DC SOURCE BATTERY CHARGER IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS — This manual contains important safety and operating instructions for the battery charger. BATTERY CHARGER PRECAUTIONS 1. Do not expose the battery charger to rain or snow unless it is a sealed model. 2. U se of an attachment not recommended or sold by the battery charger manufacturer may result in a risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons. 3.
iv. If battery acid contacts skin or clothing, wash immediately with soap and water. If acid enters eye, immediately flood eye with running cold water for at least 10 v. NEVER smoke or allow a spark or flame in the vicinity of a battery. vi. Be extra cautious to reduce risk of dropping a metal tool onto battery.

Introduction Analytic Systems introduces the updated IBI2/3 series of battery isolators, allowing you to charge 2 bank and 3 bank battery systems all from a single alternator. Ideal for automotive, naval or trucking purposes, the IBI also isolates the battery banks using Analytic Systems’ Ideal Diode technology preventing a discharged bank from draining a charged one. Ideal Diode technology uses MOSFET transistors and control circuitry in place of the diode used in traditional battery isolators.
Main Parts 1 2 3 Pictured: IBI3 Top Panel Top Panel 1. Alternator Positive Connection: 5/16”-18 Silicon-Bronze Hex Bolt 2. Battery Positive Connection(s): 1/4”-20 Silicon-Bronze Hex Bolt (On the IBI2 model, there are two connections instead of the three pictured.) 3. Ground Point: #10-32 Stainless Steel Phillips Screw 4. Ignition Connection: TE Connective AMP Connectors Quick Connect Male 3-520107-2 5.
Operation Mounting Mount the unit in a convenient location between your alternator and battery banks, this location should be clear and unobstructed for running cables between the three. If mounting on a metal surface, the ground potential of the surface should be the same as the battery negative. On a steel or aluminum boat this may not be the case for electrolysis prevention. In this case, mount the IBI on a plywood board or other non-conductive material.
Output Connection The output connection connects the battery isolator to the battery banks. To set up this connection: For each battery bank: 1. Prepare a cable with a 1/4” lug on one end (End A) . On the other end, attach a connector suitable for the positive terminal of the battery bank (End B) 2. Connect End A to the Battery Positive Connection. 3. Connect End B to the positive terminal of the battery bank. 4. Connect the negative terminal of the battery bank to the ground.
