Product Description
Details
Victron Centaur battery chargers are heavy-duty, analog control, no-nonsense devices for serious installations. The cases are of epoxy powder coated aluminium, with stainless steel hardware. Circuit boards are protected with an acrylic coating for maximum corrosion resistance. Centaurs weigh about a third more than most modern chargers, and are supported by an outstanding 5-year worldwide warranty.
These Victron chargers accept 90-265 (50/60hz) volts AC input for worldwide use. Three isolated outputs can simultaneously charge 3 battery banks, and each leg is capable of supplying the full rated current. An analog current meter diplays the output current. A dip switch is used to select battery type: flooded Lead-acid, gel or AGM. Temperature compensation is via a sensor in the charger that senses ambient temperature and adjusts the output voltage as needed. There is no remote sensor.
The Victron Centaur battery chargers are stand-alone devices, and do not connect to Victron's network system.
