Victron Energy ARGOFET Battery Isolator: Efficient Charging and Installation Guide

The Victron Energy ARGOFET Battery Isolator is an advanced solution for managing multiple battery banks, utilizing efficient Field Effect Transistor (FET) technology. This design ensures virtually no voltage loss, a significant improvement over traditional diode isolators, leading to more effective battery charging without the need to increase alternator output voltage.

Key advantages of the ARGOFET include:

Minimal Voltage Drop: Experience less than 0.02V loss at low currents and an average of 0.1V at higher currents, optimizing charging efficiency.
12/24V System Compatibility: Automatically adjusts to operate seamlessly with both 12V and 24V electrical systems.
Alternator Energize Input: Equipped with a dedicated input to provide the necessary signal to the alternator's B+ terminal, ensuring charging starts correctly.
Battery Bank Separation: Keeps battery banks isolated during discharge, preserving the charge of the starting battery while accessories draw power.

Installation is straightforward, involving connections to the alternator, battery banks, and optionally to the engine's run/stop switch. For detailed instructions and further information, please visit the Victron Energy official website.
