Description
The new XR Battery Isolator is the next generation of motorsport master-switch devices from CARTEK . At 30% smaller size and 40% lighter weight, this new XR version offers even more performance.
The Solid State Battery Isolators from CARTEK are very small and highly reliable alternatives to the traditional mechanical master-switch and have been designed to overcome all of the problems and restrictions associated with mechanical and electro/mechanical safety cut-outs.
When fitted to a race car Cartek Solid State Battery Isolator simultaneously isolates the battery and kills the engine immediately when triggered in accordance with FiA safety regulations.
All CARTEK Battery Isolators are designed to be chassis mounted close to the battery which allows the heavy current power cables to be kept as short as possible. Typical installation requires one external kill button and just one internal on-off switch which are all interconnected using thin, lightweight wiring. However, the flexibility of this system also allows additional kill button/devices to be incorporated for increased safety. Microprocessor controlled incorporating false trigger detection, internal temperature monitoring and short-circuit protection offer unprecedented reliability and safety.
