ARCO Zeus Regulator

ARCO’s Zeus is the only high-energy alternator regulator to feature Bluetooth and a native app (on IOS and Android) allowing for easy installation and configuration. With its intuitive interface, you have access to information on your system that you never had before. This information allows you to regulate your system and optimize your battery charge and alternator output resulting in a safer experience while protecting your energy system investment. Through the ARCO Zeus application, you are in good hands as your data can be logged and then shared with your technician to troubleshoot system problems when remote.
Zeus optimizes battery charges for 12-48 volt systems. Whether you are using Lithium (LiFePo4) batteries to lead-acid Deep Cycle batteries, Zeus has you covered with its pre-set battery libraries and configurable menus to optimize your charging profiles. Zeus manages a complex set of inputs by giving you easy-to?understand options.
Zeus also takes into consideration the power of your engine and allows you to configure the alternator’s power take off from the engine by managing the field, or duty. An advanced feature of Zeus is that it can turn your engine into a dedicated generator with a press of the button, whereby it focuses the alternator’s performance to the creation of energy in replenishing your battery bank quickly.
Consistent with Zeus’s ease of use, Zeus is the only alternator regulator on the market that comes with alternator/battery harnesses and 2 thermistor harnesses, without an additional charge, saving users money and time from sourcing harnesses.
