A-C SERIES SWITCH-MODE CHARGERS FOR SLA BATTERIES Features Operating Characteristics *I.C. based voltage and current regulation designed for sealed (valve-regulated) lead-acid batteries *Useable on domestic and overseas input voltages from 110VAC - 60Hz to 240VAC - 50Hz, except for the PSC1210000A-C, see charger selection guide *Automatic, current sensing dual-rate charging for efficient, care-free and safe operation *L.E.D.s indicate `power on' and "FAST" and "FLOAT" charging modes *Lightweight wall mounted plug-in or desk top design with screw type output terminals, depending on output current *Connectors to the battery for all A-C charger models are alligator clips with insulated sleeves, with the exception of the PSC-1210000A-C which uses automotive style clamp connectors "A-C" series chargers are new "switching" type devices which operate without the use of transformers. I.C.'s control and regulate current and voltage and automatically switch from the higher fast charge voltage to the lower float voltage when batteries are very close to being fully charged. At the float voltage it is safe to leave the battery connected to the charger indefinitely, making charging pretty much fool-proof. In the fast charge mode voltage goes up to 2.45V +/- 0.05V before switching, in the float charge mode voltage is held between 2.25- 2.30V/cell. This charger is ideal for cyclic applications where recharge time is critical and timely charge termination cannot be counted on. This charger ensures optimum battery performance & service life. *Protected against accidental reverse polarity connection * U.L. and European C.E. approval Specifications Output Current mA Type Automatic Length Width lbs. kgs. 6.75 / 7.35 300 dual rate 2.05 (52) 1.57 (40) 2.64 (67) 0.21 0.10 Plug-in 6 6.75 / 7.35 500 dual rate 2.05 (52) 1.57 (40) 2.64 (67) 0.21 0.10 Plug-in PSC-61000A-C 6 6.75 / 7.35 1000 dual rate 2.24 (57) 1.73 (44) 3.23 (82) 0.30 0.14 Plug-in PSC-64000A-C 6 6.75 / 7.35 4000 dual rate 5.43 (138) 2.83 (72) 1.65 (42) 0.90 0.41 Desk Top PSC-12300A-C 12 13.50 / 14.70 300 dual rate 2.05 (52) 1.57 (40) 2.64 (67) 0.21 0.10 Plug-in PSC-12500A-C 12 13.50 / 14.70 500 dual rate 2.24 (57) 1.73 (44) 3.23 (82) 0.30 0.14 Plug-in PSC-12800A-C 12 13.50 / 14.70 800 dual rate 2.24 (57) 1.73 (44) 3.23 (82) 0.30 0.14 Plug-in PSC-122000A-C 12 13.50 / 14.70 1800 dual rate 5.43 (138) 2.83 (72) 1.65 (42) 0.90 0.41 Desk Top PSC-124000A-C 12 13.50 / 14.70 4000 dual rate 5.43 (138) 2.83 (72) 1.65 (42) 0.90 0.41 Desk Top PSC-1210000A-C* 12 13.50 / 14.70 10000 dual rate 8.80 (224) 5.17 (131) 3.33 (85) 4.30 1.95 Desk Top PSC-241000A-C 24 27.00 / 29.40 1000 dual rate 5.43 (138) 2.83 (72) 1.65 (42) 0.90 0.41 Desk Top Nominal Voltage Float/Fast Charge PSC-6300A-C 6 PSC-6500A-C Model Output Voltage Dimensions: in.

This charger is ideally suited for batteries from 40-100AH. Notes Recharge time depends on the depth of the preceding discharge and the output current of the charger. To determine the approximate recharge time of a fully discharged battery, divide the battery's amp. hrs. by the rated output current of the charger and multiply the resulting number of hours by a factor of 1.75 to compensate for the declining output current during the charge cycle. If the amount of amp. hrs. discharged from the battery is known, use it instead of the battery's capacity to make the calculation. When charging batteries in series (positive terminal of one battery is connected to negative of the other) all batteries in the string will receive the same amount of charge current, individual battery voltages may vary. When charging batteries in parallel (positive terminals are connected with positive terminals, negative terminals with negative), all batteries in the string are subject to the same charge voltage, but the charge current each battery receives can and will vary until equalization is reached. To ensure safe and efficient operation always refer to our Charger Operating Instructions, as published on our website. Power-Sonic does not offer chargers for batteries with capacities higher than 100 AH. If you have any queries or difficulties in locating a suitable charger for batteries above 100AH, our Technical department will be happy to help.
