INSTALLATO: Ripartitore Attivo di Carica Sterling

[matteo]

Tratto dal manuale Sterling: Fusibili 1,5 volte l'amperaggio del ripartitore (non delle batterie), fusibili 2 volte l'amperaggio massimo dell'alternatore.

'Fuses : Because the instructions refer to 12V as well as 24V units between 100 and 200 amps and there
are a lot of different fuse possibilities and combinations, it is simply not possible for us to recommend any
fuse values. This will be up to the installer. However, here are a few key issues to remember when choosing
a fuse:
1) In most cases a fuse is there to protect the cable not the product, so always fuse 50% plus on the product
rating. For example, if the product is a 50 amp charger, use a 75 amp+ fuse.
2) Too small a fuse in an alternator line can cause major problems. If, for example, you have a 90 amp
alternator and you only put a 90 amp fuse on, then on start up and when cold, a 90 amp alternator can
produce about 120 amps. This will blow the fuse and because you have open circuited the alternator, this
will result in the destruction of the alternator. So it is vital that an alternator cannot blow its fuse normal
operating paramters as this will be an expensive mistake. Always fuse high, i.e. on a 90 amp alternator use a
150 - 200 amp fuse.'
