Intellitec's Single Disconnect
Battery Control Center
offers the battery control functions used in smaller motorhomes. It
includes a remote disconnect for the auxiliary battery, a
bi-directional isolator, auxiliary start function, and nine fuses to
supply protected power from the auxiliary battery and ignition switched
sources. One of these outputs is hot only when the ignition is off, to
be used as a lock out for various functions such as slide outs and TV.
The bi-directional isolator relay delay (BIRD) function charges both
batteries when either one is being charged. When the coach is being
driven, both batteries will be charged from the engine's alternator.
When the coach is plugged into shore power, both batteries will be
charged from the converter. If neither battery is being charged, the
batteries
are fully isolated. The controller also senses heavy loads on either
battery to prevent the wrong battery from being inadvertently
discharged.
The controller operates by sensing the voltages on both batteries. When
either battery is being charged, the controller will close the isolator
solenoid, connecting the two batteries together, charging them both.
Anytime either battery voltage goes above 13.3 volts for approximately
5 seconds, the solenoid closes. (Normal charging voltages are from
approximately 13.8 to 14.4 volts.)
After the solenoid has been closed, the system continues to sense the
voltage. If the ignition switch is off and the battery voltage drops
below 12.8 volts for approximately 5 seconds, the solenoid is opened to
prevent the chassis battery from being discharged by the coach loads.
This might occur when the converter is heavily loaded.
If the ignition switch is on, the control allows the voltage to drop
below 12.0 volts for approximately 5 seconds before the solenoid is
opened. This insures the alternator's full output is available for
important chassis functions .
The unit is housed in a plastic enclosure for mounting in an engine
compartment. Battery cable connections are made directly to the
isolator. The remainder of the connections are made through Mate-N-Lok
connectors to make installation fast accurate and easy.
The remote disconnect can be used with Intellitec's BD-0 or BD-1 panels
and cables or can be wired to a user supplied switch.
