Heavy duty split charge system, employing either 100 amp or 200 amp continuous rated relays. The system follows normal Powercentre practice, in that the alternator output is connected to the starter motor input cable from the battery. This has the benefit of using a large cable conductor that is already in place for charge currents, and always keeping the alternator permanently connected to the battery. It requires no changes to the normal engine wiring system, and minimises the number of connections, thus possible fault areas in service.

Link start requires just a push button switch and two wires. This will engage the link / charge relay for a 90 second period, to allow engine starting,  after which the relay will drop out. If the low battery comes on charge, the relay will lock in to allow both alternators to charge the low battery, and supply service power.  

Twin engine installations, the bi-direction charging allows both alternators to charge the service battery, spreading the service load between both alternators, leading to improved output voltages. With a bow battery, programmed charging allows the non service battery alternator to charge the bow battery, before connecting to the service bank. Another benefit is providing alternator redundancy, should one fail the remaining alternator will still supply all battery banks.

Power-lockout relay, will drop out power ( following a 4 minute delay period ) to non-essential equipment at low service battery voltages, automatic reset at a satisfactory battery voltage.

Reserve power relay isolates part of the service battery bank, providing a power reserve at low battery levels. Critical equipment is supported by the reserve bank, which can be located at a higher level for added security, while normal loads are supplied from the remaining service bank.
