Xantrex TRUECharge3 Battery Charger

TRUEcharge3 battery chargers lead the industry with a small footprint and ultra-compact design. In addition to meeting global safety and regulatory standards, they feature low electrical interference and efficient power factor-corrected multistage charging. The TRUEcharge3 Chargers can be mounted in multiple positions thanks to their inherent drip-proof design characteristics. Unlike its predecessors, TRUEcharge3 is lithium-ion battery compatible.

Designed for recreational and commercial applications worldwide, TRUEcharge3 accepts 90 - 265V AC, and 47 - 63Hz, which makes traveling abroad and handling poor-quality power a breeze. The easy-to-read display of the TRUEcharge3 12 V models can be enhanced with an optional remote panel. Each model has built-in protection against surges and spikes on the AC power line.

Three-Stage Charging:

• Multistage charging ensures batteries receive optimum charging, but with minimal wear and tear, regulating the voltage and current delivered to the batteries in three automatic stages:
  • Bulk: Replaces 70 - 80% of the battery's state-of-charge at the fastest possible rate
  • Absorption: Replenishes the remaining 20 - 30% of charge, bringing the battery to a full charge at a slow, safe rate
  • Float: Voltage is reduced and held constant to prevent damage and maintain batteries at a full charge for the remaining 20 - 30% of charge, bringing the battery to a full charge at a slow, safe rate

Power Factor Corrected (PFC) Charging:

• Less shore power is required for charging batteries, freeing up more usable AC power for running electrical devices and appliances and reducing the likelihood of tripping shore power breakers

Features:

• Microprocessor-controlled, multistage charging algorithms
• Settings for two and three-stage charging
• Battery-equalization feature
• Settings for flooded, gel, AGM, or lithium-ion batteries
• Equipped with parallel stacking (remote panel required)
• Ability to charge batteries drained to extremely low voltage
• Added quiet mode

Protection:

• Reverse-battery polarity protection
• Drip-proof design
• DC over-voltage protection
• Over-temperature protection
• Circuit breaker protection
