Split Charge Relay Clicking

I have a cbe charger system and solar panel control i have fitted a lifos lithium leisure battery and reset the solar panel to gel battery at 14 4 volts and the main charger too the lifos engineer said the optimum charging voltage is 14 3 the problem i have is the cbe split charge relay starts click on and off continues when leisure battery is fully charged with no electric hook up on only.

Split charge relay clicking.

I have fitted a 150w solar panel and smartsolar controller mppt 75 15 to the leisure battery. Battery chargers maintainers. To find out the source of the problem you ll need to run some quick tests using a multimeter. This system uses a heavy duty version of a simple make and break relay the coil of which is energised by a signal that is only 12v when the engine is running usually the charge signal wire from the alternator.

How does a 12 volt relay work. A 12 volt relay often called a manual split charge relay is an electronic device that uses an electromagnet to pull a set of contacts that make or break a circuit. Both voltage sensitive relay and split charge relay are used to manage batteries in a dual battery system which usually consist of a main battery and an auxiliary battery. Typically split charge relay is controlled by the ignition wire so that when the engine is running ignition is on the split charge relay will close and connect both.

The charging system uses a heavy duty voltage sensitive relay vsr which is connected between the 2 batteries the cab battery being the voltage sensing battery with the engine running the voltage on the cab battery rises to 13 4v the relay switches connecting the 2 batteries together for charging the relay is supposed to switch off when. Dc dc b2b charging kits 12 volt. A 12 volt relay is the same type of relay that you would find in many 12 volt electrical systems. My problem is that the split charge relay constantly clicks and only stops when i.

Voltage sensitive charging relays. Clicking noise in your car s fuse box is caused by a relay that is turning on and off rapidly this can be caused by a computer failure resistance in the ground wire for the control side of the relay or high resistance in the power supply to the control side of the relay.
