Eagle Eye - Model BC-2500 -Industrial Battery Charger
The BC-2500 is a resilient industrial battery charger specifically designed to eliminate single points of failure and never go offline. With its wide range of benefits, it’s easy to see exactly why it’s the only stationary battery Charger you’ll ever need. For example: Built-in redundancy with multiple iPMs in a single chassis allows the charger to take a hit and distribute the load accordingly. Rugged yet portable construction means it uses automotive grade parts while remaining lightweight enough to easily maneuver as needed. The charger’s modular design allows for iPMs to be easily replaced while remaining online (hot swappable with just two screws).
The BC-2500 is available in 480W or 400W at the following ratings:
- 24V with ranges 10 – 40 VDC, 0-80 ADC
- 48V with ranges 30 – 61 VDC, 0-80 ADC
- 130V with ranges 75 – 150 VDC, 0-64 ADC
Save time and money by purchasing and maintaining less hardware due to the redundancy (N+1, N+2, etc.) created by having multiple iPMs in a single chassis.
With all the features that come standard, you can count on this industrial battery charger taking care of more things so you don’t have to.
