Guarding CV batteries

17 May 2013  

A solid state battery guard for commercial vehicles is now available from Alfatronix, an established firm in the field of voltage conversion products. The PowerTector battery guard monitors the source voltage and will disconnect the battery if voltage falls below a preset level. This will ensure there is always sufficient voltage to start a vehicle or provide power for other crucial applications. The device can be used as part of a battery management system to ensure the battery is never entirely depleted or in line with specific ancillary equipment. There are six units available from 10 amps to 200 amps to suit most applications.
