- Product description
The VOTRONIC Power Control (VPC for short) is an innovative multi-panel system for motorhomes that combines the most important functions and information in one user-friendly device. The information is shown on a bright, white backlit graphic display. The large values displayed are easy to read in all lighting conditions, even from a distance. Coloured LEDs indicate the selected function at all times. The individual versions differ in their range of functions, which are designed to meet the specific requirements of different vehicle types. While the Jupiter version, for example, leaves almost nothing to be desired in terms of energy supply and fill levels, the Merkur version is particularly recommended for more compact vehicles, which often do not have fixed tanks.
All devices have at least one voltage indicator for the on-board and starter battery and a switching output for an external relay as a main switch. A switchable alarm (beeper) on the panel and a message on the display draw attention to the fact that the battery has fallen below an adjustable energy threshold and the main switch will switch off automatically in a few seconds to prevent the battery from discharging too deeply.
Note:VPC Terra and Jupiter can also be assigned 3 tanks each (e.g. indoor/outdoor tank, summer/winter operation, additional tank, etc.). Single switches 2xUM are suitable for switching, e.g. switch panel 16 A S art. no. 1289 or switch panel 2x16 A S art. no. 1291
Optional accessories:
- Solar Data Extender 3n1 (Art. 1440)
