The model BCD615 Battery Charger charges either 12V, 24V or 48V
batteries from a 24V, 48V or 72VDC power source. Other battery voltages
up to 56 volts are also available by special order.
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.
The output voltage is easily adjusted 1.0 volts above or below the
standard output voltage to accommodate special charging require-ments.
Optional features include a Digital Volt/Ammeter, Remote Control Panel,
and/or 19” Rackmounting. We are confident that you will get many years
of reliable service from this DC Battery Charger.
