Victron Argodiode 80-2AC battery isolating diode 80A for 2 batteries

Victron Argodiode 80-2AC 2 batteries 80A

Battery isolating diodes allow simultaneous charging of several batteries from one power source without Individual batteries are connected to each other. This means that the on-board battery can be charged without At the same time, the starter battery is also discharged. By using modern Schottky diodes, the voltage loss is also kept small. is approximately 0.3 V at low currents and approximately 0.45 V at rated current.

All models in this series are equipped with a compensation diode, which adjusts the output voltage of the alternator is slightly increased in order to compensate the voltage loss through the Shottky diodes to balance.

Generator starting excitation Some generator types require a direct voltage at the B+ pole for starting excitation. On the one hand, the There is a direct cable connection between the battery and the generator. On the other hand, The isolation diode prevents the current from flowing back, so that the generator does not start. The new 802AC battery isolator has a special current-limited connection for the start-up excitation, when the generator is started.
