Device type
Diode battery isolator (3 batteries, with alternator energize input)Documented claim
Conditions

The manual prints the series as battery isolators with a voltage compensating diode and alternator energize input, using Schottky diodes (about 0,3 V drop at low current, about 0,45 V at the rated output); the datasheet prints 3 batteries and "yes" for the alternator energize input in the 140-3AC column.
