When the liftgate is actuated by an external switch, the Liftgate
Protector checks the battery voltage. If the voltage is above the
pre-set level, it enables the liftgate to work. The Liftgate Protector
monitors battery level, and if it falls below the pre-set, it prevents
activation of the liftgate and (if operating switch is active) activates
an external alarm. Typical alarms would be a blinking light or buzzer.
Once the switch is deactivated, an external override switch permits
one-time use, so that liftgate can be stowed. Liftgate Protector
prevents further use of the liftgate until battery level is restored.

When batteries are overdrawn, irreversible damage can be caused,
and expensive batteries will have greatly reduced capacity or need

to be replaced. Liftgate Protector prevents excess draw-down
of batteries.
Liftgate motors are dependent on supplied voltage. When
voltage falls, they draw higher and higher current which can
readily cause burned out motors. Liftgate protector prevents
motor burnout.
No hung-up liftgates. Even if battery is low, Liftgate Protector
enables one-time override, so that liftgate can be stowed and
vehicle is not immobilized.

The FlexMod Family of Products
Common FlexMod Applications
TM
The FlexModTM family is a series of small, robust solidstate modules with two inputs (one analog and one digital)
and two solid state outputs (one 10A, one 200mA) that can
be programmed to do almost any job. Standard units listed
below are designed for specific types of applications,
although they can be set to a wide range of parameters by
dealers with programming units.

Monitors voltage and time, and is available in
two types: one load + pilot/alarm circuit; two
loads. The unit monitors ignition status, shutting
down non-critical loads when the cutoff voltage
is reached, or at the set time after the ignition
is turned off. Single output version 48541, unit

Dealer programming of units
FlexMod is a highly versatile unit that can be programmed
by dealers, to meet the customers’ specific applications.
Parameters of time, voltage, and current limits are easy
to customize, using straightforward on-screen options.
Our programming unit connects your computer directly
to a FlexMod, which can be programmed within minutes.
The system has the advantage of accessing the FlexMod
electronics via the integral connector. Unlike competitive
products, this is a straightforward non- invasive process
which does not compromise the waterproof integrity of
the unit.

Use the 48610 FlexMod LVD to protect starting power, and
save fuel (and fines!) by eliminating idling. By connecting
safety signboard (or other loads) to the LVD, the signboard
can be safely run with the engine off, without the risk of a
dead battery. By connecting the horn or external alarm to
the alarm circuit, the vehicle operator will be warned of
impending shutdown.
