Votronic 40A 12V Battery Charger VAC 1240 M 3A - 0413

Votronic Battery Charger VAC-1240M 3A
Built-in mains chargers for emergency vehicles with highly variable duty cycles

Especially in rescue and emergency vehicles, the reliability of the batteries installed in the vehicle is crucial for the vehicle's operational readiness. This is particularly true when many continuous consumers place a heavy load on the batteries, when there is insufficient time for recharging due to frequent deployments, or when the charger is inadequately matched to the batteries. To meet the specific requirements of emergency vehicles, the VAC series was created in cooperation with vehicle and leading battery manufacturers.

Votronic charging technology has been used for years in professional emergency vehicles such as fire engines, ambulances, and coast guard! Quality - Made in Germany - !

The device electronics are protected against moisture and ensure safe operation even with strong temperature fluctuations. Continuous consumers connected to the vehicle's electrical system (radios, charging cradles, etc.) are supplied without impairing the charging process. The built-in charging current distributor automatically supplies the starter battery with full charging current if required. A signal output can be used to activate the engine start interlock when the vehicle is connected to the mains.
The devices are supplied including temperature sensor 825, to ensure optimal battery charging. The mounting position is variable; a second device label included in the scope of delivery ensures this. Instead of a remote control, a waterproof LED display (see accessories) can be connected to the "Remote Control" connection socket, which indicates the operational readiness of the device on the outside of the vehicle.
