Samlex Protector 400A 12-24V

SAMLEX Protector 400A 12-24V | Programmable Heavy-Duty Battery Guard

Protect your critical power systems and extend battery life with the SAMLEX Protector 400A 12-24V, an essential component for any high-demand electrical connection. Designed for robust performance in commercial vehicles, marine applications, and off-grid power systems, this intelligent battery guard provides unparalleled protection against both under-voltage and over-voltage events, safeguarding your valuable batteries and sensitive electronic equipment.

Ensure your power is always there when you need it. The primary function of the SAMLEX Protector is to prevent the excessive discharge of your battery bank. By constantly monitoring the voltage, it automatically disconnects non-essential loads when the voltage drops to a pre-set level. This crucial action prevents deep discharge, a leading cause of premature battery failure and irreversible capacity loss, thereby maximizing the lifespan and return on your battery investment.

Key Benefits:

* Maximize Battery Lifespan: Avoid costly and premature battery replacements. The Protector intelligently disconnects loads to prevent damaging deep discharges, preserving your battery´s health and ensuring long-term performance.
* Safeguard Sensitive Electronics: Protect your valuable equipment from damaging voltage fluctuations. The integrated over-voltage protection feature disconnects appliances if the voltage exceeds a safe threshold, preventing burnout and system failure.
* Ensure System Reliability: Gain complete peace of mind with a fully programmable and automated solution. Set your own specific disconnect and reconnect voltage thresholds to perfectly match your system´s requirements and ensure critical functions, like engine starting, are always prioritized.
* Heavy-Duty, Efficient Performance: Engineered for high-current applications, the 400A model handles substantial loads with minimal energy loss. Its advanced design ensures extremely low voltage drop, maximizing the power available to your devices.

Main Features:

* Automatic 12/24V System Detection: The unit intelligently recognizes whether it is connected to a 12V or 24V system, simplifying installation and ensuring correct operation without manual configuration.
* Fully Programmable Thresholds: Offers 10 programmable options for both disconnect and reconnect voltage levels, providing ultimate flexibility to customize the protection parameters for any type of battery or application.
* High Current 400A Capacity: Capable of managing a continuous load of 400 Amperes, making it ideal for systems with heavy-duty equipment such as inverters, winches, lift gates, and communication systems.
* Integrated Over-Voltage Protection: Automatically safeguards connected loads by disconnecting them if the system voltage rises above 16V (for 12V systems) or 32V (for 24V systems).
* Remote On/Off Control: Features a dedicated connection for a remote switch, allowing the unit to be manually turned on or off from a convenient location, such as the vehicle´s dashboard.
* Dedicated Alarm Output: Includes an alarm output connection that can be used to trigger a visual or audible warning before the disconnection occurs, alerting the operator to a low-voltage condition.
