DC-DC Converter for charging a 12V or 24V service battery in vehicles with a smart alternator (regenerative braking, Euro 5 and Euro 6 engines). The Buck-Boost DC-DC Converter is a DC-DC Converter for charging a 12V or 24V service battery in vehicles with a smart alternator. The converter will charge the auxiliary battery with a pre-set charge voltage, eliminating high voltages (e.g. Mercedes: 15,4V) and low voltages.
‘Engine running' detection system Deep discharge of the vehicle's starting battery is avoided by a built-in ‘engine running' detection system. Instead of this detection system, the converter can also be activated by means of a programmable input (D+, CAN bus or (+)15 connection).
Fully programmable The converter can be fully programmed by means of a simple and user-friendly PC application. (USB type A male to USB type B male cable needed).
One product for 12V, 24V and 12/24V systems The converter can be programmed to charge a 12V or a 24V auxiliary battery from either a 12V or a 24V alternator and starter battery.
Charge current and input current limiter The output current is determined by the following factors:
The maximum charge current setting The maximum input current setting The maximum operating temperature limit of the converter
A question we get asked many times. So we've created a simple calculator to give you some idea of how long your battery will last off grid. It will take into consideration any solar panels you've installed, 12v and 240v usage. Based on the information provided it will recommend a battery size and estimate the number of days use.
