Product Details

The Victron Argofet 200-2 Battery Isolator is engineered to manage dual battery systems in 12/24V applications, such as marine vessels, RVs, and off-grid setups. Unlike traditional diode-based isolators, the Argofet series utilises FET technology, resulting in virtually no voltage loss; less than 0.02V at low currents and averaging 0.1V at higher currents. This efficiency ensures that both batteries receive optimal charging without the need for increased alternator output voltage.

Key features include:

  • Dual Battery Charging: Allows simultaneous charging of two batteries from a single source without connecting them, preventing unintended discharge between batteries.
  • High Current Capacity: Capable of handling up to 200A, accommodating high-power systems and ensuring reliable performance under load.
  • Low Voltage Drop: The FET design minimises voltage loss, enhancing the efficiency of the charging process.
  • Alternator Energize Input: Features a current-limited energize input to activate the alternator charging circuit, ensuring proper operation even when the engine is off.
  • Compact and Robust Design: With dimensions of 65 x 120 x 200 mm and a weight of 1.4 kg, the isolator is both space-efficient and durable, suitable for harsh environments.
Product Specifications

Performance Specifications

  • Maximum Charge Current: 200 A
  • Maximum Alternator Current: 200 A
  • Number of Battery Outputs: 2
  • Nominal Battery Voltage: 12 V and 24 V
  • Voltage Drop (Low Current): Less than 0.02 V
  • Voltage Drop (High Current): Average 0.1 V

Key Features

  • High Efficiency: Utilizes FET (Field Effect Transistor) technology to provide high-current distribution with negligible voltage drop.
  • Alternator Energize Input: Features a special current-limited energize input designed for modern alternators that require a DC voltage on the B+ output to begin charging. This powers the B+ when the engine run/stop switch is closed.
  • Battery Isolation: Prevents current flow between battery banks, protecting the start battery from being drained by house loads.
  • Simplified Installation: Eliminates the need for alternator voltage compensation typically required with traditional diode splitters.

Mechanical Specifications

  • Connection Type: M8 bolts
  • Dimensions (H x W x D): 65 x 120 x 200 mm (2.6 x 4.7 x 7.9 inches)
  • Weight: 1.4 kg (3.1 lbs)
  • Design: Rugged heat-sink chassis for effective thermal management.

Installation Recommendations

  • Cable Selection: To maintain the high efficiency of the FET isolator, it is recommended to keep cable lengths short and use a sufficient cross-section to minimize external voltage drops.
  • Ground Connection: Ensure the dedicated ground terminal is properly connected for the energize circuit to function correctly.
