Important NoticeOverview
The Xantrex 804-1240-02 is a 12v 40-Amp 3-bank marine battery chargers. The Xantrex TrueCharge2 40 has an industry leading small footprint and ultra-compact design.
In addition to meeting global safety and regulatory standards this battery charger features low electrical interference, and efficient power factor corrected multistage charging. Thanks to their inherent drip-proof design characteristics this charger can be mounted in multiple positions
Designed for recreational and commercial applications worldwide, TRUECharge2 accepts 90 - 265 Vac, 47-63 Hz which makes traveling abroad and handling poor-quality power a breeze. The easy-to-read display of the TRUECharge2 40 A model can be augmented with an optional remote panel. This charger comes with built-in protection against surges and spikes on the AC power line.
This charger features Power Factor Corrected (PFC) Charging, which requires less shorepower for charging batteries. This features frees up more usable AC power for running electrical devices and appliances and reducing the likelihood of tripping shorepower breakers
Three-Stage Multistage charging ensures batteries receive optimum charging, but with minimal wear and tear, regulating the voltage and current delivered to the batteries in three automatic stages:
- Bulk: Replaces 70-80% of the battery’s state-of-charge at the fastest possible rate.
- Absorption: Replenishes the remaining 20-30% of charge, bringing the battery to a full charge at a slow, safe rate.
- Float: Voltage is reduced and held constant in order to prevent damage and maintain batteries at a full charge.
The Xantrex 804-1240-02 allows you to double the output power by putting it in parallel with another unit! In order to enable this feature the optional remote and an additional unit is required.
Typical applicatons:
Automotive
Recreational vehicles
Marine communications sites
Battery back-up systems
Operating DC Loads: When the battery charger is operating, DC loads such as fans and lights may vary in speed or intensity. This is normal. The Truecharge2 Battery Charger will not harm any load connected to it as long as the load can withstand the maximum voltage of 16.0 V.Features
- TRUECharge2 40 A are equipped with PARALLEL STACKING feature. This allows two chargers to work together to combine the output current, achieving up to 80 A for large battery banks. This requires the optional Remote Panel (part #808-8040-01 sold separately).
