This system uses a heavy duty version of a simple make and break relay the coil of which is energised by a signal that is only 12v when the engine is running usually the charge signal wire from the alternator.
Durite split charge relay wiring.
Connect the cable from the two batteries to the split charge relay.
The durite smart relay has been designed to be used with the latest range of vehicles fitted with smart alternators and regenerative braking systems.
Place the leads and screw the nuts back in.

Instillation guide for a 12v voltage sense split charge relay system thank you for purchasing this kit from simply split charge.
Connect the cables to the relay.
Plus enjoy more flexibility with our customisable made to order programmable timer relays.
A 12 volt relay is the same type of relay that you would find in many 12 volt electrical systems.
In addition there are 9 available programmes allowing the user to set the charging protection voltages to suit their requirements.
For some reason the relay i got didn t have any gaps on the plastic edges to place the cables.
A 12 volt relay often called a manual split charge relay is an electronic device that uses an electromagnet to pull a set of contacts that make or break a circuit.
I have left boxes on the diagram on the left to help you with your measurements.
140a relay makes at 13 3 volts and breaks at 12 65 volts.

Have a look at the diagram above to see the basic wiring diagram of your voltage sensed split charge kit.
To to this remove the back plastic cover and unscrew the nuts.
Allows split charging of second battery bank without discharging the primary start battery.
Designed to charge and maintain a 24 volt auxiliary battery from a 12 volt dc system.
