BCD601
DC/DC BATTERY EQUALIZER
DESCRIPTION
The
BCD601-24-12 is a Battery Equalizer that safely permits
12 Volts to be drawn of a 24V Battery bank. The unit
is connected across the 24V battery bank, and its output
is connected to the 12V midpoint of the battery bank.
12 Volt loads may now be connected to the lower battery,
and providing the average load is less than the output
capacity of the Battery Equalizer, both batteries will
be maintained at the correct voltage. The BCD601-24-12
has a capacity of 50 amps. Units can be connected in
parallel for even greater capacity.
The way that these units work is that the output is
set to exactly ½ of the input voltage. Then as
the load on the lower battery is applied, the unit takes
current from the upper battery and feeds it to the lower
battery to keep each at exactly ½ of the total
voltage. The units are compatible with all 24V battery
chargers and alternators.
Available options include a remote control and/or extra-wide
temperature. We are confident that you will get many
years of reliable service from this Battery Equalizer.
