Egis Mobile Electric Programmable Automatic Charging Relay (ACR) 160A, 12V

Programmable Automatic Charging Relay (ACR) 160A, 12V

This 160A Egis charging relay is automatic and programable. The relay eliminates dead start batteries by sharing charging on either of two batteries and isolating batteries when no charge sources are present.

Applications:

• Supports multiple engines or independent charge systems by incorporating two independent start or engine isolation inputs to allow isolation of charge sources when both are active to maximize charging performance.
• Protects Electrical System Cascading Faults with an optional lock-out from closing if one terminal is connected to a battery with a shorted cell.

Features:

• Ultra-Low Power Draw Compared to typical ACRs (7-10 mA) vs 7610 ACR @ 1.3 mA, will not deplete batteries even after extended electrical system downtime.
• Simple and robust installation - The integrated sealed plug eliminates corrosion and includes a Deutsch/Amphenol DTM connector harness
• Start Assist input option to ensure maximum cranking amps are available by allowing the manual connection of batteries via a remote switch.
• Bullet-proof construction - Sealed unit, stainless steel hardware, and high-temperature materials allow mounting anywhere. Integrated thermal overload shutdown protection.
• Additional low-amp output can be used to report device status remotely or drive a secondary relay for charging a battery bank without a charge source (see example)

Specifications:

• Continuous Current (Amps): 160
• Voltage Range: 8-18 VDC
• Off-State Current Draw mA: 1.3
• Interrupt Current (Amps): 240
• ACR Closing Voltage (VDC): 12.9-13.6
• ACR Opening Voltage (VDC): 12.1-12.8

Focal Features:

Top Side Dip Switches

Accessible after mounting for programming voltage settings and determining active features. Protected by self-retained cover.

Stainless Steel Self-Locking Hardware

100% Non-ferrous corrosion-resistant materials. All attachment screws and nuts are self-locking.

Integral I/O Connector

Sealed Molex MX-150 connector eliminates the susceptibility to corrosion and vibrating loose of 1/4" quick connect terminals on competitive products.

Connection Options

Comes standard with a Deutsch DT/AT style connector harness. Provides three connection options (MX-150, DT/AT, and wire leads).

Easy Integration with RT Fuse Blocks (24 HR Circuits)

Optional EasyLink bus bars reduce the space and cost of connecting TH Series relays with RT Series Fuse Blocks.

LED Diagnostics

Provides an indication of pending relay ON/OFF, under voltage, over voltage/temp, start isolation/assist, and output on/off status.

The Egis Mobile Electric Part Number 7610 is a high-capacity, programmable automatic charging relay designed for reliable battery management in various automotive and marine applications. This 160A relay automatically shares charging between two batteries, preventing dead start issues and optimizing power distribution. Its intelligent design isolates batteries when no charge sources are available, ensuring system integrity and longevity. The relay supports multiple engine or charge system configurations, with two independent start or engine isolation inputs that maximize charging efficiency during operation. An optional lock-out feature prevents relay closure if a shorted cell is detected, protecting the electrical system from cascading faults. Built for durability, the relay features a sealed construction with stainless steel hardware and high-temperature materials, allowing for versatile mounting options even in harsh environments. The integrated thermal overload shutdown adds an extra layer of safety, ensuring reliable operation over long periods.

The Egis ACR includes several user-friendly features such as top-side dip switches for easy programming of voltage settings and active features, protected by a self-retained cover. Its sealed Molex MX-150 connector eliminates corrosion concerns, while the Deutsch/Amphenol DTM connector harness provides flexible connection options. The relay’s low power draw of just 1.3 mA minimizes battery depletion during extended downtime, making it ideal for remote or infrequently used systems. Additional low-amp outputs enable remote device status monitoring or control of secondary relays to charge a battery bank without a dedicated charge source.

Designed for seamless integration, the relay is compatible with RT fuse blocks via optional EasyLink bus bars, reducing installation space and complexity. LED diagnostics offer real-time feedback on relay status, including ON/OFF states, voltage levels, temperature alerts, start isolation, and assist functions.
