BRITMAR 37.5/75A Battery Charger

AC-DC battery charger for marine environments. Supports 12V and 24V battery banks with selectable charge rates from 20% to 100%. Compatible with lead acid, gel, AGM, and LiFePO4 batteries. Includes drip shield, LED fault indicator, RS232 NEMA output, and optional temperature sensor.

MAIN IMAGE

The BRITMAR BC112L is an AC-DC battery charger engineered for marine service. It charges both 12V and 24V battery banks within a single unit, eliminating the need for separate chargers across different voltage systems.

Key operational features include selectable charge rate adjustment from 20% to 100%, compatibility with lead acid, gel, AGM, and LiFePO4 battery chemistries, and integrated RS232 NEMA output for remote monitoring. The unit includes a drip shield for splash protection and an LED fault indicator for diagnostics. An optional temperature sensor is available for enhanced charge profile management.

APPLICATIONS
