No stock, discontinued
4 position (1 ON / 2 ON / 1+2 ON / OFF), single pole marine battery isolator / changeover (master) switch rated at 100A continuous use. Features a chunky control knob with a positive switching action.
Used for switching between, or combining, two independent battery banks in charging and discharging applications and for isolation from loads or a charging source. Also useful for preventing parasitic battery drain when left for long periods or as an emergency shut-off in boats and vehicles.
Surface-mounted with slide-out cable entry panels.
Sold individually. Fixings not included.
Note: If this switch is used to isolate a starter battery it should not be switched to the OFF position when the engine is running (except in an emergency situation) because there is a high risk of damage to the diodes in the alternator rectifier unit.
Part Number: BIS1027
Good service from 12VPlanet. Switch used to give more control to two yacht batteries.
Response:
Thank you for the positive feedback!
All as advertised, would use again
Used to switch between leisure batteries and power distribution board. Works well in an awkward position.
The isolator is a compact footprint, and seems robust. I have not run final commissioning and life tests on the DC to AC unit I have used it in yet but....During assembly the triangular internal contact came loose and jammed the switch. Panic - I was putting the DC to AC power unit fout for its first filed test the next day! So I disassembled the switch and reassembled it correctly and all is fine now. It was lucky that I had a square headed screw driver from when I lived in Canada though!
