Product catalog summary

Description
The E-MAAX PRO Regulator optimizes alternator output based on system load, battery type, state of charge, and current and voltage sensing. It supports various battery types including Lead Acid, AGM, Gel, FireFly, Custom-LiFePO4, and LiFePO4 MAAX in both 12 and 24 Volt configurations. The device features two LEDs for status indication and fault diagnostics.

Specifications

Weight: 200 grams
Housing Material: PVC
Operating Range: -20 to +100°C
Protection: IP 56
Maximum Shock: 3 G
Maximum Humidity: 95%

Electrical Specifications

DC Supply Voltage: 6-40 Volts
Current Consumption: 0.030 Amps
Maximum Field Current: 8 Amps
Power Cable: 14 AWG, tinned copper, PVC insulator
Communications: RS-485

Functions
The regulator controls alternator output by adjusting the "Field" input. It supports peripherals like temperature and current sensors, which can be hot-plugged. The regulator automatically detects and acquires data from these peripherals.

Visual Indication
The device has two LED indicators. The left LED indicates status when ignition is inactive, while the right LED indicates status during regulation. Various lighting sequences indicate different operational stages and fault conditions.

Charging Stages and Supported Chemistries
The regulator supports Lead-acid, AGM, Gel, Carbon Foam, Lithium MAAX LiFePO4, and Lithium chemistries. It manages charging through stages: Warm-up, Bulk + Absorb, and Float.

Field Reduction and Warning Conditions
The Com Module PLUS can reduce Field Output to divert engine power. Warning conditions reduce Field Output to 50% due to high temperatures or low RPM. Critical Fault conditions restrict output to 10% to prevent damage.

CSR Regulation Mode
CSR is a fail-safe mode based on battery voltage, indicated by a blue LED flash.

E-MAAX PRO Regulator Datasheet Field reduction: Com Module PLUS, when connected to the regulator, allows reduction of the regulator’s Field Output to divert engine power from generating electricity to rotating the propellers if needed. Com Module PLUS reduces Field Output in 10% increments, down to 30% of its nominal value for the current charging conditions. Field reduction is indicated by the right LED flashing red once and is re-set automatically when the ignition is switched off. Warning condition: Warning condition is a special mode of regulation when the Field Outputs are reduced to 50%...
