SMPS-2420
BATTERY CHARGER
DESCRIPTION
DATAKOM SMPS-2420 series are fixed output
voltage, current limited lead acid and Nickel-
Cadmium switchmode battery chargers specially
designed for permanent connection to genset starter
batteries. They maintain the batteries fully charged,
without overcharging or gassing. They may also be
used in a wide range of industrial applications where
DC power is required.
The chargers are designed in high efficiency, half-
bridge 100kHz switchmode technology. Their rugged
design allows surviving in harsh electromagnetic
environments found in automotive industry.
The output voltage of the charger is adjustable
between 21.00 and 28.80V with external 0-10V
The charger measures internally its output current
analog signal. This feature allows application of any
and provides a 0-10V analog output. This signal

provides its float charge voltage of 26.80V. Via logic The unit is cooled with an internal automatic

The maximum efficiency of the charger exceeds
93%, meaning lower energy losses and lower long- FEATURES
term operation costs. As an example, compared to a
charger of 80% efficiency, with 30% average load - 100kHz half-bridge switchmode architecture

The wide input voltage range allows these chargers
to be used in most countries.
The rectifier fail output is provided as a standard
feature. Thanks to this output, a rectifier fail signal is
provided to the control module which will give an
alarm in case of failure.
