The BCD315 battery charger provides up to 300 watts to charge a 12 or
24 or 48 Volt battery system (1, 2 or 3 Banks) from a 24V, 48V or
72VDC source. The batteries must share a common ground but the
source can be on a different positive or negative ground.
The all-new Current Mode switching design offers increased power and
reliability in a compact package. The low ripple charging profile and
standard equalize cycle greatly increases the lifetime of expensive
battery systems. Extra input and output filtering reduce EMI to
extremely low levels. Reliability features include an input fuse, thermal
shutdown, current limiting, reverse battery hookup protection and output
short circuit shutdown with automatic recovery.
Optional features include a Digital Volt/Ammeter, 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 DC Battery
