Pro Installer 400A EZ-Mount Dual Bank Control Battery Switch - MC10Another addition to our multi award winning Pro Installer EZ Mount range, the innovative Dual Bank Control switch is like 3 switches in one, House, Start, and Emergency Parallel. Offering easy intuitive control for the boater, the Dual Bank Control switch features a unique isolated-On position which allows use of house loads and VHF radio if the engine needs to be electrically isolated, or allows the engine to be isolated during servicing while still providing power to house loads (for lighting, stereo, fridge etc). For boats or vehicles with single Engine and House battery bank, Dual Bank Control allows the use of optimized battery banks for their respective loads; an appropriately sized deep cycle bank for House loads, and thin plate starting batteries for the Engine. Further, sensitive electronics are isolated from starter motor induced voltage spikes because House and Engine loads are separated during normal operation, unlike Selector battery switches. As easy as 1, 2, 3, these revolutionary EZ Mount battery switches allow you to wire from the front for the easiest surface mounting. With their shared interconnection height, EZ-Mount battery switches "cluster" directly with the Pro Installer Busbar Range, resulting in the fastest, most compact installations. Optimized cable access makes installation a breeze.

The BEP Marine Pro Installer 400A EZ-Mount Dual Bank Control Battery Switch MC10 is an advanced solution designed for easy and efficient management of dual battery banks on boats and vehicles. This switch combines three functions in one unit: House, Start, and Emergency Parallel, providing versatile control for various electrical configurations. Its innovative design features an isolated-On position, which allows users to power house loads such as lighting, stereo, and refrigerators independently of the engine, even during engine servicing, or to isolate the engine while maintaining power to essential systems. This flexibility enhances safety and operational convenience, especially in complex electrical setups. The switch is ideal for single engine and house battery systems, enabling the separation of deep cycle house batteries from thin plate starting batteries, optimizing performance and longevity of each bank. Additionally, sensitive electronics are protected from voltage spikes caused by the starter motor, as the switch ensures proper separation during normal operation. The EZ Mount installation system simplifies wiring, allowing front surface mounting with a shared interconnection height that enables compact, clustered installations with the Pro Installer Busbar range. This design reduces installation time and improves accessibility, thanks to optimized cable access and removable side plates for protection and serviceability. Built to withstand harsh marine environments, the switch is waterproof to IP67 standards and tested for ignition protection, ensuring durability and safety in demanding conditions. It features sturdy 10mm (3/8 inch) tinned copper studs, stainless steel washers and nuts, and a fiber-reinforced plastic housing for added strength. With a continuous rating of 400A, 600A for 5 minutes intermittently, and 1500A for 10 seconds during cranking, this switch is suitable for high-current applications, provided appropriate cable sizing. The switch's compact footprint measures 3.85 inches square, making it suitable for surface mounting in tight spaces. Each unit undergoes rigorous testing for pressure sealing, rotation force, and electrical load capacity to ensure reliable performance. The switch operates on 48V DC systems, compatible with 12-48V systems with matching voltage banks, providing versatile installation options for various marine and vehicle electrical systems. For detailed installation and operation instructions, consult the owner’s manual available online. The BEP Marine Pro Installer 400A EZ-Mount Dual Bank Control Battery Switch MC10 offers a combination of safety, flexibility, and ease of installation, making it an essential component for advanced battery management in marine and vehicle applications.
