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 18 gauge heavy wire goes to the Battery Pack (Orange to battery +. Black to battery -).
The 22 gauge thin wire goes to the E meter (Red + to terminal 4. Black - to terminal 1).
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.
