This “no arcing” feature could be crucial if you are shutting down the electrics because of a fuel leak.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Product-Pictures\/Cartek-Motorsport-Electronics\/i-H6mqv4g\/1\/fd25d14a\/M\/B61G0933-M.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/vorshlag-store.com\/collections\/driver-safety\/products\/cartek-solid-state-battery-isolator-gt\">CARTEK GT kit<\/a><\/strong> (shown above) kills the engine by taking in a fixed 12v input and sending a 12v output that would power your Ignition or ECU. When the negative side of the battery has been disconnected it will also cut the 12v output powering your Ignition or ECU – shutting down the engine. The GT kit is designed for cars with Standard (OEM) ECU\u2019s or Historic Race cars.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Product-Pictures\/Cartek-Motorsport-Electronics\/i-dXTKS2s\/0\/19cdf6b5\/M\/Untitled-1-M.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/vorshlag-store.com\/collections\/driver-safety\/products\/cartek-solid-state-battery-isolator-xr\">CARTEK XR unit<\/a><\/strong> does not have a power input or power output. Instead it sends a signal which is wired up to either a Power Distribution Module or Motorsport ECU that has an ignition switch signal input. The ECU or Power Distribution Module will then shut down when it see\u2019s this signal – which then kills the engine. This new XR unit also features a 0.5 sec time delay between transmitting the engine kill signal and disconnecting the battery allowing ECUs time to perform a shutdown sequence before electrical power is lost.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Product-Pictures\/Cartek-Motorsport-Electronics\/i-LtKL4jZ\/0\/b8464f69\/M\/GT%20ISOLATOR%20INSTALLED-M.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p>CARTEK builds these components in the UK and has a long history of quality in Motorsports electronics.
