NMEA2000 N2K Power Isolator 010-11580-00 M12 Micro-Change Male to Female Adapter

Description

Introduction:

The M12 Micro-Change Male to Female Adapter is a power isolator specifically designed for marine electronic systems. It features a 5-pin M12 connector configuration, typically for Data+, Data-, +V, -V, and GND. Notably, the power isolator does not connect the +V, and -V pins, which means it only allows data signals to pass through while blocking the power lines. It is widely used to isolate power interference within NMEA2000 networks, ensuring stable and reliable data transmission by preventing electrical noise from influencing signal integrity. Premier Cable P/N: PCM-0723

Specification:

Features:

1. Power Isolation: The NMEA2000 N2K Power Isolator 010-11580-00 M12 Micro-Change Male to Female Adapter can ensure stable data transmission by isolating power noise from the main power supply in NMEA2000 networks.
2. Equipment Protection: It provides equipment protection by isolating the power supply, preventing power issues from damaging other electronic equipment on the boat, and avoiding interference or fluctuations that could affect sensitive devices.
3. Wide Compatibility: Compatible with various NMEA2000 devices and marine electronic systems, ensuring seamless integration across different equipment.
4. Enhanced Signal Quality: Improves signal quality by isolating electrical noise and power fluctuations, ensuring clear and reliable data transmission in NMEA2000 networks.

How to Install NMEA2000 Power Insolator:

Choose Installation Location:

1. Please select a convenient location for the power isolator where it can be easily integrated into the NMEA 2000 network and ensure the location is protected from water and corrosion.

Turn Off Power:

1. Pls turn off the power from the NMEA 2000 network to prevent any electrical hazards or damage during installation.

Prepare the Cables:

1. Data Lines: Pls identify the data cables from the NMEA 2000 network, typically including Data+ and Data- lines.
2. Power Lines: Pls find the power cables. Most NMEA 2000 power isolators do not connect the power lines (+V and -V) but some may have these ports for mechanical reasons.
3. Ground Line: Please determine the ground cable (GND) that needs to be connected.

Connect Cables:

1. Connect the Data Lines: Please connect the data lines (Data+ and Data-) to the corresponding input terminals on the power isolator. Ensure that these connections are secure and properly aligned.
2. Handle Power Lines: Generally, power isolators do not connect the +V and -V power lines. Confirm that the power isolator you are using is designed not to connect these lines. If it’s the case, make sure these terminals remain unconnected.
3. Connect the Ground Line: Pls connect the ground line (GND) from the NMEA 2000 network to the ground terminal on the power isolator.

Secure the Isolator:

1. Mount or secure the power isolator in the chosen location. Ensure it is stable and protected from movement, water, and other environmental factors.

Reconnect Power:

1. After all connections are made, reconnect the power to the NMEA 2000 network.

Test the System:

1. Please verify that all NMEA 2000 devices are functioning correctly and that the network is communicating properly. Meanwhile, pls check for any signs of interference or data loss.

Verify and Document:

1. Please confirm that the isolator is working as expected and document the installation details for future reference, such as the installation location, cable connections, and any other relevant information.
