[RE-wrenches] Programmable battery chargers

[Andrew Perkins]

Yeah we used to be able to open up the IOTAs and do that now they are all riveted shut! I was using Powermax for a long while but they kept failing on us so I went back to iota. I am selling those Rolls S6 series L16s and they need to be charged at a higher voltage but none of the standard presets will go that high. Maybe ill give them another shot.



Thanks for the reminder.

Andrew,

We open the Iota DLS series and adjust the output voltage for our needs. Have done that for many years. The dual voltage jack can then be used for 0.6 Volts switching. We have also used relays and external voltage controllers to automate the DLS voltage switching when the IQ module is insufficient.  



Also look at the Powermax PM series. They have a voltage adjustment but don’t have the dual voltage that DLS offers.

Hello Wrenches,

      I have been looking for some programmable battery chargers probably around 50 amps that I can set a specific voltage, I have been using IOTA in the past but its only a fixed voltage and some of the batteries I have been selling require higher charge setpoints. I am mainly using these on 12v systems any thing higher I have just been using inverter/chargers like Magnum or Schneider. Just seeing what other people have been using out there.
