Newmar Galvanic Isolator 60A Failsafe – GI-60FS
The Newmar Galvanic Isolator 60A Failsafe (GI-60FS) is an essential component for boat owners seeking to protect their vessel’s metal components from galvanic corrosion while maintaining critical safety standards. Designed for installation between the AC safety ground and the DC bonding system, the isolator effectively blocks low-voltage currents that lead to electrochemical damage in saltwater environments. This significantly reduces the deterioration of sacrificial zinc anodes, leading to cost savings on replacements and haul-outs. Engineered with a fail-safe design, it ensures that the safety ground path remains intact even in the event of failure. Additionally, a built-in capacitor provides a secondary low-impedance path to direct AC currents safely to the ground. Certified to meet the stringent ABYC A-28 2019 standards, this unit delivers a robust and reliable galvanic protection solution.
Key Features:
- Corrosion Protection: Effectively blocks galvanic currents to extend the life of sacrificial zinc anodes.
- Fail-Safe Design: Ensures continued grounding integrity even if the isolator fails.
- High Safety Standards: Certified to UL1500 Ignition Protection, ensuring safety in marine environments.
- Temperature Resilient: Tested for operation in environments up to 50°C ambient temperature.
- Versatile Compatibility: Suitable for cruisers, sailboats, and yachts with 115–230V shore power systems.
By incorporating this advanced galvanic isolator, boat owners can maintain a safe and corrosion-resistant electrical system. The Newmar GI-60FS offers peace of mind by providing continuous protection and compliance with the latest marine safety regulations.
