Features
• Automatically combines batteries during charging, isolates batteries when discharging
and when starting engines
• Allows temporary isolation of house loads from engine circuit during engine cranking to protect
sensitive electronics—start isolation indicated by blinking LED
• Supports high-output alternators up to 120 Amps
• Ignition protected—safe for installation aboard gasoline powered boats
• LED light is ON when batteries are combined
• Under voltage lockout—will not close when the lower battery is below 9.5V @ 12V System
or 19V @ 24V System—lockout indicated by blinking LED
• Waterproof rated IP67----temporary immersion for 30 minutes
• For 12 or 24 volt systems
• Dual Sensing—senses charge source on either battery bank

Installation Instructions
Mounting
• To avoid corrosion to connecting wires and terminals, mount in a dry and protected location
if possible. Avoid locations directly above the battery banks.
Electrical Connections
• The wiring diagrams illustrated on the back page represent common installations and are not meant to
beaguideforwiringaspecicvessel.
• The 7610 ACR is not intended to carry starting currents. Use a battery switching system with a
combine batteries/parallel function if batteries may need to be combined for emergency starting.
Caution: Disconnect battery connections before beginning the installation.
Use the wire sizing chart below to select the appropriate wire sizes to prevent overheating the ACR.

Charging Amps Minimum Wire Size* Fuse Rating
≤60 #6 75-90A
≤80 #4 100-125A
≤100 #2 150A
≤120 #1 175A
Voltage Sensing
• The 7610 ACR will sense charging sources available on either battery bank.
Minimum connections for operation:
• Connect one battery bank to stud terminal A.
• Connect the other battery bank to stud terminal B.
• Connect the quick connect terminal marked GND (ground) to the DC system ground through

1. Start Isolation (SI) Wire
• The7610ACRcanbeconguredtoautomaticallydisconnectwhenthestartingcircuitisengaged.
Enable this feature to isolate the start circuit from the house circuits and prevent starting currents from
owingthroughtheACRorstartingcurrenttransientsfrominterferingwithloadsonotherbatteries.
The reaction time of the 7610 ACR is fast enough to disconnect the battery banks before the
starting current rises in the starting circuit.
2. Remote indicator lamp – mirrors “COMBINED” LED on unit.
Appropriate 12/24V LEDs include Blue Sea Systems PNs 8033 (amber), 8171 (red), or 8172 (green).
To connect a remote LED indicator:
• Connect the red wire of the LED to a 12/24V positive source through a one to two amp in-line fuse.
• Connect the yellow wire of the LED to the quick connect terminal marked LED.
Open/Close Cycling
• Ifyourelectricalsystemisconguredwithachargingsourcethatcannotsupplythefullloadcurrent
being drawn from the receiving batteries, an open/close cycling process can occur. If this cycling
continues, the second battery bank could eventually discharge even though a charge source
is present.
Optional connections:
* Larger wire sizes may be
required to minimize voltage
drop in long wire runs.
For more information please
use the Circuit Wizard at
www.circuitwizard.bluesea.com.
To enable start isolation:
• Connect a wire from the quick connect terminal marked SI (starting isolation) to the
terminal or wire running from the start key switch to the starter solenoid. Make this
connection through an in-line fuse of one to ten amps. This connection can be made at the
start key switch or at the starter solenoid, but must be to the line that is positive only when
cranking. Connection to a line that is positive while the engine is normally running will
prevent the charging relay from working properly.
