The BC-5A-M series are advanced battery chargers that combine high efficiency (over 91.5%), a compact metal design, and reliable operation in demanding automotive-industry conditions. Thanks to the wide input voltage range (170-305 VAC), these chargers are suitable for use in most countries without the need for derating.
The chargers are protected against overload, short circuit, high temperature, and reverse battery connection, ensuring long-lasting and safe operation. A particular advantage is the automatic detection of battery voltage (12 V or 24 V), which eliminates the risk of human error.
Designed with a “green mode” function, BC-5A-M chargers reduce power consumption at low load or in standby, making them an environmentally friendly and economical solution.
