Charge Mate Pro 40

Description

A secondary battery on board often requires a dedicated charging solution to ensure proper distribution of power, and the Charge Mate Pro provides an efficient way to manage this. By effectively distributing the current from a charger or alternator between two battery banks—such as a starter and a service battery—the Charge Mate Pro ensures that both are charged without compromising performance. During charging, it connects both batteries, but isolates them during discharging, significantly reducing the risk of a flat starter battery. This makes it an ideal solution for marine applications, where reliable power is critical. One key advantage of the Charge Mate Pro over mechanical charge relays is its ability to limit the charge current to the second battery. This ensures that the primary battery, like a starter battery, receives priority during charging. Even when the secondary battery has a higher voltage, the return current is blocked, preventing unnecessary discharge and maintaining optimal battery health. An additional feature is the option to connect to a bypass switch, enabling emergency starts if needed. In marine settings, the Charge Mate Pro is particularly useful for applications like connecting a bow thruster battery to a service battery. It prioritizes charging for the service battery while blocking return current from the bow thruster battery, ensuring both batteries remain charged and preventing power dips that could disrupt the onboard electrical network. The Charge Mate Pro is available in two versions—40 Amp and 90 Amp—both suitable for charger or alternator applications. Designed for leisure, professional marine, and mobile applications, the Charge Mate Pro offers an effective solution for high-power demand scenarios where controlled, prioritized, or current-limited charging is required. It ensures safe and reliable battery management, making it a valuable asset for any onboard power system.
