One Charger - Many Solutions

Within the power limits of the charger, every charger can be set to perform both conventional charging and various levels of opportunity charging. There are six different charge curves pre-programmed into every charger.

AGV Option

With the addition of an optional PC board, the charger communicates with many popular AGV charging systems. This ability to communicate with the AGV allows them to pull into a charging station and receive an optimum charge automatically.

Ionic Mixing Option

When the Ionic mixing charge curve is selected, the charger pulses the output current during the finish portion of the charge cycle resulting in brief periods of increased gassing. This gassing action improves the mixing of the electrolyte without increasing electrolyte usage. This ensures that the heavy acid at the bottom of the cell is thoroughly mixed throughout the cell, preventing stratification and extending battery life.

Gassing Block-out

All the opportunity charge curves include a gassing block-out period that prevents the charger from entering the gas-producing, finish charge stage for the first two hours that the battery is connected to the charger. In opportunity charging, it is critical to return as many ampere hours as possible in the limited time available. For this reason, the charger does not shut down when it reaches the gassing point, but simply reduces the charge current to minimize gassing.
