A-C SERIES SWITCH-MODE CHARGERS FOR SLA BATTERIES Features Operating Characteristics I.C. based voltage and current regulation designed for sealed A-C series chargers are new switching type devices which (valve-regulated) lead-acid batteries operate without the use of transformers. I.C.s control and regulate current and voltage and automatically switch from Useable on domestic and overseas input voltages from the higher fast charge voltage to the lower float voltage when 110VAC - 60Hz to 240VAC - 50Hz, except for the PSC- batteries are very close to being fully charged. At the float 1210000A-C, see charger selection guide voltage it is safe to leave the battery connected to the charger Automatic, current sensing dual-rate charging for indefinitely, making charging pretty much fool-proof. efficient, care-free and safe operation L.E.D.s indicate power on and FAST and FLOAT In the fast charge mode voltage goes up to 2.45V +/- 0.05V charging modes before switching, in the float charge mode voltage is held between 2.25- 2.30V/cell. Lightweight wall mounted plug-in or desk top design with screw type output terminals, depending on output current This charger is ideal for cyclic applications where recharge time Connectors to the battery for all A-C charger models are is critical and timely charge termination cannot be counted on. alligator clips with insulated sleeves, with the exception of This charger ensures optimum battery performance & service life. the PSC-1210000A-C which uses automotive style clamp connectors Protected against accidental reverse polarity connection U.L. and European C.E. approval Specifications Output Dimensions: in.

This charger is ideally suited for batteries from 40-100AH. Notes Recharge time depends on the depth of the preceding When charging batteries in series (positive terminal discharge and the output current of the charger. To of one battery is connected to negative of the other) all determine the approximate recharge time of a fully batteries in the string will receive the same amount of discharged battery, divide the batterys amp. hrs. by charge current, individual battery voltages may vary. the rated output current of the charger and multiply the resulting number of hours by a factor of 1.75 to When charging batteries in parallel (positive terminals compensate for the declining output current during the are connected with positive terminals, negative terminals charge cycle. If the amount of amp. hrs. discharged with negative), all batteries in the string are subject to the from the battery is known, use it instead of the batterys same charge voltage, but the charge current each battery capacity to make the calculation. receives can and will vary until equalization is reached. To ensure safe and efficient operation always refer to our Charger Operating Instructions, as published on our website. Power-Sonic does not offer chargers for batteries with capacities higher than 100 AH. If you have any queries or difficulties in locating a suitable charger for batteries above 100AH, our T echnical department will be happy to help. www.power-sonic.com Contact Information INTERNATIONAL SALES DOMESTIC SALES CUSTOMER SERVICE TECHNICAL SUPPORT Tel: +1-650-364-5001 Tel: +1-619-661-2020 Tel: +1-619-661-2030 Tel: +1-619-661-2020 Fax: +1-650-366-3662 Fax: +1-619-661-3650 Fax: +1-619-661-3648 Fax: +1-619-661-3648 international-sales power-sonic.com national-sales power-sonic.com customer-service power-sonic.com support power-sonic.com 0913 1M CORPORATE OFFICE 7550 Panasonic Way San Diego, CA 92154 USA Tel: +1-619-661-2020 Fax: +1-619-661-3650 2010.
