| Link 10 High Voltage E Meter Adapter |
E meter Adapter Description:
This sealed High Voltage Adapter allows the Link 10
series of E meters to work with battery pack voltages
greater than 50V and less than 450V. It works with
both Cruising Equipment and Xantrex brand E meters.
This low cost solution provides accurate voltage
scaling, with overvoltage protection and noise filtering
for the E meter.
To configure the E meter for higher voltages, use the
Sel, Set, F13 settings and select 002 (See E meter
manual).
The voltage on the E meter display will be decimal
shifted and internally scaled to read the battery voltage
correctly. Other E meter settings may require
adjustment, like battery full voltage and alarm settings
(if applicable).
The photos on the right show test results with both
Link 10 brand E meters.
Self Adhesive tape on the protective case allows
simple mounting. Clean off a 1" x 1" flat area that will
serve as a mount, then peel and stick the case to the
cleaned surface.
Installation is as follows:
The BPAK side of the Adapter: Orange (+) wire to
battery (+). Black (-) wire to shunt load side, not
battery (-).
The L-10 side of the Adapter: Red (+) wire goes to
the E meter terminal 4. Black (-) to terminal 1. These
instructions are also in the Link 10 Manual.
Standard wire length is 30" for the Battery pack, 15"
for the E meter) Optional lengths available at the time
of order.
Twisted pair is recommended to improve noise
immunity.
