IBI Series Manual

Introduction
Analytic Systems introduces the updated IBI2/3 series of battery isolators, allowing you to
charge 2 bank and 3 bank battery systems all from a single alternator. Ideal for automotive, naval
or trucking purposes, the IBI also isolates the battery banks using Analytic Systems’ Ideal Diode
technology preventing a discharged bank from draining a charged one.
Ideal Diode technology uses MOSFET transistors and control circuitry in place of the diode
used in traditional battery isolators. By doing so, the IBI is able to operate with a fraction of
voltage drop found in diode-based battery isolators. At its maximum rated current of 280A the
voltage drop is a miniscule 16mV; essentially zero at low currents. This way, all the power of
your alternator is applied to the batteries ensuring a full recharge every time.
Always innovating, the new redesign of the IBI contains two new features: A Grounding LED,
a green LED indicator which quickly shows you if the IBI has been correctly grounded and the
Ignition Connection, a quick connect which applies voltage on the alternator if necessary to
begin charging.
The IBI is available in two models, the IBI2 for 2 battery banks and the IBI3 for 3 battery banks.
The IBI1, a custom high-current single battery bank isolator is also available on order.
