DP10 Low Voltage Disconnect
The DP10 is a low voltage disconnect. It is designed to disconnect a load from your battery when the battery voltage becomes so low that further discharging it may cause damage to either the battery or the equipment using the battery. Versions are available with audible and visual alarms that will provide a warning before the load is disconnected. An extended temperature range version is also available.
