Can I use a Low Voltage Disconnect on a switch panel ACC connection to protect my battery?

I have a switch panel that I want to be hot all the time so that the connected items can be used with the Gladiator shut off.

If I were to run the ACC connection wire for the switch panel through a low voltage disconnect to a battery connection instead of to a switched fuse, would the low voltage disconnect shut off the switch panel when it detects low voltage and protect my battery?

Installation space is limited and I have a 30A LVD that will fit on the power panel I am building. The switch panel itself is rated at 60A but a larger LVD that would go inline on the power cable for the full 60A won't fit my panel space. The ACC connection on the switch panel is fused at 5 amps which would allow my smaller 30A LVD to be installed and still protect my battery if my plan above can work.
