Programmable Automatic Charging Relay (ACR) 160A, 12V
This 160A Egis charging relay is automatic and programable. The relay eliminates dead start batteries by sharing charging on either of two batteries and isolating batteries when no charge sources are present.
Applications:
- Supports multiple engines or independent charge systems by incorporating two independent start or engine isolation inputs to allow isolation of charge sources when both are active to maximize charging performance.
- Protects Electrical System Cascading Faults with an optional lock-out from closing if one terminal is connected to a battery with a shorted cell.
Features:
- Ultra-Low Power Draw Compared to typical ACRs (7-10 mA) vs 7610 ACR @ 1.3 mA, will not deplete batteries even after extended electrical system downtime.
- Simple and robust installation - The integrated sealed plug eliminates corrosion and includes a Deutsch/Amphenol DTM connector harness
- Start Assist input option to ensure maximum cranking amps are available by allowing the manual connection of batteries via a remote switch.
- Bullet-proof construction - Sealed unit, stainless steel hardware, and high-temperature materials allow mounting anywhere. Integrated thermal overload shutdown protection.
- Additional low-amp output can be used to report device status remotely or drive a secondary relay for charging a battery bank without a charge source (see example)

Focal Features:
Top Side Dip Switches
Accessible after mounting for programming voltage settings and determining active features. Protected by self-retained cover.
Stainless Steel Self-Locking Hardware
100% Non-ferrous corrosion-resistant materials. All attachment screws and nuts are self-locking.
Integral I/O Connector
Sealed Molex MX-150 connector eliminates the susceptibility to corrosion and vibrating loose of 1/4" quick connect terminals on competitive products.
Connection Options
Comes standard with a Deutsch DT/AT style connector harness. Provides three connection options (MX-150, DT/AT, and wire leads).
Easy Integration with RT Fuse Blocks (24 HR Circuits)
Optional EasyLink bus bars reduce the space and cost of connecting TH Series relays with RT Series Fuse Blocks.
LED Diagnostics
Provides an indication of pending relay ON/OFF, under voltage, over voltage/temp, start isolation/assist, and output on/off status.
Specifications:
- Lockable: Yes
