Brand New Genuine CARTEK Motorsport Battery Isolator GT Kit (Red Ext. Button)
The GT Battery Isolator from CARTEK is a very small and highly reliable alternative to the traditional mechanical master-switch and has been designed to overcome all of the problems and restrictions associated with mechanical and electro/mechanical safety cut-outs.

How it Works

CARTEK Battery Isolator Switch How It Works

The CARTEK Battery Isolator GT provides two functions. The first is to disconnect the Battery from all Electrical Circuits. The second is to kill the engine.

Battery Isolation
The Battery Isolators work by being fitted in between the negative side of the battery and the chassis ( As seen above ). When the external kill button has been activated or the internal button been switched to the off state, then the Battery Isolator will disconnect the negative side of the battery from the Chassis. This means that no power can get to any of the electrical circuits as there is a break in the circuit.

CARTEK BATTERY ISOLATOR GT Engine Kill

Engine Kill
The CARTEK Battery Isolator GT 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. This will kill the engine.

Built in Protection
The CARTEK Battery Isolator GT comes with built in alternator run down protection meaning no extra wiring and no extra components.

How Is It Controlled?
The two electronic isolation circuits are controlled by microprocessors and incorporate various safety systems including over-temperature and over-current monitoring. These microprocessors also monitor the kill switches/buttons for instant activation without false triggering.

Final Overview

Motorsports most advanced Solid State Kill Switch!

Pull Cable seized? Master Switch failed during a race?

CARTEK have been producing the Solid State Battery Isolator for over 10 years now, and is now widely used by OEM Manufacturers in motorsport application.
The CARTEK Battery Isolator Systems are fully sealed and have NO moving parts meaning you can always rely on the CARTEK kits to work in the tough environments of motorsport.

CARTEK Battery Isolators provide two functions. The first is to disconnect the Battery from all Electrical Circuits. The second is to kill the engine.
The Battery Isolators work by being fitted in between the negative side of the battery and the chassis ( As seen above ). When the external kill button has been activated or the internal button been switched to the off state, then the Battery Isolator will disconnect the negative side of the battery from the Chassis. This means that no power can get to any of the electrical circuits as there is a break in the circuit.

As CARTEK Battery Isolators use ‘push to break’ external kill buttons it then allows use of two external buttons to be fitted in series. This was implemented by Ford in the Formula Ford Ecoboost series. If any of the Formula Ford cars would end up against a barrier or upside down, it then allowed a marshall to always have access to kill the engine.
