FEATURES
The DC20 charger overcomes the problem of voltage drop associated with long cables commonly
used with auxiliary battery installations. By ‘stepping up’ the dropped voltage using switchmode
charging technology, the DC20 delivers a full three stage charge to your auxiliary battery.
SWITCHMODE TECHNOLOGY
Using the latest switchmode technology, the DC20 converts your vehicle’s 12VDC alternator power
up to 14.4VDC allowing your batteries to be fully charged, prolonging battery life and reliability.
Switchmode charging uses electronic components allowing the charger to be lightweight and
compact without sacrificing on performance.
SUPERIOR 3 STAGE CHARGING
Using electronic control, the charger delivers 3 stage charging resulting in a faster and more
powerful charge, making it ideal for deep cycle batteries. The first stage, bulk (constant current),
charges the battery faster while the second stage, absorption (constant voltage), ensures the
battery is thoroughly charged. The final stage, float, maintains the battery at a safe voltage
allowing it to be maintained and ready for use indefinitely.
IGNITION CONNECTION
The DC20 can be wired to the vehicle’s ignition allowing it to operate only when the ignition is
turned on. Alternatively you can connect the ignition and input terminals for continuous operation.
PROTECTIVE FEATURES
Spark-Free Protection
Prevents the output leads from sparking due to accidental short circuit making the charger
safer to use around batteries.
Reverse Connection Protection
Fuse protected to prevent damage to internal electronics in case of accidental reverse connection.
Over and Under Voltage Protection
The charger will automatically shut down if there is an over voltage or under voltage problem.
Over Temperature Protection
The charger will lower its output current if the temperature of the unit begins to overheat.
EASY MOUNTING
The battery charger side extrusions allow for quick and easy mounting for permanent installations.
LED DISPLAY
The easy to read LED panel displays a range of information to ensure safe operation and to inform
you of the battery status.
s Input: indicates if the input battery is correctly connected
s Output: indicates if the output battery is correctly connected.
s Fault: indicates internal damage requiring repair.
s Charging: illuminates when charging.
s Fully Charged: illuminates when fully charged.
