Designed for 12/24V systems, this switch allows for remote operation, reducing installation time and costs while ensuring compliance with safety standards. With its LED status indicator and lightweight design, it’s the perfect addition for modern marine and automotive applications. ## Description The MD range of battery switches allow you to install the battery switch very close to the battery, to remotely manage the increased electrical loads found on today's boats. This reduces cable lengths and sizes, providing significant savings in expense and weight of copper battery cable. They are ideal for remote isolation of bow and stern thrusters. The 720-MDO has been enhanced to offer easy standard installation, or advanced options capable of switching different voltage circuits from the main supply (for example: a 48 volt bow thruster with a 24 volt house supply). The optical sensor uses the same easy connection for standard installation and gives you the ability to control different voltage circuits such as 36 or 48 volts. It can be used to switch positive or negative lines and the main contacts can be isolated from the control circuit allowing operation via another battery source. This optical sensor also has low stand-by current draw (<5mA). Review: Mounted, wired #8 Eire from derp cycle fuse to power posts (only using about 30 amps), connected remote wire activator and tested. Has been in service short time so will report if issue shows up. Review: Produit conforme a la description et facile a intégrer. ## Features - Remote operation - Battery switch can be mounted alongside battery, reducing cable lengths and cable sizes.
