Basic Battery Management System
The new Instruments Basic Electronic Dual battery Management. In this kit we use a high grade IP67 water proof Automotive quality European manufactured relay which the manufacture quotes one of its typical application is for Dual battery switches
We have selected to use a 130 Amp continuous current rated and 300 Amp peak rated part
Our system has full spike/surge protection and gives Priority charging to your main battery before charging your auxiliary battery. IP67 waterproof sealed relay and Special Military Specification Conformal coating of the Main PCB to resist corrosion and water damage, this is one of the toughest isolators on the market today
The BMS1000 Battery Management System uses advanced Microprocessor technology and offers a huge range of features in a compact size
Engineered and manufactured for performance and long term reliability, the AI-BMS1000 is the ideal choice for all dual battery systems, including 4WDs, caravans and motor-homes where the user does not have room for a display
Unlike a lot of our competitors we do not use trim pots or hand built PCB boards, this and all Autron Instruments products use robotically loaded board and feature the latest technology. Our Electronics are fully designed and made in Australia in our ISO9001:2000 facility
Advanced Electronics
Fully Automatic operation using advanced electronics and high performance relay
The electronics are rated for tough 4WD conditions and the relay is IP67 rated and fully sealed against dust and water
High accuracy electronics manage the auxiliary battery for both effective charging and safe starting as well as the unit operation when ignition is on
The main starting battery is always protected and cannot be drained by a load connected to the auxiliary battery
Electronics are factory calibrated - no adjustments are required for the life of the unit
Efficient and low power design offers maximum charging current for auxiliary battery
New intelligent current limit circuit isolates auxiliary battery on accidental overload
Electrical spike and surge protection
Operation
The BMS1000 Battery Management System Gives Priority charging to the Main Battery and only switches the Auxiliary battery in for charging once the Main battery has achieved 13.5 volts and stabilised for 12 seconds
It will switch out the AUX battery if an over current condition is detected to protect the cables and relay
The system also offers an override function to allow starting from AUX battery if the main battery is flat
The system also alerts (Beeps) if either the Main or AUX battery are being over charged or an under voltage condition occurs
The electronics fully monitors the connection to the relay for short circuits or open circuits in the relay operation wiring and displays an alert if there is a problem, thus guarantee the operation of the system
Easy to Install
Simple to install: all wires, including 2 x 3m heavy duty battery cables, battery terminals etc. are provided. See pictures.
Easily mounted to engine bay or firewall
