The model BCD1000 Battery Charger charges either 12V, 24V or 48V batteries from a 110, 220 or 300VDC power source. Other battery voltages up to 72 volts are also available by special order.

The all-new Current Mode switching design offers increased power and reliability in a compact package. 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, output short circuit shutdown with automatic recovery and an equalize charge mode. The output voltage is easily adjusted 1.0 volts above or below the standard output voltage to accommodate special charging requirements.

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.
