Victron Galvanic Isolator VDI-16A, 16 AMP Max Waterproof Potted [GDI000016000]

Galvanic Isolator VDI-16A, 16 AMP Max Waterproof Potted

The galvanic isolator prevents electrolytic corrosion. It blocks low-voltage DC currents that enter your boat via the shore power earth wire. These currents can cause corrosion to the boat’s underwater metals, like the hull, propeller, shaft, and so on.

The galvanic isolator consists internally of two diodes which are connected in an anti-parallel fashion. When they are connected in this way, the diodes allow current in both directions but only above a certain threshold voltage. The voltage at which diodes conduct is about 1.4 Vdc.

The isolator is installed directly behind your boat's 120V - 230V connection. The forward voltage from the galvanic isolator is higher than the potential difference between metals. As a result, this voltage will not allow conduction and as such, the galvanic isolator will prevent any electrolytic current. However, if there is a (higher) error voltage in the AC circuit, the diodes will allow current through and the residual-current device will break the circuit.

As your needs change - a child wants a new bed, or maybe a sibling arrives - the bed can keep up with the new needs.

Choose the bed you want to convert and see the conversion options in the bed converter.

We guarantee a five-year availability of the standard conversion kits for all convertible beds from the date of purchase.

Tested and approved according to safety standard EN 747-1:2012+A1:2015.

According to EN 747 loft beds and the upper bed of bunk beds are not suitable for children under 6 years due to the risk of injury from falls.

A smaller child can sleep in the lower bed of bunk beds, possibly with a bed guard for extra safety.
