BI-100 Smart Battery Integrator
The BI-100 Smart Battery Integrator is designed to simultaneously charge multiple battery banks without diode isolators. It integrates batteries during charging and isolates them when the charge voltage is absent, preventing unwanted discharge between the primary and secondary batteries.
This device operates as an intelligent switch, connecting different battery banks only when a charging voltage of at least 13.2 VDC or 26.4 VDC is present (depending on the model). It eliminates any voltage drop in the charging system, ensuring efficient operation.
Once the alternator or charger is off, or if a heavy load drops the voltage below the preset disconnect point, the integrator disconnects the banks, allowing selective discharge. This feature prevents draining from one bank to another. Additionally, it can be activated remotely using a key starter or manual switch, providing a power boost from the secondary battery when needed during engine start.
The Newmar BI-100 Smart Battery Integrator is a battery management device designed for IT environments requiring reliable power distribution across multiple battery banks. It facilitates simultaneous charging of separate battery banks without the voltage drop associated with diode isolators. This unit functions as an intelligent switch, connecting battery banks only when a charging voltage of at least 13.2 VDC or 26.4 VDC is detected. When charging ceases or voltage drops below a preset threshold, the integrator disconnects the banks, preventing unintended discharge between primary and secondary batteries. This ensures that critical power sources remain isolated when not actively charging, supporting system uptime. The device is suitable for applications where efficient, isolated charging of dual battery systems is necessary, and it offers a remote activation feature for a power boost from a secondary battery during engine start or similar high-demand scenarios.
The primary function is to allow simultaneous charging of multiple battery banks without voltage loss, while ensuring complete isolation of these banks when charging voltage is absent. This prevents unwanted discharge between batteries.
The Newmar BI-100 is available with a heavy-duty silver-plated contactor rated for continuous duty at either 100 Amps or 200 Amps, depending on the specific model.
Yes, the device features epoxy-encapsulated voltage sensing circuits and durable solenoids specifically designed for marine applications, indicating its suitability for such environments. The 12 volt, 100 amp model also includes an ignition protection rating.
The BI-100 utilizes a straightforward three-wire connection for simple setup in dual bank systems, connecting to BATT +, BATT +, and GROUND. It also has a terminal for an optional remote indicator light to show integration status.
