Votronic 40A-12V Battery Charger Pb 1240 SMT 3B - 3124
Votronic 40A-12V Battery Charger PB1240 SMT2B for Lithium and Lead-Acid Batteries
Designed for high-quality motorhomes, marine use, special vehicles and off-grid applications.
Votronic chargers are characterised by high operational reliability and readiness for use, representing the latest in technology. Their high-quality charging technology, robust power electronics combined with intelligent microprocessor control ensures precise adherence to charging voltages, currents and times, thus extending battery life. A variety of different versions of the devices are available, allowing you to find the right charger for your application.
Votronic charging technology has been used for years in professional emergency vehicles such as fire engines, ambulances, and coast guard! Quality Made in Germany!
All charging programs are applied by the charger for gentle full charging and then for trickle charging of the battery. When using a temperature sensor, temperature compensation is also adjusted according to the battery type. The supply of connected consumers is also handled during charging, dimensioned such that no more than 50% flows into the consumers during the I-phase (initial charging).
When batteries are full, almost the entire available charging current is available for consumers, without the batteries being discharged.
Further special features at a glance:
- 40 A main charge / 4 A auxiliary charge
- Charging programs Gel, AGM, Acid, LiFePO4 (No. 1, 2, 4 and Li) adjustable to battery type
- Two charging outputs and one auxiliary charging output
- Second main charging output can also be used for fast charging of the starter battery
- Silent-Run function adjustable (night reduction)
- Battery disconnection in case of power failure, overheating, malfunction
- Charging voltages free of peaks, thus overcharging is excluded
- Fully automatic continuous operation for constant readiness of the batteries
- Separate auxiliary charging output "S" for supporting and trickle charging of the vehicle starter battery, max. 2A
- Automatic battery regeneration during long periods of inactivity (twice a week)
- Compensation of voltage losses on the charging cables for precise adherence to charging voltages
- Built-in on-board mains filter: Problem-free parallel operation with solar systems, generators, alternators etc. on one battery.
- Intelligent microprocessor control takes into account the simultaneous supply of consumers from the battery
- Precise battery temperature compensation (temperature sensor required)
- Power supply function: Enables consumers to be supplied without a battery (e.g. battery replacement)
Selectable charging programs / charging characteristics:
"LiFePO4": Charging program specifically for lithium batteries
Charging program adapted for lithium LiFePO4 batteries with their own BMS and prescribed or built-in protection circuitry. A special resting maintenance automatically keeps the LiFePO4 battery at a charge level of 50-80%, which is advantageous for its lifespan, when the vehicle is parked (seasonal operation), and also buffers 12V consumers and the vehicle's starter battery. In addition, a regular Auto Wake Up function activates battery cell balancing.
1. "Gel": Charging program for gel batteries, characteristic curve IU1oU2oU3
Adapted for sealed, gas-tight gel / dryfit batteries with fixed electrolyte, which generally require a higher charging voltage level and longer U1 hold times to achieve short charging times with particularly high capacity storage and to avoid long-term battery "starvation". Perfectly suited for our WATTSTUNDE gel batteries, among others.
2. "AGM": Charging program for AGM / fleece batteries, characteristic curve IU1oU2oU3
Designed for charging sealed, gas-tight AGM (Absorbent Glass Mat) batteries and those with lead-fleece technology, which require a particularly high U1 level with adjusted hold times for full charging and then a moderate U2 level for trickle charging (round cell and plate technology).
4. "UNIVERSAL": Charging program for lead-acid / wet batteries, characteristic curve IU1oU2oU3
Universal program for charging and trickle charging of acid batteries in vehicles (mixed mobile/stationary). Offers short charging times, good charge factor and good acid mixing with a medium U1 level for open and closed, low-maintenance, maintenance-free standard, traction, lighting, solar and heavy-duty batteries, as well as AGM batteries with normal U1 level.
