Battery System
The BCA610 battery charger provides up to 600 watts to charge a 12, 24,
32, 48 or 72 Volt battery system (1, 2 or Optional 3 banks) from a 110 or
220VAC source. The batteries must share a common ground.
This all-new single board design incorporates state of the art switchmode
technology for unmatched efficiency and ultra-quite operation. Multiple
stages of filtering reduce radiated or conducted noise to very low levels.
Extra features include adjustable output voltage, audible and visual
indicators for low input voltage, low output voltage, over temperature and
an equalize charging cycle. Safety features include both charger and
battery over-temperature shutdown, current limiting, short circuit protection
with automatic recovery, input undervoltage shutdown, reverse battery
hook-up protection, a dry contact alarm relay output and output overvoltage
crowbar.
Opti onal features include a Digital Volt/Ammeter, 3-Bank Charging, a
Remote Control Panel, and/or a second Battery Temperature Sensor. We
are confident that you will get many years of reliable service from this AC
Battery Charger.
