VETUS 4-Stage Battery Charger 12V 35 A

These battery chargers, especially designed for marine use, have a
four stage IUoU charge programme. In the first Bulk charge stage,
the battery receives a continuous maximum current charge. Once the
battery is recharged to approximately 75% of its full capacity, the
charger switches automatically to a constant voltage Absorption
stage for the remain. When the battery is fully charged, the
charger will maintain this charge phase for 15 minutes. (providing
the charge is under 6.25 % of the full charge current) and then
switches over to the Float. charge stage. In this stage the battery
charger maintains the full charge without overloading the battery.
It compensates for self-discharge and floats any loads on the
battery. After being in the float stage for 12 days, the charger
implements the final Reconditioning stage. In this stage the
charger will switch to the Bulk stage for 85 minutes only, to
ensure that the battery stays in optimum condition. With easy
access dipswitches, the maximum charge voltage can be adapted to
suit the type of battery being charged. These chargers are suitable
for all AC power sources from 90 V to 265 V. The active Power
Factor Correction feature takes care of any unwanted line
disturbances. Vetus battery chargers are extensively tested,
including a 2G vibration test, to meet VETUS’s quality standards
and ensure long term operation. These new chargers are compatible
with Lead Acid, Li-ion, Gel and AGM batteries, and can be connected
to a remote control panel (BCRP) and a battery temperature sensor
(BCTS). The chargers have a separate alarm contact and the fan
speed can be adjusted for comfort reasons. A trickle charger with
maximum output of 2A is provided on models BC12151, BC12252 and
BC12352. These battery chargers, especially designed for marine
