Battery charger Skylla-i

Description

The Skylla-i is a modern, powerful 24 V battery charger with NMEA 2000 CAN bus connection and a 7-stage adaptive charge curve. An adaptive absorption time ensures the right amount of charge for lead-acid batteries, BatterySafe mode prevents damage due to excessive gassing and storage mode reduces maintenance and ageing when idle. PowerControl allows a maximum shore current to be set, and the charger is suitable for lithium-ion batteries (LiFePO4).

Features

• Charge current 80 or 100 A at 24 V, optionally with 2 outputs (1+1) or 3 outputs
• 7-stage adaptive curve for lead-acid, 3-stage curve for lithium-ion
• Lithium control via on/off signal or CAN bus
• Two galvanically isolated VE.Can ports (NMEA 2000), synchronised parallel operation
• PowerControl: maximum shore current adjustable
• Input 185–265 V AC, 45–65 Hz (also 180–350 V DC)
• Remote control as optional accessory, battery temperature sensor included
• Protection rating IP21, smaller and lighter than comparable models

Application

For 24 V onboard networks with shore power connection that need a compact charger with NMEA 2000 connectivity and adjustable shore current limiting.

Selection guide

On the versions with three outputs, the total current is limited to the rated current (80 or 100 A); on (1+1) the second output supplies the starter battery with approx. 4 A. Versions with two and with three outputs cannot be connected in parallel with each other.
