Intellitec Part #: 01-00055-008
THE RELAY - How it Works
The Battery Disconnect Relay is a mechanically latching switch that operates by the momentary application of battery voltage to the coil terminals in one direction for latching (closed) or the other direction for unlatching (open).
To close the relay, +24 volts is applied to the ""I"" terminal and ground the ""S"" terminal of the relay.
To open the relay, +24 volts is applied to the ""S"" terminal and ground on the ""I"" terminal.
No voltage is required for the relay to stay open or closed, All it takes is a momentary application of 24 volts from a remote (ON)/OFF/(ON) switch. On most Sea Ray boats, these battery disconnect switches are located on the MDP Main distribution Panel in the cabin. The relays are built to withstand vibration and harsh marine environments.
FUSES
There are two 5 Amp fuses mounted on each relay. Looking at the relay with cap at the top, the fuse on the right feeds the LED indicator and if so equipped, the digital voltmeter. The fuse on the left feeds the power to the switch that operates the solenoid.
