Victron Energy Centaur Charger 24 VDC 30AMP 3-Bank with Universal Input and Temperature Compensation

Centaur Charger - 24 VDC - 30AMP - 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 CCH024030000 is a versatile and durable battery charger designed for demanding environments. Featuring a robust aluminium epoxy powder-coated case with a drip shield and stainless steel fixings, this charger withstands heat, humidity, and salt air exposure. Its acrylic-coated circuit boards provide maximum corrosion resistance, ensuring long-term reliability. Built-in temperature sensors automatically adjust the charging parameters to maintain optimal performance under extreme conditions, reducing output current if necessary to protect your batteries and charger components.
The Centaur charger supports a wide input voltage range from 90 to 265 volts AC, making it compatible with various grid standards worldwide. It also accepts a DC supply voltage from 90 to 400 volts, providing flexibility in power sources. With three isolated outputs, each capable of delivering the full 30 amps, you can simultaneously charge three separate battery banks without concern for load sharing or interference. This design is ideal for complex systems requiring multiple battery groups such as RVs, boats, or off-grid applications.
This charger employs a three-stage charging process with temperature compensation to maximize battery lifespan and efficiency. It charges at a bulk rate until the battery reaches approximately 70% of its capacity, then switches to a float rate after a four-hour timer. The internal temperature sensor adjusts the charging voltage by 2 mV per degree Celsius per cell, ensuring safe and effective charging under varying environmental conditions. An integrated DIP switch allows customization for different battery chemistries including Flooded Lead-acid, Gel, or AGM, providing tailored charging profiles for optimal battery health.
