BGW-400 Battery Voltage Protector 400 AMP
The Battery Voltage Protector BGW-400 is an intelligent, user-programmable, fully waterproof low-voltage disconnect. The battery voltage protector prevents excessive discharge of the battery (which would damage the battery) and protects electronic appliances against overvoltage. The BGW automatically detects the battery voltage (12 or 24V). The battery voltage protector is capable of carrying a 400A continuous load and a 410A transient load. There is a choice of 10 on/off threshold voltage programs for both 12V and 24V battery systems, which can be easily programmed. The BGW-400 has additional options for a remote off switch and an alarm output for connecting a buzzer, LED strip, or relay. With its new rubberized polyurethane construction and low-profile design, the battery voltage protector can be easily mounted in any location.
Features:
- Waterproof IP66 rating
- High voltage cut-off of 16 VDC protects equipment from over-voltage conditions.
- Low Profile, sealed and rugged casing – allows installation flexibility.
- OFF Control input – disconnect the battery through a remote switch or relay.
- Status Indicator – output signal allows for an external indication lamp or buzzer alarm.
- Load shedding – disconnect non-critical equipment early, extending the backup time on critical ones.
