    Balmar's patented ARS-5 Voltage Regulators provide a dynamic method for monitoring battery condition and apply the correct level of alternator control (voltage and current) to ensure that your batteries are charged quickly and safely. During engine operation, Balmar regulators progress through the following stages to ensure proper battery charging: Stage 1: Start Delay: After engine startup, the regulator waits for several seconds before applying field current to the alternator. This allows the engine and belts an opportunity to warm up before the alternator load is applied. Stage 2: Soft Ramp: The regulator slowly increases field excitation of the alternator to reduce belt stress. Stage 3: Bulk Charging: The regulator increases field output to the maximum safe level, allowing the alternator to reach maximum amperage output based on the target limits of the battery type being charged. Target voltage ranges from 14.1V to 14.6V depending on the battery type selected (24V bulk charging voltages range from 28.2V to 29.2V).

    • User-Selectable Preset Battery Programs: Balmar provides multiple charge profiles to ensure optimal charging, Simply select the battery program that matches your battery technology
    • Advanced Programming Modes. Balmar multi-stage regulators feature a broad range of advanced regulator adjustments
    • Alternator and Battery Temperature Sensing and Control. Balmar multi-stage regulators have the ability to automatically correct charging output
    • Belt Load Management. Balmar multi-stage regulators can protect the engine and belt by enabling the user to de-rate the alternator's output in small increments by adjusting the Belt Load Manager
    • If battery temperatures exceed safe operating levels, ARS-5 Voltage Regulators will automatically reduce charging outputs to avoid dangerous thermal runaway conditions

    “I can’t say enough about Thomas P.’s generosity and time. We were having issues with our watermaker across the country in Nova Scotia. Thomas jumped on a video call, ran tests with me, and helped diagnose the issue quickly before our big trip to Newfoundland.”
