2. Features

The BatteryProtect offers a wide range of different features. These include:

• Protection of the battery against excessive discharge and can be used as a system on/off switch.

• 12/24V auto ranging. The BatteryProtect automatically detects system voltage one time only (can be re-triggered - see section

Programming table [11]

).

• A special setting for Lithium batteries. This feature allows external control from a BMS like the VE.Bus BMS or Lynx Smart

BMS. If the load disconnect output of a BMS is connected to the Remote H input and the signal becomes free-floating, the load
is immediately disconnected.

• Ultra-low current consumption of 1.5mA: This is important in case of Li-ion batteries, especially after low voltage shutdown.

• Over voltage protection: To prevent damage to sensitive loads due to over voltage. The load is disconnected whenever the DC

voltage exceeds 16.3V (for a 12V system) respectively 32.6V (for a 24V system).

• Ignition proof: No relays but MOSFET switches, and therefore no sparks.

• Delayed alarm output: The alarm output is activated if the battery voltage drops below the preset disconnect level fore more

than 12 seconds. Starting the engine will therefore not activate the alarm.

• Delayed load disconnect and delayed reconnect. Responding quickly within this delay, for example by reducing the load or

starting a generator or charger to charge the batteries, can prevent loads from being switched off.
