Votronic 15A-12V Battery Charger Pb 1215 SMT 2B - 3100

Votronic 15A-12V Battery Charger PB1215 SMT2B for Lead-Acid and Lithium Batteries

Designed for high-quality motorhomes, marine use, special vehicles, and off-grid applications.

Votronic chargers are characterized by high operational reliability and readiness, representing the state of the art. Their high-quality charging technology, robust power electronics combined with intelligent microprocessor control, ensure precise adherence to charging voltages, currents, and times, thus extending battery life. A wide variety of device versions 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 trucks, ambulances, and coast guard! Quality Made in Germany!

All charging programs are applied by the charger for gentle full charging and subsequent trickle charging of the battery, with temperature compensation adapted to the battery type when a temperature sensor is used. The supply of connected consumers is also taken over during charging, dimensioned so that no more than 50% flows to consumers during the I-phase (initial charge).

When batteries are full, almost the entire possible device charging current is available for consumers without the batteries being discharged.

Further features at a glance:

• 15A main charge / 2A auxiliary charge
• Charging programs Gel, AGM, Acid, LiFePO4 (No. 1, 2, 4 and Li) adjustable to battery type
• Excellent charging technology
• Silent-Run function adjustable (night reduction)
• Separation of batteries in case of power failure, overheating, malfunction
• Charging voltages free of peaks, thus overcharging excluded
• Fully automatic continuous operation for constant battery readiness
• Separate auxiliary charging output "S" for support and trickle charging of the vehicle starter battery, max. 2A
• Automatic battery regeneration during long periods of inactivity (2x a week)
• Compensation of voltage losses on the charging cables for precise adherence to charging voltages
• Built-in on-board network filter: Trouble-free parallel operation with solar systems, generators, alternators etc. on one battery.
• Intelligent microprocessor control takes into account the simultaneous supply of consumers on the battery
• Precise battery temperature compensation (temperature sensor required)
• Power supply function: Allows the supply of consumers without a battery (e.g. battery change)

"LiFePO4": Charging program specially for lithium batteries

Charging program tailored to 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 use), and also buffers 12 V 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 IU1oU2oU3

Tailored to sealed, gas-tight gel/dryfit batteries with fixed electrolyte, which generally require a higher charging voltage level and longer U1 holding times to achieve short charging times with particularly high capacity storage and to avoid long-term battery "starvation". Perfectly suited for charging WATTSTUNDE GEL batteries.

2. AGM: Charging program for AGM / fleece batteries, characteristic IU1oU2oU3

Designed for charging sealed, gas-tight AGM (Absorbent-Glass-Mat) batteries and those in lead-fleece technology, which require a particularly high U1 level with coordinated holding 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 IU1oU2oU3

Universal program for charging and trickle charging of acid batteries in vehicles (mixed mobile/stationary). With a medium U1 level, it still offers short charging times, a good charging factor and good acid mixing for open and closed, low-maintenance, maintenance-free standard, drive, lighting, solar and heavy-duty batteries, as well as AGM batteries with normal U1 level.
