  • Product description
  • Technical details

The charger series VAC-Fc is intended for vehicle installation and fulfils the requirements of the FNFW in the
current fire brigade standard DIN 14679 for charging auxiliary and starter batteries in emergency vehicles.

In addition, all units are equipped with the standardised FireCAN connection (DIN 14700) ready to plug in.

  • Standardised FireCAN connection (see also www.FireCAN.info)
  • Charging programmes no. 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9 (start, gel, AGM, acid) adjustable to battery type
  • Outstanding charging technology
  • Fully automatic continuous operation for batteries always ready for use
  • Charging voltages are free of peaks and regulated to exclude overcharging
  • Trouble-free operation and co-powering of devices connected to the vehicle's electrical system
  • Starter battery is also charged with full charging current if required (short vehicle service life)
  • 1 main charging output and 1 additional auxiliary charging output "S" for back-up and trickle charging, e.g. of another starter battery of the same voltage (max. 2A)
  • Signal output (MA) +86 for engine start inhibition in case of vehicle mains connection
  • Optical and acoustic warning in case of battery and operating faults
  • Precise battery temperature compensation, temperature sensor included in scope of delivery
  • Automatic battery regeneration during long idle periods (twice a week)
  • Compensation of voltage losses on the charging cables for exact compliance with charging voltages
  • Disconnection of batteries in case of mains failure, overheating, malfunction (safety switch for each charging output)
  • Power supply function enables consumers to continue operation and data retention, e.g. when changing batteries
  • Manual charge start in case of deeply discharged battery according to DIN 14679
  • Variable installation position
  • Electronics protected against moisture
  • Intelligent microprocessor control takes into account the simultaneous supply of loads to the battery.

Note:The units with FireCAN connection are only available for manufacturers and original equipment manufacturers (OEM).
