Description
The DC Modular Remote Battery Switch 24 V / 500 A is a smart high current magnetic latching contactor, that can handle continuous DC currents of up to 500 Amps. The Remote Battery Switch 24 V / 500 A can easily be installed in an engine room or battery compartment while being controlled from a more convenient location by a small panel mounted switch. But the Switch can for instance also be controlled by a battery monitor or Lithium battery, as a discharge/overcharge protection.
