INSTALLATION AND OPERATION MANUAL

Introduction

Designed for use in application requiring balanced charge control from 

two alternators and two regulators on twin engines, the Centerfielder

II: CFII-12/24 makes it possible to utilize the combined output of both 

alternators to supply optimized charging to a single large battery bank.

By monitoring the ignition and field voltages at port and starboard

regulators, the CFII-12/24 determines when both engines are running, 

and directs field current from the master (starboard) regulator to both

alternators. By controlling both alternators with the same field source,

the CFII-12/24 ensures that alternators can work together to ensure 

optimal charging at a single large battery bank.

Safety Considerations

1.

Always disconnect your battery banks and

ensure that switches are “OFF” prior to

installing your regulator.

2.

Remove loose-fitting clothing or jewelry,

which could become entangled in your

motor or other machinery prior to installing

regulator.

3.

Wear ANSI-approved safety eye-wear and

protective gear.

4.

DO NOT attempt to modify the regulator.

Modifications could result in damage to

your charging system, and will void your

warranty.

5.

DO NOT attempt installation if you are tired

or fatigued.

6.

Ensure that the engine has cooled before

initiating installation.

7.

DO NOT attempt regulator installation while

using alcohol or medication that could

impair your judgment or reaction time.

8.

Always use the right tool for the job.

Improper tool use may damage regulator

or your vessel, and could result in personal

injury.

9.

Take time to read the manual. Equipment

damage and possible injuries may result

from an incomplete understanding of the

installation and operation of the MC-612-

DUAL regulator. If you are unfamiliar with

marine electrical systems, consult with a

licensed marine electrician.
