1. ator 7 Connect the minus of the batteries to the minus of the charger Subject to change Connection diagram battery charger m Battery 2 Battery 1 Figure 1 Use of the Argo with an alternator An alternator can be used instead of a charger Follow the same connecting instruction but read alternator instead of charger Use of Argo with a R contact see figure 2 Attention the R contact can only be used when an alternator is connected to the battery isolator Operation Diode A and B cause the battery voltage to drop approximately 0 8V By connecting the voltage regulator to the compensation diode C the voltage regulator voltage also drops Therefor the voltage regulator will increase the alternator voltage so the voltage drop over diode A and B is compensated Connecting When your Argo battery has a R contact follow the same connecting instruction but add the following 7 Connect the voltage regulator to the R contact on the battery isolator Voltage regulator Alternator 1 R L A Battery 1 A c B Battery 2 ARGO Figure 2 Doc AR010100 Rev 0002 dd 25 03 032. victron energy Oy User manual for the Argo battery isolators This user manual describes the following models A e E batteries Argo 70A2 SC 7OA 2 J In the above table the Argo model and its characteristics are mentioned e The maximum current of the battery isolator For example If a charger or an alternator of 60 Amps is used the maximum current of the battery isolator has to be 70 Amps Always select a battery isolator with a higher maximum current than the maximum current of the charger or alternator e The number of batteries that can be connected to the battery isolator e R contact means that the battery isolator is equipped with a compensation diode This contact can only be used with an alternator When this contact is connected the voltage losses caused by the battery isolator are compensated Connecting instruction see figure 1 1 Check if the charger is switched off 2 Mount the Argo battery isolator as close as possible to the charger on a location where the air can circulate 3 Connect the plus of the first battery to connection 1 of the Argo battery isolator 4 Connect the plus of the second battery to connection 2 of the Argo battery isolator 5 If the battery isolator has 3 battery connections connect the plus of the third battery to connection 3 of the Argo battery isolator 6 Connect the plus of the battery charger to connection A of the battery isol
