Cyrix-i 12/24V-400A - Intelligent battery combiner 400 A
Cyrix-i 12/24V-400A is a high-current, microprocessor-controlled battery combiner for 12 V or 24 V systems. It automatically connects batteries in parallel when one of them is being charged and separates them when the voltage drops below float level, handling 400 A continuously with virtually no voltage loss, unlike diode isolators.
Main features:
- Battery voltage: 12 V or 24 V, automatic detection
- Continuous current: 400 A
- Peak current: 2,000 A for 1 s
- Switching profiles: 4 selectable connect/disconnect timing profiles
- Overvoltage disconnect: 16 V at 12 V, 32 V at 24 V
- Start assist: 30 seconds, via push button or switch
The Cyrix Battery Combiner is a microprocessor controlled heavy duty relay that automatically connects batteries in parallel when one of them has reached a pre-set voltage (indicating that the battery is being charged), and disconnects when the voltage decreases below float level (indicating that one or more batteries are being discharged). Cyrix Battery Combiners are an excellent replacement for diode isolators. The main feature is that there is virtually no voltage loss so that the output voltage of alternators or battery chargers does not need to be increased.
