| Parameter | Specification |
|---|---|
| System Voltage | 24V DC – Compatible with standard heavy-duty truck electrical systems |
| Rated Current | Up to 500A continuous load (typical); capable of handling high inrush currents during engine cranking |
| Peak Withstand Current | Can endure short-term surge loads (e.g., starter motor draw: 800–1200A) without damage |
| Contact Material | High-purity copper alloy for low resistance and minimal voltage drop |
| Housing Material | High-strength, impact-resistant ABS plastic – flame-retardant and resistant to oil, vibration, and weather exposure |
| Terminal Size | Dual M8 or M10 threaded studs (battery side and chassis/load side) for secure cable connections |
| Protection Rating | Typically IP65 or higher – dust-tight and protected against water jets |
| Operating Temperature Range | -40°C to +85°C (-40°F to +185°F) |
| Weight | Approx. 0.8–1.2 kg |
| Note | Description |
|---|---|
| ✅ Use for Safety & Long-Term Parking | Engage the switch when performing maintenance, storing the vehicle for weeks/months, or in emergency situations to eliminate live circuit risks. |
| Inspect Regularly | During routine service (every 10,000–20,000 km), check: • Terminal tightness • Signs of arcing, discoloration, or melting • Corrosion on contacts or cables |
| Tighten Connections Periodically | Vibration can loosen high-current terminals over time — retorque as needed. |
| ❌ Do Not Use as Ignition Switch | This is not intended for daily ON/OFF cycling during normal operation. Frequent use may accelerate wear. |
| Listen for Abnormal Sounds | A "click" upon turning ON is normal; buzzing, sparking, or sizzling indicates loose connection or internal failure — replace immediately. |
| Prevent Parasitic Drain | Even small leaks (e.g., GPS trackers, ECUs) can drain batteries over time. The master switch eliminates this risk entirely. |
| Fire Prevention Role | In case of collision or electrical fault, cutting power via this switch reduces fire hazard sign |
