Description
The Victron Argo Diode Battery Isolator (160A, 2 Batteries) allows simultaneous charging of two or more batteries from one alternator, without connecting the batteries. It is designed for boaters who want to discharge an accessory battery without also discharging the starter battery.
Low voltage drop is achieved through high-efficiency Schottky diodes: at low current, drop is approximately 0.3V, rising to approximately 0.45V at rated output. All models are fitted with a compensation diode to slightly increase the alternator's output voltage, offsetting the voltage drop across the isolator's diodes and helping ensure batteries reach a full charge. Browse more options in our alternators and charging hardware category.
Key Features: 160A, 2 battery outputs, Schottky diodes, compensation diode included.
Frequently Asked Questions
What diode technology does this isolator use? High-efficiency Schottky diodes.
What does the compensation diode do? Slightly increases the alternator's output voltage to offset diode voltage drop.
How many batteries does this isolator support? 2, at up to 160 amps.
Please contact your dealer for any returns, repairs, or support issues related to this product.
