The BCA1505 battery charger provides up to 1350 watts to charge a 12 24, 36, 48 or 72 Volt battery system (2 bank) 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-quiet operation. Multiple stages of filtering reduce radiated or conducted noise to very low levels. Extra features include visual indicators for low input voltage, charging and over-temperature.

Safety features include both charger and battery over-temperature shutdown, current limiting, short circuit protection with automatic recovery, input undervoltage shutdown and output over-voltage crowbar.

Optional features include a 3-Bank Load Splitter. We are confident that you will get many years of reliable service from this AC Battery Charger.
