- Product description
The VOTRONIC switch units operate on the basis of a bistable power relay. Their power consumption is extremely low. They are particularly suitable as remote-controlled main switches or as load relays that are to remain switched on for long periods.
The switch units can be operated remotely using a simple switch (1-pole ON / OFF).
In addition, the loads can also be switched on or off manually at the relay via an EMERGENCY ON function (EMERGENCY switch).
The range of applications extends from motorhomes and boats to emergency vehicles:
- Simple activation via simple ON / OFF switch
- High switching currents, high overload capacity for short periods
- Can be used as a main battery switch using a simple ON / OFF switch (remote-controlled)
- Switching status display visible from outside
- Electronic delay prevents excessively fast reaction, e.g. voltage dips, switching on heavy loads
- Suitable for continuous operation (very low power consumption / compliant with EN13976).
- No internal power consumption when switching off via an external switch (remote control)
- Automatic switch-off at undervoltage 8.5 V (minimum operating voltage of the switch unit)

Safety instructions and warnings
Safety instructions for Votronic battery main switch, Switch Unit 40 A 12/ 24 V:
1. before installing or servicing the battery main switch, ensure that the power supply is switched off.
2. use suitable protective equipment such as gloves and safety goggles when installing the switch.
3. ensure that the battery is fully charged before connecting the switch.
4. ensure that the connection cables are correctly connected to the corresponding poles of the battery.
5. avoid a short circuit by ensuring that no bare wires are exposed.
6. regularly check the condition of the switch and carry out maintenance if necessary.
7. keep the switch clean and dry to ensure optimum performance and service life.
8. observe the specified maximum current load of the switch and do not use it above this limit.
9. do not use the switch in environments with extreme temperatures or high humidity.
10. in the event of problems or irregularities, contact the manufacturer or authorised customer service.
