Argo 1202AC 2 batteries 120A

With a load current distributor, multiple batteries can be charged simultaneously with
a single alternator. During discharge, the batteries are separated by the diodes.
For example, when the accessory battery is discharged, the starter battery will remain fully
charged.

Maximum Charging Current : 120A

Dimensions (lxwxh) : 60 x 120 x 115 M8

Alternator compensation connection
All ARGO AC models are equipped with a compensation diode output that can be connected to the alternator to slightly increase the alternator voltage. This compensates for the voltage drop across the load current distribution diodes. This is a different connection for each alternator regulator.

Alternator ‘energize’ connection Some alternators only start charging if there is voltage present on the B+ connection. When the alternator is connected directly to a battery, there will be voltage on the B+ connection. However, a diode or FET load current distributor isolates the batteries from the alternator so that it will not start. The new ARGO diode load current distributors have a separate current-limited ‘Energize’ connection with which voltage can be applied to the B+ connection when the motorcycle ignition switch is turned to the ignition position. You connect the energize connection to the switched contact of your ignition switch.

FET load current distributors
A better but more expensive solution is the FET load current distributor, which has a maximum loss of 0.1V!

Intelligent isolation relays
Especially for vehicles, we recommend intelligent isolation relays to charge a second battery. A major advantage compared to a diode or FET load current distributor is that the car installation does not need to be modified.
