DESCRIPTION
Victron Galvanic Isolator VDI-16 – GDI000016000
The Victron Galvanic Isolator VDI-16 is an essential component for ensuring electrical safety and protection in marine environments. Its primary purpose is to prevent stray currents from interfering with sensitive electronics while maintaining a secure ground connection. With a maximum current rating of 16 A and excellent heat dissipation features, this isolator offers a reliable and efficient solution for your vessel’s electrical system.
Product Features
Robust Design
The Victron Energy GDI000016000 features an encapsulated design that provides waterproof protection, ensuring dependable performance even in challenging marine conditions.
Optimal Cooling Efficiencies
This isolator must be mounted vertically, allowing maximum airflow around the unit. Under normal conditions, the temperature increase is capped at 20 °C, helping maintain its longevity and effectiveness.
High Current Handling
Designed to manage a peak current of 1600 A for 20 milliseconds, the VDI-16 ensures that your electrical systems stay protected from surges and faults.
Local Regulation Compliance
All connections and safety measures can be executed in accordance with local regulations, making installation straightforward and compliant, thereby enhancing safety for all users.
Lightweight and Compact
Weighing only 1 kg and featuring compact dimensions, the Victron Galvanic Isolator VDI-16 is an easy-to-handle solution that minimizes installation space requirements without compromising performance.
How It Works
The Victron Galvanic Isolator functions by being wired into the green grounding cable of the vessel. This setup prevents other ground connections from bypassing the isolator, ensuring that stray current is effectively blocked while allowing for safe grounding.
Installation Process
The installation process involves connecting the isolator to the dedicated green safety ground before securing any other grounding connections, to maintain its operational integrity.
Ventilation Requirements
Proper installation requires a well-ventilated area with a minimum of 10 cm of space around the unit to promote adequate cooling and safety during operation.
Conformance to Standards
Each component and connection must comply with local electrical regulations, which reassures users of the safety and reliability of their installation.
