The house battery and possibly also a bow thruster battery and other batteries are all connected to the starter battery with a Cyrix battery isolator. It is common practice to connect the alternator directly to the starter battery. When the Cyrix battery separator detects that the starter battery has reached the coupling voltage (then the engine is running) (From 13V to 13.8V or 26V to 27.6V), the Cyrix ensures that all batteries are charged in parallel. Detects that the disconnection voltage (engine not running) has been reached (11V to 12.8V or 22V to 25.7V) the batteries are disconnected. Not suitable for Euro 5 and 6 engines with an intelligent alternator.
A Cyrix battery isolator is an excellent alternative to a diode charge current distributor. Its main feature is that the voltage loss is practically zero, so there is no need to increase the output voltage of alternators or battery chargers.
