Expert Reply:
Hey Trevor! Yes, the PowerMax converter # PM84VR 100 amp is a direct replacement for the older WFCO WF-68100 converter. Both are standalone 100-amp converters, not integrated in a power center, and they fill the same role in the electrical system.
The # PM84VR will convert shore/generator AC power to 12V DC, supply your DC loads through the fuse panel, and charge the battery bank just like the WFCO did. It’s not meant to replace a converter that’s built into a power center, but for standalone units like the WF-68100, it’s a correct swap.
If you can confirm how many batteries you’re charging, I can double check if this is the appropriate amperage to continue with.
