Blue Power Battery Charger IP 20

Universal input: 90-265 VAC or 90-350 VDC

The charger will operate on whatever supply is available.

Adaptive 4-stage charge characteristic: bulk – absorption – float – storage

The Blue Power charger features a microprocessor controlled ‘adaptive’ battery management. The ‘adaptive’ feature will automatically optimise the charging process relative to the way the battery is being used.

Less maintenance and aging when the battery is not in use: the Storage Mode

The storage mode kicks in whenever the battery has not been subjected to discharge during 24 hours. In the storage mode float voltage is reduced to 2,2 V/cell (13,2 V for a 12 V battery) to minimise gassing and corrosion of the positive plates. Once a week the voltage is raised back to the absorption level to ‘equalize’ the battery. This feature prevents stratification of the electrolyte and sulphation, a major cause of early battery failure.

Protected against overheating and silent fan cooling

Output current will reduce as temperature increases up to 60°C, but the Blue Power charger will not fail. The load and temperature controlled fan is practically inaudible

Two LED’s for status indication

Yellow LED: bulk charge (blinking fast), absorption (blinking slow), float (solid) Green LED: power on
