Operating instructions

Blue Sea Systems 7635 is a Low Voltage Disconnect (LVD) device that helps to preserve battery life and prevent starting issues by automatically disconnecting non-critical devices when the battery voltage drops below a preset level. The device features a Remote Control Switch that allows for manual override, temporary disconnection, and alarm silencing. The LVD also includes an alarm output for connecting an external audible warning device, providing an early indication of impending low voltage conditions.

• Status light in both m-LVD and Remote Control Switch provides visual warning of low
voltage state prior to disconnect
• Alarm output available for audible warning of low voltage state
prior to disconnect (optional alarm required)
• Remote Control Switch Functions:
Disconnect Voltage Adjustment - Sets desired disconnect voltage
Override - Temporarily delays circuit disconnect for 10 minutes
OFF - Temporarily disconnects circuits until voltage rises
Override or OFF - Silences alarm (optional alarm required)
• Includes Remote Control Switch PN 7928

• The Installation Diagram illustrated below represents a common installation and is
not meant to be a guide for wiring a specic vessel.
Caution: Disconnect battery connections before beginning the installation.
Reconnect after the installation is complete.
Use the wire sizing chart below to select the appropriate wire sizes. Consult an
ABYC certied electrician for proper fuse placement and sizing.
* Larger wire sizes may be required to minimize voltage drop in long wire runs.
For more information please use the Circuit Wizard at www.circuitwizard.bluesea.com.
