Specifications Parameter Specification Model VX5A1400 Series Xantrex VX5 (Intelligent Power Management Series) System Voltage 12 Volts DC Maximum Continuous Charge Current 140 Amperes (A) Total Output (Combined output to all batteries) Maximum Input Current Typically matches or exceeds the 140A output rating. Charging Algorithm Multi-stage (Bulk, Absorption, Float) with temperature compensation (if sensor connected). Battery Type Compatibility Programmable for Flooded, AGM, and Gel Cell batteries. Isolation Method Solid-state electronic isolation. Voltage Sensing Independent sensing of each battery bank voltage. Low Battery Protection Isolates auxiliary loads if the starting battery voltage falls below a critical threshold. Status Indicators (LED) Display for Power, Charging Mode (Bulk/Absorb/Float), Battery Status, and Faults. Terminals Input: From charging source (Alternator/Charger). Output 1: To Battery 1 (e.g., Starting). Output 2: To Battery 2 (e.g., Auxiliary/House). Sensor: For optional temperature probe. Wire Size Recommendation Requires heavy-gauge cable (e.g., 1/0 AWG or 50mm² or larger) for main power connections due to high current. Mounting Surface mount in a dry, well-ventilated location. Operating Temperature Typically -20°C to +50°C (with derating above 40°C). Environmental Protection Enclosed design suitable for engine compartments or dry electrical bays. Compliance Meets relevant marine (ABYC) and automotive standards. May have CE, cULus marks.
