Balmar has introduced a robust Alternator Protection Module which helps protect the alternator’s diodes and internal regulator against spikes (clamping up to 60 Volt) and sustained over-voltage conditions (beginning around 20 Volt) for the 12 Volt version. The APM can absorb multiple surges of such energy, and can absorb surges in excess of 200 Amps without failure to continually protect your alternator. Visual and audible alarms indicate if the device has been compromised and needs replacement. Balmar APM devices provide intelligent, robust, solid state protection in a small, easily mounted package at the rear of the alternator between the B+ and B- terminals. Balmar APM devices can be used to protect all alternator brands.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFeatures \u0026amp; Benefits\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProvides best-in-class surge protection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExcels in both short duration and longer duration spikes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe apm can absorb multiple surges of such energy, and can absorb surges in excess of 200 amps without failure to continually protect your alternator\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVisual and audible alarms indicate if the device has been compromised and needs replacement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLimited 2 year warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProduct Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProvides best-in-class surge protection\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1 lb\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDimensions\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5 x 4 x 2 in\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBrand\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBalmar\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAPM-12\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUPC\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e676205502887\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003cstyle\u003e\n.product-faq { margin: 2rem 0; }\n.product-faq__title { font-size: 1.25rem; margin-bottom: 1rem; }\n.faq-item { border: 1px solid #ddd; border-radius: 4px; margin-bottom: 0.5rem; }\n.faq-item__question { padding: 0.75rem 1rem; font-weight: 600; cursor: pointer; }\n.faq-item__answer { padding: 0 1rem 0.75rem; }\ndetails.faq-item \u003e summary { list-style: none; }\ndetails.faq-item \u003e summary::-webkit-details-marker { display: none; }\n.related-items-table { width: 100%; border-collapse: collapse; margin: 1rem 0; }\n.related-items-table th, .related-items-table td { border: 1px solid #ddd; padding: 0.5rem; text-align: left; vertical-align: top; }\n.related-items-table th { background: #f7f7f7; }\n\u003c\/style\u003e\u003csection class=\"product-faq\" aria-label=\"Frequently asked questions\"\u003e\u003ch2 class=\"product-faq__title\"\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdetails class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\u003csummary class=\"faq-item__question\"\u003eHow do I verify fitment before ordering?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item__answer\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eCompare manufacturer part number APM-12 against your existing part and your vehicle or equipment.
