Intellitec Launches the B.I.R.D.

Intellitec

The company says the B.I.R.D. is "the most complete solution to linking batteries for charging or additional starting power."

DeLand, Fla.-based Intellitec Products has introduced the Integrated RV-C based Bi-directional Isolation Relay Disconnect – the B.I.R.D. The new product monitors the voltage of two battery sources and automatically links them when charging is available and required. Based on the new Battery Guard 1000 platform, Intellitec can provide a complete battery management system with RV-C communications.

Ned Schiff, President of Intellitec Products, said, “The B.I.R.D. RV-C provides the most complete solution to linking batteries for charging or additional starting power. It is very economical and easy to install. Utilizing our proven latching relay, the B.I.R.D. only draws power when changing state, making it a ‘green’ product, as compared to the continuous duty solenoids frequently used in this application which drain unnecessary power from the batteries and generate excessive heat.”

Adds Austin Ciambriello, engineering manager at Intellitec, “Other battery isolator products charge for a fixed time before disconnecting, not knowing if they have fully charged the second battery. We’ve designed an algorithm that utilizes current monitoring and voltage which enable us to fully charge the second battery.”

“It is a very exciting time to be part of Intellitec and our industry.” said Schiff. “The additional intelligence and functionality we are adding to our products provides tremendous value to our customers.”
