Mastervolt 83304002 – Charge Mate Pro 40 (12/24 V, 40 A, Smart Electronic Battery Combiner, IP65)
The Mastervolt Charge Mate Pro 40 (83304002) is a high-efficiency, current-limited battery combiner that enables controlled dual-battery charging from a single source such as a charger or alternator. It connects a starter and service battery during charging and isolates them during discharge. This prioritizes the starter battery while allowing safe, limited charging of auxiliary systems.
Unlike mechanical relays, the Charge Mate Pro 40 electronically limits charge current to 40 A for the secondary battery and blocks reverse current at all times—even when the secondary voltage exceeds the primary. This prevents power dips and enhances system stability, especially in bow thruster or auxiliary loads. The rugged IP65 housing and integrated heat sinks ensure reliable operation in harsh environments.
