– 50 °C (32 – 122 °F)

 

 

Current de-rating

approx. 2% (Imax) / °C (50 – 65 °C) (122 – 149 °F)

 

 

Storage

-40 – 80 °C (-40 – 176 °F)

Protection Features

Battery reverse polarity

No damage incurred by reverse polarity.

 

 

Safe non-operating battery voltage

35 VDC maximum

 

 

Over-voltage limits

The XC Series will stop charging any bank that has a

 

voltage greater than + 0.5 V over the temperature

 

compensated absorption voltage. It will restart when

 

this voltage is + 0.2 V.

 

 

Output current limit

XC3012: 30 – 33 ADC

 

XC5012: 50 – 55 ADC

 

XC1524: 15 – 16.5 ADC

 

XC2524: 25 – 27.5 ADC

 

 

Over-temperature

Internal charger temperature is measured. Unit shuts

 

down and restarts as follows:

 

Over-temperature shutdown at 75 °C (167 °F)

 

Over-temperature restart at 70 °C (158 °F)

 

 

Current derating in ambient

Rated current to 50 °C (122 °F)

temperatures

2%/ °C derating above 50 °C (122 °F)

 

 

Battery over-temperature

Battery temperature, as sensed by the battery

protection

temperature sensor (if installed), results in the

 

charger no longer charging the individual battery or

 

bank at a battery temperature of 55 °C (132 °F).
