Newmar GI-60-FS 60-Amp Fail Safe Galvanic Isolator

Newmar GI-60-FS Galvanic Isolator (60A, Fail Safe) installs between the AC safety ground and DC bonding system, blocking most low-voltage currents and corrosive action on vital metallic components in saltwater. It is designed for boaters who want to significantly reduce galvanic corrosion on sacrificial anodes while maintaining the integrity of the critical safety ground path.

With the low voltage current blocked, this isolator delivers meaningful savings in boat haul-out fees and zinc replacement costs, and a large capacitor provides a secondary low-impedance path for AC current to reach ground. Meeting the latest ABYC A-28 2019 requirements including fail-safe operation, this isolator is certified to UL1500 for ignition protection and tested to 50°C ambient temperature.
