Victron Energy Centaur 12V DC Battery Charger - 100 Amp, 3-Bank, 120-240V AC & 90-400V DC Input

Centaur Charger - 12 VDC - 100AMP - 3-Bank - 120-240 VAC

Features:

• 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/C ( 1 mV/F) per cell. A DIP switch is available to select the optimum charge/float voltages for Flooded Lead-acid, Gel or AGM batteries

The Victron Energy Centaur CCH012100000 is a high-performance 12-volt DC battery charger designed for demanding environments. Constructed with durable aluminium epoxy powder-coated cases, a drip shield, and stainless steel fixings, this charger withstands extreme conditions such as heat, humidity, and salt air. Its circuit boards are protected with an acrylic coating to maximize corrosion resistance, while integrated temperature sensors monitor operation and automatically reduce output current if necessary, ensuring reliable performance across various environmental scenarios. This robust design guarantees long-term durability and consistent charging performance in challenging settings. The Centaur charger features universal input compatibility, accepting 90-265V AC at 50 or 60 Hz or a 90-400V DC supply, making it suitable for diverse power sources without requiring adjustments. Its three isolated outputs allow simultaneous charging of three battery banks, each capable of delivering the full rated current, simplifying multi-battery system management. The charger employs a three-stage charging process with temperature compensation, starting with a bulk charge until the battery voltage drops to 70% of the rated current, then transitioning to a float stage after a four-hour timer. An internal temperature sensor adjusts the voltage to prevent overheating, with options to optimize charging voltages for flooded lead-acid, gel, or AGM batteries via a DIP switch. This versatile charger is ideal for marine, RV, and industrial applications where reliable, efficient battery management is critical. For more details, visit the warranty information.
