Protection & Environmental

• Engine Shutdown Detection: Integrated mechanism detects when the engine is running to ensure the charger only draws power when the alternator is supplying power.
• Adaptive 4-Stage Charge Algorithm: Includes fully programmable algorithms for lead-acid (with automatic absorption time adjustment) and lithium batteries.
• Low Temperature Shutdown: Automatically turns off at low temperatures to prevent damage to lithium batteries.
• Input Undervoltage Protection: Shuts down when input voltage drops below a configurable lockout value to protect the starter battery.
• Comprehensive Electronic Protection: Includes protection against overload, short circuits, and excessive temperatures (output power is reduced when maximum product temperature is reached).
• Operating Temperature Range: -20 to +60 °C (derating 1.5% per °C above 40 °C).
• Humidity: 95%, non-condensing.
• Protection Category: IP65 (dust-tight and protected against heavy rain).
