Product Description
24V-80V Penguin SCR Series Forklift Battery Charger
This high-performance SCR charger uses an intelligent microprocessor to control charge current and voltage during the charge cycle for forklifts. This precise control allows the charger to handle a range of battery technologies including high gravity and VRLA. They effectively charge under a wide range of temperature environments and variations in AC line voltage. The system includes a selectable Opportunity Charge profile which may reduce or eliminate battery changes during a shift or workday.
Frequently Asked Questions
What battery types can this SCR charger support?
