Intelligent Charging Solution for Marine Applications
The Egis Automatic Charging Relay Plus (ACR) - 160A - 24V is engineered to eliminate dead-start batteries by intelligently managing the charging of two batteries and isolating them when no charge sources are present. This relay is perfect for marine applications, ensuring your vessel's batteries are always ready and operational.
General Description
The 160A Egis Automatic Charging Relay Plus is designed to optimize battery charging and isolation in marine environments. It supports multiple engines or independent charge systems, ensuring efficient battery management. The ACR protects your electrical system from cascading faults, providing a reliable solution to maintain battery health and performance. Its ultra-low power draw prevents battery depletion even during extended downtime, making it an essential component for any marine electrical system.
Key Features and Benefits
- Ultra-Low Power Draw: Minimizes battery depletion with a power draw of only 1.3 mA, significantly lower than typical ACRs.
- Robust Construction: Sealed unit with stainless steel hardware and high-temperature materials for durability and reliability.
- Easy Installation: Integrated sealed plug and Deutsch/Amphenol DTM connector harness simplify installation and prevent corrosion.
- Start Assist Input: Ensures maximum cranking amps are available by allowing manual connection of batteries via a remote switch.
- Versatile Connectivity: Additional low-amp output for remote status reporting or driving a secondary relay for uncharged battery banks.

If your order is late or you need help, contact cs@qualityboatparts.com and we will assist you.
Quality Boat Parts is a reseller. Many items include a manufacturer’s warranty, and all warranty service is handled directly by the manufacturer. We do not manage or administer warranty claims on behalf of customers.
Warranty terms, coverage, and duration are set by each manufacturer. Issues involving defects, repairs, or replacements must be addressed with the manufacturer’s support team. When available, the warranty period is listed on the product page. If it is not shown, contact us or the manufacturer for details before purchasing.
To start a claim, the customer must contact the manufacturer and follow their process. Keep your proof of purchase and original packaging, and register the product if the manufacturer requires it, as these are often needed for warranty service.
