INTRODUCTION
The Model 091-139-2-12 AUTO ISOLATOR I system is a lossless isolator
replacement for the conventional diode isolator. Designed to be installed in a
vehicle with one or more Main batteries that must be isolated from one or more
auxiliary batteries. The system consists of a voltage detector and controller
Model 091-139-CONT-12 and a separate 200-ampere rated solenoid, Model
091-139-SOL-12HO for switching the batteries. In addition to maintaining battery
isolation the AUTO ISOLATOR I may parallel the batteries on engine starting if
the auxiliary battery has sufficient charge to assist in the cranking. A block
diagram of the system appears in figure 1.

SYSTEM OPERATION
The system receives its power from the ignition switch. With the switch “OFF” all
the power is removed from the system and the solenoid is deenergized.
As soon as the operator turns the ignition “ON”, the system is powered and
detects the voltage of the main and auxiliary batteries. If the auxiliary battery
voltage is 12.4 volts or greater, (indicating sufficient charge) cranking the engine
will cause the paralleling solenoid to be energized. A 10-second timer will
maintain the paralleling solenoid if the engine doesn’t start immediately and must
be cranked a second time. When the engine starts the alternator output raises
the battery voltage. This increase in voltage is detected and the paralleling
solenoid is held energized charging both batteries.
If when the engine is started the auxiliary battery voltage is below 12.0 volts the
paralleling solenoid is not energized while cranking. As soon as the engine
starts, the alternator raises the main battery voltage and the solenoid is
energized charging both batteries.
Upon engine shutdown the ignition switch is placed in the “OFF” position. Power
is removed from the Auto Isolator and the solenoid is deenergized.
INSTALLATION
Install the 091-139-CONT-12 Controller is a suitable location protected from the
weather and engine heat. The 091-139-SOL-12HO Solenoid may be mounted in
the engine compartment or at a location to minimize the length of the battery
cables. Install wiring per figure 2.

CALIBRATION
The voltage setpoints may be altered in the field to suit particular customer
requirements. Adjustments are provided to adjust the main battery voltage at
which the paralleling solenoid is energized. An additional adjustment permits
adjusting the voltage below which the auxiliary battery will not be paralleled for
starting boost.
