Description
PTMS-24-67 Charger System The PTM charger provides a significant improvement in system reliability by utilizing multiple independent charger modules that plug into the unit, and should a fault occur in one module, the system continues to operate, thus being considered a “fault”. The system consists of a wall-mount case that serves as a connection point to AC input and battery output (3 banks) and contains three front-facing power bays, each accommodating a 22.5-amp charger module that slides and locks in place, creating a 24V, 67-amp charger. If a module fault occurs, a front panel indicator and alarm relay are activated, and the system continues operating on the other modules. A fourth bay houses the “smart” controller circuit that provides 3-step charging, temperature compensation, system status LEDs, alarm contacts, and indicators. Should the controller suffer a fault, the charger will still operate at full power in float voltage mode. The controller module is also configured for easy plug-in replacement in the field. Vessel operators appreciate this system approach to reliability and serviceability, whereby a fault in one of the modules is easily identified and it can be quickly replaced with an on-hand spare or an exchange unit from the factory, all the while the charging system and the vessel continue to operate. Reliability Redundant, independent 22.5 amp charger modules increase reliability; a malfunction of one does not disable the charging system; the remaining modules continue to operate. Serviceability: Module change-out takes only minutes via plug-and-play configuration while the system continues to operate Technical personnel not required No need to remove the charger case from the boat or disconnect any wiring No inconvenience of power interruption to the boat Features: Three-stage “smart” charging; bulk, absorption, float Battery type selector switch; gel-cell, lead-acid, AGM Temperature-compensated output via sensor 24 Volt; 22-67 amps “Universal” input of 90-264 VAC, 50-60 Hz. – can be used anywhere in the world Powder-coated stainless steel case ABS approved as a redundant power system for essential services as well as a battery charger Specifications: Modules Installed: 3 Max Output Amps: 67 Max Input Amps @ 115/230 VAC: 18/9 Dimensions: 20.9 x 10.9 x 8.8 inches (53.1 x 27.7 x 22.4 centimeters) Weight (lbs/kg): 35/16 Input Specifications: Voltage/Frequency: 90-264 VAC, 47-63 Hz, single phase; derate linearly from 100% output @ 105 VAC to 80% output @ 90 VAC Amperage: 18 @ 120 VAC; 9 @ 230 VAC Power Factor: .96-.99 Efficiency: 85% typical Output Specifications: Output Amps: 67 total Nominal Charge/Float Voltages: Gel-Cell: 28.0 VDC @ 50% load/27.2 @ .5A load; Flooded/AGM: 28.4 @ 50% load/26.8 @ 5A load Temperature Compensation (Option): – 5 mV per cell per degrees C (typical), requires optional sensor model TCS-12/24 Battery Banks: 3 (Recommended Battery Type/Capacity: Gel-Cell, Flooded or Sealed Lead-Acid, 120-600 A-H) Status Indicators/Signal Outputs Output OK, No Output, Check System, Battery Too Hot, Total Output Bar Graph, Output Voltage Test Points, Contacts for Optional Remote Alarm) Temperature Rating 0-60 degrees C; derate linearly from 100% output @ 50 degrees C to 80% output @ 60 degrees C) Mechanical Specifications: Case Material: Powder Coated Stainless Steel Weight: With three modules installed: 34 lbs/15.5 kg.
