Votronic 3063 StandBy Charger Pro 12V, charge starter battery

The standby charger Pro 12V (3063) from Votronic is used to automatically recharge and maintain the charge of the starter battery in vehicles with two battery circuits.

• Nominal battery voltage: 12V
• Input voltage range: 12...15V
• max. current consumption: 12A

The standby charger Pro 12V (MPN 3063) from Votronicis used for automatic recharging and charge retention of the starter battery in vehicles with two battery circuits. In contrast to the conventional StandBy-Charger, the StandBy-Charger Pro has an adjustable undervoltage limit at the input, which prevents the battery from draining completely. If the input battery is charged via a mains charger, a solar system or similar, the output battery is charged with max. 8 A to the previously set voltage.

The charge retention works automatically and can be recognized by an increased voltage level of the starter battery. The charger is connected between the input and output battery and has two independent 12V control inputs: "EN" for activation and "DIS" for deactivation. The adjustable cut-off wave of 12-14V prevents deep discharge of the battery connected on the input side. Using the StandBy-Charger can significantly extend the service life of the battery.

About the StandBy-Charger Pro 12V

• IU charging characteristic
• Passive cooling without fan
• High output current of max. 8A
• Adjustable cut-off wave from 12-24V
• Adjustable end-of-charge voltage from 12.5-14.5V
• Compatible with lead, AGM and lithium (LiFePO4) batteries
• Charging converter for recharging and charge retention of the starter battery
• 2 LEDs indicate operating status
• Safe to operate due to overheating protection
• 2 independent control inputs: EN (activate) and DIS ( deactivate)
• Upward and downward conversion from input to output voltage possible
• StandBy Charger can be switched on externally via switch and switched off, for example, by D+ while driving
• Works even if the voltage of the battery to be supplied is lower than that of the battery to be charged

Compared to the 3065 or 6065 StandBy-Charger

Modern lithium (LiFePO4) batteries have a significantly higher open-circuit voltage compared to starter batteries (lead, AGM). When using simple, unregulated and uncontrolled standby chargers, this leads to the complete discharge of the lithium supply battery. For this reason, the StandBy-Charger (item no. 3065 or 6065) is unfortunately not suitable for these. The Votronic StandBy-Charger Pro, on the other hand, has an adjustable undervoltage limit at the input. Charging is interrupted if the voltage falls below this limit. This means that it can be operated on a modern lithium (LiFePO4) battery as a supply battery without any problems and without running the risk of draining it completely.
