Monitors

 

Why are they so popular?

Mariners appreciate the splash-proof front and that all circuit boards are conformal coated to protect against the harsh marine environment. Bass fishermen, using electric trolling motors, love the time remaining function ("fishing time") and the "rain drain" in the bezel so there's no puddle on the meter.

Alternative Energy users employ the optional Low Battery Contact Line to bring renewable charging sources like hydro, wind, and photovoltaic, on line. The "gas gauge" provides battery status at a glance

Link 10^(tm)

 The world's most popular battery state-of-charge meter

We call the E-Meter !he Ultimate Battery Monitor because there is nothing available at a competitive price that has the E-Meter's power, precision, ease of installation, and simple user interface. You can display volts, amps, amp-hours, or Time of Operation Remaining. You may select automatic or smart sleep modes and scanning. The E-Meter also measures and reports kilowatt-hours and historical battery information such as: number of cycles, deepest discharge, and average depth of discharge. It automatically learns and displays Charging Efficiency. The E-Meter is so revolutionary that US patents have been issued covering the software, electronics, and even the enclosure.

Link 20^(tm)

 

 The Link 20 does virtually everything the E-Meter does, but gives you the capability of monitoring 2 battery banks.

You can monitor a House bank and your Starting bank, or you can monitor two House banks. The "Look and Feel" of the Link 20 is similar to the E-Meter, it's programmed the same way and its operating specs are the same. So essentially you get the same power, precision, ease of installation and simple user interface.

You can display volts, amps, amp-hours, or Time of Operation Remaining. You may select automatic or smart sleep modes and scanning. The Link 20 also measures and reports kilowatt-hours and historical battery information such as: number of cycles, deepest discharge, and average depth of discharge. It automatically learns and displays Charging Efficiency. On the display, each battery bank has its own battery state "Fuel Gauge" LEDs so you can read a basic state of charge status with just a glance.

Link 1000(tm)

 

 The Link 1000 does virtually everything the E-Meter does, but gives you the capability of controlling the Heart Interface Freedom Inverter/Chargers.

You can monitor a House bank and your Starting bank, or you can monitor two House banks. The "Look and Feel" of the Link 1000 is similar to the E-Meter, it's programmed the same way and its operating specs are the same. So essentially you get the same power, precision, ease of installation and simple user interface.

The Link 1000 also measures and reports kilowatt-hours and historical battery information such as: number of cycles, deepest discharge, and average depth of discharge. It automatically learns and displays Charging Efficiency. On the display, each battery bank has its own battery state "Fuel Gauge" LEDs so you can read a basic state of charge status with just a glance.

You can program 4 different battery types (Wet, 2 characteristics for Gel and AGM), battery temperature, AC Power Sharing and Inverter Idle mode. Those capabilities allow the user to ensure the Freedom Inverter/Charger operate according to the users particular installation. The Link will also tell you which mode the charger is in from the front panel LEDs. For extended battery life you can Equalize the batteries from the Link 1000 at the press of a few buttons.

Link 2000

 

 The Link 2000 is a state of the art DC system monitor and Inverter/Charger controller. Our engineers collaborated with Heart Interface to develop this system. It will monitor 2 battery banks giving you Volts, Amps, Amp Hours, Time remaining in the bank at the present discharge rate. It will also calculate the efficiency of the battery banks to help you get an idea as to the overall health of the batteries.

The Link and the Heart Interface Freedom line of Inverter/Chargers communicate with each other through a standard 4-conductor telephone cable. Once connected, you can program your Freedom for Battery Type (Wet, Gel, AGM), Battery Temperature, Charger's Power Sharing and Inverter's Idle Mode Sensitivity. The Freedom will also pass information up to the Link to be displayed such as Error Codes and Charger Status at the bottom of the display. You can also remotely turn the Inverter and Charger on/off by pressing the respective button on the left of the panel.

Link 2000R 

 

  The Link 2000R is a special version of the Link 2000.

 This product can not only monitor both battery banks and control a Heart Freedom Inverter/Charger, but will also turn your alternator into a smart charger.

The system comes with several other easy to install modules and a basic wiring harness. The system knows when your engine is on and will start regulating the alternator using the same 3 charge stages that the Freedom uses. This enables you to ensure you always have batteries that are being treated right while you are motoring. Your stock alternator probably uses charges your batteries at a constant voltage around 13.8-14.1 Volts. Constantly charging at that voltage will degrade the life expectancy of your Deep Cycle batteries.
