AC/DC battery chargers

Our company offers products that operate with either 110VAC or 220VAC. These AC input products can operate at line frequencies from 47 - 440Hz, which covers the European to aircraft power line frequency range. The waterproof series is especially suited for generator sets, automotive and transportation on board requirements, portable applications such as floor washers, security gates and material handling. Some of our AC/DC products implement a four stage charge algorithm including an equalization stage. Equalization extends battery life and aids in maintaining capacity (see this presentation for more information). User defined optional relay signal contacts are available upon request. Our UPIC series, which will be introduced soon, has a universal input which can operate from 85-277VAC.
