Victron Energy Cyrix-ct battery combiner – intelligent battery separator 12/24V with microprocessor control
Smart battery separator
The Victron Energy Cyrix-ct battery combiner automatically connects batteries in parallel when one is being charged and disconnects them when charging stops. Its microprocessor-controlled system ensures reliable operation at all times.
No voltage loss
Unlike diode bridges, the Cyrix-ct causes virtually no voltage drop, ensuring efficient charging without additional load on the alternator or charger.
Charge multiple batteries
With this battery separator, multiple batteries can be charged from a single alternator or charger. The starter battery remains fully charged, while service or accessory batteries are charged in parallel once the correct voltage is detected.
Bidirectional function
The Cyrix-ct monitors voltage in both directions, enabling parallel charging even when the service battery is charged by an external charger. In emergency situations, the relay can be manually engaged to connect batteries – useful with a flat or damaged starter battery.
