The Story
The Emergency Parallel Switch is an essential component for marine enthusiasts seeking reliable and high-performance solutions for their vessel's electrical systems. Designed to handle high currents and provide emergency functionality, this switch ensures that your large marine engines start efficiently even in critical situations.
Product Overview
This motorized switch facilitates a remotely activated, high-current emergency parallel connection, ideal for starting large engines with demands up to 2500A for short durations. Activated via a momentary dash button, the switch automatically parallels the batteries for 10 minutes, ensuring optimal performance without the risk of battery depletion from inadvertent activation.
Key Features
- Dual Voltage Operation: Compatible with both 12V and 24V systems, provided both battery banks share the same voltage.
- Manual Override: Allows for manual control in situations where remote activation may not be feasible.
- Automatic Timeout: The emergency parallel function is active for 10 minutes, automatically deactivating to prevent battery drain.
- High Current Capacity: Rated at 275A for continuous use, ensuring reliable performance under demanding conditions.
- Durable Construction: Built with tinned copper conductors, stainless steel nuts, and high-temperature fiber-reinforced plastics to withstand harsh marine environments.
- Ignition Protected: Designed to prevent ignition of flammable gases, enhancing safety on board.
- Flexible Installation: Can be recessed or surface mounted to suit various installation preferences.
