °C, peak 600 A (30 s)
- Disconnect threshold: 10.5 V (12 V) / 21 V (24 V), default
- Over-voltage protection: load disconnected above 16 V (12 V), 32 V (24 V)
- Control and alarm: remote on/off, alarm output, Li-ion mode for VE.Bus BMS
- Design: ignition-proof MOSFET switches, IP67 electronics
The BatteryProtect disconnects the battery from non essential loads before it is completely discharged (which would damage the battery) or before it has insufficient power left to crank the engine.
The BatteryProtect is a uni-directional device. It can only deal with current in one direction, so either current to a load, or current from a charger, but not both currents at the same time. In addition to this, current only can only flow from the Battery terminal to the Load terminal. In case of use with a load, the battery connects to the Battery terminal, and in case of use with a charger, the charger connects to the Battery terminal.
