All PowerTectors from 40A upwards are
mounted in a rugged die cast aluminium casing with
glass filled polycarbonate cover providing terminal protection
and insulation. Smaller units; 10A and 20A, are available
in a lightweight, polycarbonate casing that can be simply
fitted in line, like an inline fuse without the need to drill
the vehicle chassis.
The PowerTector Battery
Guards offer excellent protection for
communication and other mission critical
applications
Switch terminal allows the unit
to be operated via the ignition or a
manual switch
Audible alarm and/or
Visual indicator can be
installed in the dashboard
or cockpit to alert operator
of a potential problem
LED indicates
operational status.
Fully Programmable
All units in the range are supplied
pre-programmed for a variety of
scenarios offering higher or lower
disconnect voltages to and it is quick
and simple to select the correct
programme to suit your needs
whether it is to avoid battery damage
due or to protect key equipment.
A Wide Range and a
Multitude of Features
There are six units in the range from
10A to 200A. The 10A and 20A unit
offer a simple inline system, usually
wired to a specific piece of
equipment. These units do not
require chassis mounting and simply
connect and tie wrap neatly within the
wiring system.
IP65
Manual Shutdown Facility
From 40A upwards, the units also offer
the facility to fit a switched cable to
allow the unit to be connected directly
to the ignition or switch. In addition, the
100A and 200A units can have a
manual override switch. This ensures
that the operator investigates the
reason for disconnection prior to
resetting the device to allow emergency
actions to be performed.
Alarm and Disconnect
delay feature
An alarm output is supplied which,
once the voltage threshold has been
reached for 10 seconds, will activate,
sounding an alarm or other indicating
device for a further 50 seconds prior to
disconnection. This allows the operator
to re-start their engine or take other
action to maintain continuous power.

Solid State Battery Guard
The PowerTector Battery Guard is a solid state device that will monitor the source
voltage and disconnect the equipment from the battery if the voltage falls below a
pre-determined level. This can work to ensure that there is always sufficient voltage
remaining in the battery to start a vehicle engine or ensure power is available for
other critical applications. The total discharge of a lead acid battery can also cause
damage to the cells significantly shortening the life of the battery, so the PowerTector
unit can also be set to disconnect equipment at a lower voltage that will still protect
the battery from total discharge, while allowing for maximum battery usage.
40A and 60A units are connected by
M6 brass bolts and 100A and 200A
by M10 and use a three point
mounting system to avoid rocking or
stress to the electronics when
mounted on uneven surfaces. Heat
is dissipated into our custom
manufactured die cast casing and all
units will operate at full power
without additional heatsink
dissipation.
