Magnum ME-SBC 2 Bank Smart Battery Combiner

Magnum ME-SBC 2 Bank Smart Battery Combiner Product Description

The Battery Charger Controller is an innovative two-bank battery combiner. It is designed to monitor and charge a second battery using a portion of the current that is charging a main battery. This 25 Ampere combiner and isolator integrates an optional solenoid drive, remote voltage sense for more accurate sensing, High and Low battery cut-out to prevent over/undercharging, and automatic 12 or 24 Volt operation. Connection to the oversized terminals is easy and simple. The basic design makes connecting the smart battery combiner as simple as it can get. Like other 3 wire voltage followers, this is a very simple device to connect and setup. The universal controls and connections make this a perfect replacement product. The remote sense line can be used to monitor the battery voltage of a battery far away or at a charging source. Also, this is used to help minimize unnecessary cycling between combining and isolating, which can lead to early solenoid failure.
