ntt:: All external device connections must be connected through the LVD switch as per
instructions detailed below. Failure to connect external devices through the LVD
switch may result controller and/or battery related failures being rejected by
warranty. The LVD switch acts as a protective medium between the SLXi unit
electrical system and external device(s).
How it Works
The LVD switch acts as a protective medium between the SLXi unit electrical system and external
device(s).
The function of the LVD switch is as follows:
•
Disconnects power to external devices when battery voltage drops below 12.1V (for longer
than 5-7 minutes).
•
Automatically resets when system voltage rises above 13V (for longer than 10 seconds).
•
Provides connection point in control box for up to 3 external devices.
LVD Maintenance
For information regarding installation instructions of the LVD retrofit kit, or installation of
external devices to LVD, please refer to TK 61516-11-2. ‘Low voltage disconnect installation
instructions’.
•
Actual LVD switch is located attached to the frame below the alternator.
•
External device connection point consists of an 8-pin Deutsch connector located inside the
control box.
