Description
The Victron Cyrix-ct Intelligent Battery Combiner Retail 12/24V-230A (CYR010230010R) is a heavy-duty microprocessor-controlled relay designed to efficiently manage multiple batteries by automatically connecting them in parallel once a pre-set voltage is reached, indicating that they are being charged. It disengages when the voltage drops below the float level, preventing battery discharge and ensuring system efficiency.
Unlike traditional battery combiners that rely on a fixed time delay for voltage-based switching, the Cyrix-ct intelligently tracks the general voltage trend (increasing or decreasing) and reverses previous actions only if the trend has consistently reversed over a certain period. This intelligent battery monitoring prevents unwanted switching, ensuring reliable system operation.
The Cyrix-ct 12/24 also offers overheating protection, disengaging in the event of excessive temperatures and re-engaging once it cools down. Its dual power supply ensures functionality even when one battery is too low to operate the relay. In emergency situations, it features Start Assist, manually enabling parallel battery connection for 30 seconds to help start a system.
Perfect for off-grid, marine, or backup systems, the Cyrix-ct offers a bidirectional voltage sensing capability and no voltage loss, ensuring smooth power flow without the need for additional voltage adjustments in alternators or battery chargers.
