Victron Energy Centaur Charger - 12 VDC - 60AMP - 3-Bank - 120-240 VAC - CCH012060000 - CW82831

Victron Energy Centaur Charger - 12 VDC - 60AMP - 3-Bank - 120-240 VAC - CCH012060000 - CW82831

The Centaur Charger delivers uncompromising quality and durability, designed to excel in harsh environments. Its robust aluminium epoxy powder-coated case with a drip shield and stainless steel fixings ensures resilience against heat, humidity, and salt air. The circuit boards are coated with acrylic to provide maximum corrosion resistance, and integrated temperature sensors monitor power components, adjusting the output current as needed to prevent overheating under extreme conditions. This charger operates efficiently across a wide input voltage range of 90-265V AC and is also compatible with a 90-400V DC supply, making it versatile for various power sources without requiring manual adjustments.

Equipped with three isolated outputs, the Centaur Charger can simultaneously charge up to three separate battery banks, each delivering the full rated current. It features a sophisticated three-stage charging process that includes bulk, timer, and float stages. The charger automatically switches to float mode after a 4-hour timer once the output drops to 70% of its rated amps. Temperature compensation ensures optimal charging performance by adjusting the voltage according to temperature changes, with a DIP switch allowing customization for different battery types such as Flooded Lead-acid, Gel, or AGM. This advanced design ensures reliable and efficient battery maintenance, enhancing both performance and longevity.

• Quality without compromise - Aluminium epoxy powder coated cases with drip shield and stainless steel fixings withstand the rigors of an adverse environment: heat, humidity and salt air. Circuit boards are protected with an acrylic coating for maximum corrosion resistance. Temperature sensors ensure that power components will always operate within specified limits, if needed by automatic reduction of output current under extreme environmental conditions.

• Universal 90-265V AC input voltage range and also suitable for DC supply (AC-DC and DC-DC operation) All models will operate without any adjustment needed over a 90 to 265 Volt input voltage range, whether 50 Hz or 60 Hz.

• The chargers also accept a 90-400 V DC supply.

• Three outputs that each can supply the full output current Three isolated outputs to simultaneously charge 3 battery banks Each output is capable to supply the full rated current.

• Three-stage charging, with temperature compensation The Centaur charges at bulk rate until the output has reduced to 70% of the rated Amps, at which a 4 hour timer begins. After the timed period the charger switches to float rate. An internal temperature sensor is used to compensate the charge voltage with – 2 mV/ºC (– 1 mV/ºF) per cell. A DIP switch is available to select the optimum charge/float voltages for Flooded Lead-acid, Gel or AGM batteries
