Discharging one bank, such as a domestic service battery, cannot flatten the other, so the engine start battery stays protected and ready to crank.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis version uses low-drop Schottky diodes for isolation, giving a forward voltage drop of roughly 0.3 V at light load and about 0.45 V at the rated output. A fitted compensation diode allows the alternator output voltage to be raised slightly to offset the diode drop. It is the base 80A model without an alternator energize input, suiting installations whose alternator does not need external B+ excitation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe isolator adjusts automatically to 12 V or 24 V systems and needs no control wiring or maintenance. Its compact steel enclosure suits marine, motorhome and off-grid setups where two banks share one charge source.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Victron","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56272659317076,"sku":"ARG080202000","price":45.6,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0941\/9702\/3060\/files\/victron-15553410007380.jpg?v=1783006654","url":"https:\/\/hme.sprechen.dev\/products\/argo-battery-isolating-schotty-diode-splitter-low-volt-drop","provider":"Hudson Marine Electronics","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
