8 Technical description
The battery charger can charge batteries that are used on board of vehicles to generate power or supply the batter-
ies with a retention voltage so that they do not discharge. The battery charger is automatically charging the batteries
and maintaining them with float voltage after the charging has finished. The battery charger can be connected to the
batteries for a longer time without damaging them.
The battery charger can be supplied for charging from an external AC power source or a DC power source from the
alternator inside the vehicle. When charging from an AC source the battery charger can charge 2 batteries indepen-
dently of each other. When charging from a DC power source, the charging voltage is independent of alternator
voltage variations due to a built-in buck-boost regulator.
The vehicle start can be supported with the built-in buck-boost function during the start cycle or the possibility to
charge the starting battery for a limited time via the house battery.
The built-in buck-boost function allows the house battery to be charged while driving.
The charging process can be controlled via:
• A remote control
• A monitoring and controlling device
• The vehicle CI bus
• An intelligent battery sensor (IBS)
The battery charger can operate in 3 different modes:
Mode
Description
Slave mode
The battery charger is not connected to an IBS. The charging of the battery is controlled by the CI bus of
the vehicle, a remote control, or a monitoring and controlling device.
The charging voltage and currents are set by the device controlling the battery charger.
If the battery charger is connected to an AC source and 2 batteries, a maximum current of 25 A per bat-
tery can be set. The starting battery is automatically prioritized by the battery charger for charging when
2 batteries are connected. If only 1 battery is connected to the battery charger, the connected battery is
supplied with a maximum current of 25 A.
If the battery charger is connected to a DC source, the maximum current is 30 A.
