• The regulator should be installed as close as possible to the battery/s. • Ensure that any non-Redarc Anderson™ plug terminals are soldered correctly or crimped with the correct Anderson™ crimping tool. • Always check the manufacturer’s data for your battery and ensure that the ‘Maximum’ voltage of the charging profi...
Fuse protection is required for wire and component protection in case of short circuit. Fuses are to be fi tted as close as possible to the battery positive terminal. REDARC recommend using MIDI style bolt down fuses as they ensure a low resistance connection. The REDARC FK40 and FK60 fuse kits are recommended.
ACCESSORIES 3.3.1 SRPA-RM The SRPA-RM is an optional Remote Monitor for use with REDARC SRPA0120, SRPA0240 and SRPA0360 regulators. The SRPA-RM is required to change the charging profi le on the Regulator. By Default SRPA0120, SRPA0240 and SRPA0360 Regulators are set to AGM.
