Argo 1602AC 2 batteries 160A
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 : 160 A
Maximum alternator current : 160 A
Number of batteries : 2
Weight : 1.2 kg
Dimensions (lxwxh) : 60 x 120 x 150
Argo load current distributors are used in installations where different batteries
(in a 12 or 24-volt circuit) are used independently of each other.
Load current distributors are needed to charge accessory and starter batteries separately in, for example, yachts and
motorhomes. This could also be done with a manual switch. However, a manual
switch or isolation relay does not offer maximum safety (when switching over,
the voltage from the alternator increases) and can even cause a fire (arcing
during pulsating current draw). We therefore recommend using the Argo load current distributor.
Furthermore, the different battery banks are charged simultaneously
and separately with an Argo.
