Victron Argofet 100-3 for 3 Batteries 100A Battery Isolator

Victron Argofet 100-3 Battery Isolator for 3 100A Batteries

The Victron Argofet 100-3 Battery Isolator for 3 100A Batteries is a battery isolator that allows 3 100A batteries to be charged at the same time from a single battery charger or alternator without need to connect the batteries together. For example, if an auxiliary battery is discharged this will not cause the starter battery to be discharged as well.

Compared to diode battery isolators (Argodiode), FET isolators produce nearly zero voltage drop: at low current, the voltage drop is approximately 0.02V and at nominal output, estimated to be 0.1V.

Please note that when installing a FET battery isolator, you should seek professional assistance. Simply putting the isolator between the alternator and the batteries can marginally reduce the charging voltage. As a result, the batteries may not be fully charged and their life cycle may be shortened as a result.

Specifications

Victron Argofet Battery Isolator Product Line

All models in the Victron Argofet FET battery isolators product line do not require the alternator output voltage to be increased. In any case, it is advisable that the cables have a suitable section and are short to avoid energy losses.

Some alternators require DC voltage on the B+ output to start charging. When the alternator is directly connected to a battery, DC is unavoidable. However, inserting a diode or FET divider will prohibit any return voltage/current from the batteries to the B+, resulting in a non-starting alternator.

When the engine run/stop switch is closed, the Argofet 'AC' battery isolators will power the B+ via a specific current limited power input.
