Securing the functioning of mobile equipment in dismounted operations
If soldiers are deployed in remote areas for long periods of time, the equipment batteries they carry will have to be recharged. The battery charger is specially designed for these requirements. As a charging station fed by the vehicle’s power supply, the battery charger can charge up to four different types of batteries simultaneously. Intelligent charging electronics ensure the optimal charge level of the battery blocks at all times and prevent overcharging. It is not necessary to keep the vehicle’s engine running for the charging process. Thanks to its enclosed design, the box-shaped charging cup holder protects both the inserted batteries and the mounted soldiers during the ride.
Performance overview:
- Charges four different battery types
- Monitors battery status and vehicle prime power voltage
- Open to new technologies
- Automatic battery recognition and charging
- Prevents charging outside of battery specifications
- Deep discharge protection for vehicle battery
Important standards and product characteristics
Functions
The charger uses the charging cradle to identify the necessary parameters so that the charging process starts automatically when an insertable battery is inserted into the charging cup holder. The intelligent charging electronics monitor both the battery and the vehicle’s prime power voltage.
