3 isolated outputs that each can supply up to the
fully rated current. Combined total rated current
cannot be exceeded. Keeping within the total
power rating of the battery charger.
Safety

ENVIRONMENTAL
Operating Temperature
-20°C to +60°C.
Derating
Full load up to 40C ambient, Output will reduce to
approximately 80% of nominal at 50C and 60% of
nominal at 60C
Cooling
Temperature and current controlled fan.
95% max (non condensing).
Total Output Ammeter
Yes.

MECHANICAL
Charge Characteristic
Charges at the absorption rate, until the output
has reduced to 70% of rated current. At which
time a 4hour timer begins, then the charger
switches to float rate
Temperature Sensor
Internal, -2mV/°C per cell.
Battery Monitor
The BMV-700 battery monitor features an
advanced control and measuring system for
battery voltage and charge/discharge current.
The battery monitor displays battery voltage,
current, consumed AH or time to go.
Battery Alarm
An excessively high or low battery voltage is
indicated by an audible and visual alarm
AC Connection
Screw-clamp 4mm² (AWG 6)
Battery Connection
M6 or M8 studs
