BRIEF PRESENTATION

Chargers in the CPS (charge, programmable,
selective) range provide specific charging for 1 or 2
battery's banks in accordance with the battery
manufacturers' specifications.
An internal switch selects the type of battery :
Lead/Antimony (ANT) or Lead/Calcium (CAL).
Entirely automatic with built-in charge distribution,
they can remain permanently connected to the
batteries in complete safety and do not need to be
disconnected when starting the engine.
The timed Boost function, which allows the batteries
to be charged more quickly (6 hours ± 30 minutes),
may be activated or inhibited by means of an internal
switch as the user wishes:
"BOOST ON" position to enable Boost
"BOOST OFF" position to disable Boost
CPS chargers are protected against polarity reversal
and transient short-circuits.
Accepting a wide range of input frequencies and
voltages, they work from electricity generating sets
and may be connected to international marinas within
the specified tolerance range (115/230Vac ± 15%,
selected by internal jumper).
Two indicator lamps on the front panel show the
state of the charger :
Green LED
Yellow LED
ON"
CPS chargers are supplied in a metal case with IP22
protection rating. The overhanging cover and hood
protect the charger from running water.
The equipment is designed to work in a marine and
mobile environment.
All of the CPS range output a filtered and regulated
voltage of 12 or 24 V. In the event of battery
disconnection, the charger supplies the loads without
damage.
