DC CHARGERS
DC CHARGERS
The INSIDE Story
Chloride’s history with the DC Chargers started in the early 1970s in the UK, and in 1982, a DC Charger manufacturing plant was set up in CBSEA, Singapore. Today, CBSEA’s Chloride DC charger has established itself in the region and with the reliability record to be proud of. This stems from the fact that we never compromise on quality, and use only IEC certified components to give the charger the edge, and longevity in service life.
Freewheeling Diode
Preventing accidental reverse polarity from the battery connection to the Thyristor. Certified under IEC 60747-1 to 15; IEC 60664 & Din EN 50178 In.
Solid State Thyrlstor Module
A high class Switching device which convert AC power to DC power through the control of Chloride Controller Card. Certified under IEC 60747-1.
Capacitor
Working together with the choke to form a L-C filtering circuit to reduce noise on the DC output line. Certified under JIS C5101-4.
Battery Load / Breaker
MCCB breaker for Battery protection. Certified under IEC 60947-2 : 10KA.
Main Transformer
3-phase transformer for stepping down the input voltage to the charger rating nominal voltage. Certified under IEC 60076.
Choke
Working together with the Capacitors to form a L-C filtering circuit to reduce noise along the DC output line. Certified under IEC 60076.
External Alarm Cards
Additional dry contact alarm card mean for individual alarm monitoring.
Charger Controller Card
The heart of the charger operation, which control the firing circuit of the Thyristors, the Float & Boost voltage settings, Alarm settings, Current Limit setting, Alarm Monitoring, etc.
Surge Suppressor, Input Breaker
AC Input MCB meant for the protection of the charger equipment from any inrush current or surges from the Mains during Power On. Certified under IEC 60947-2 : 10KA.
The Surge Suppressor is meant for protecting the charger component against any transient or lightning strike via the DC output line.
Dropping Diode
Reduces the DC output voltage to the load voltage tolerance level Certified under IEC 60747-1 to 15; IEC 60664 & Din EN 50178.
