🔋 SUITS N50 BATTERY GROUP
The supplied battery-group fitment for this tray is:
N50
The battery must also remain within the stated maximum physical dimensions and maximum weight specification.
⚠️ IMPORTANT: Battery group designation alone does not guarantee fitment. Actual battery dimensions, terminal position, case design and weight must also be checked.

265mm
Maximum battery width:
174mm
Maximum battery height:
220mm
Maximum overall battery size:

⚖️ MAXIMUM BATTERY WEIGHT – 18KG
The maximum battery weight for this tray is:
18kg
This weight limit is important when selecting an auxiliary battery for the installation.
⚠️ IMPORTANT: A battery that physically fits within the tray dimensions may still be unsuitable if it exceeds the 18kg maximum weight specification.
🔋 IDEAL FOR DUAL-BATTERY INSTALLATIONS
An auxiliary battery can provide a separate power source for compatible touring, camping and work accessories when incorporated into a correctly designed dual-battery system.
Depending on the selected battery and complete electrical system, an auxiliary battery may support compatible equipment such as:
- ❄️ 12V fridges and freezers
- 💡 Camp and work lighting
- 📱 USB and device charging
- 📡 Communications equipment
- 🔌 12V accessory outlets
- 🏕️ Touring and camping accessories
- ⚡ Compatible inverter systems
The Projecta tray provides the physical mounting platform for the auxiliary battery and forms one component of the complete dual-battery installation.
⚠️ IMPORTANT: The battery tray itself does not charge, isolate or electrically protect the auxiliary battery. Suitable charging equipment, cabling and circuit protection are required separately.
🛡️ HEAVY-DUTY ENGINE BAY MOUNTING
Engine-bay battery installations are exposed to heat, vibration and constant vehicle movement, making secure battery mounting particularly important.
Projecta's heavy-duty battery tray provides a dedicated mounting solution for compatible Ford Ranger and Mazda BT50 auxiliary-battery installations.
A vehicle-specific tray also provides a more integrated result than adapting a generic universal battery mounting arrangement.
🔧 VEHICLE-SPECIFIC FITMENT
The supplied product information states that Projecta's latest heavy-duty battery trays are engineered to fit specific vehicle types.
This approach is designed to avoid the inconvenience of having to modify the tray or parts of the vehicle during installation.
Benefits of a vehicle-specific tray can include:
- Purpose-designed mounting position
- Cleaner engine-bay installation
- Reduced need for fabrication
- More straightforward auxiliary-battery mounting
- Better integration with the intended vehicle layout
⚠️ IMPORTANT: Existing aftermarket equipment or previous vehicle modifications may still affect fitment. Inspect the actual mounting location before installation.
🌡️ ENGINE BAY BATTERY CONSIDERATIONS
Because this tray is designed for an engine-bay installation, the selected battery must be suitable for the environmental conditions found under the bonnet.
Engine-bay conditions can include:
- High ambient temperature
- Heat cycling
- Vehicle vibration
- Dust and contamination
- Moisture
⚠️ IMPORTANT: Lithium batteries are generally not approved for engine-bay installation. Confirm the battery manufacturer's temperature, mounting and environmental requirements before considering a lithium battery.
⚠️ IMPORTANT: The battery must also remain within the supplied 265 × 174 × 220mm maximum dimensions and 18kg maximum weight.
⚡ COMPLETE DUAL-BATTERY SYSTEM CONSIDERATIONS
A battery tray is only one component of a complete dual-battery installation.
The complete system may also require:
- 🔋 Compatible N50-size auxiliary battery
- ⚡ Suitable DC-DC charger or charging system
- 🔌 Correctly sized battery cable
- 🛡️ Appropriate fuse or circuit-breaker protection
- 🔩 Quality battery terminals and cable lugs
- 🔗 Suitable charging or isolation control
- 📍 Secure cable routing and protection
⚠️ IMPORTANT: Select the charging equipment to suit the vehicle electrical system and the chemistry and charging requirements of the auxiliary battery.
