Victron Centaur Charger

Victron Energy’s new Centaur battery charger line has been designed to be a truly global product. The main characteristics of this new range from the well-known Dutch manufacturer are its compliance with global norms and its entry/exit specifications.

Designed to comply with both CE and UL standards in the European Union, the Centaur model range accepts automatic voltages ranging from 90 to 265 VCA at 50/60 Hz, allowing them to be used in any area of the world. Contrary to other products that claim to have universal acceptance, the Centaur line maintains full salidability within the specified range. The Centaur model also has an entry range of 90-400 VCC, making it an ideal CC-CC converter for a diesel electric system.

Other features include fully automatic charging in three stages, which ensures that the batteries are fully charged at all times, as well as three exit ports for multi-battery configurations that will fit the majority of standard installations. The range includes 12V and 24V models with current ratings ranging from 16A to 100A.

The fact that the same product is suitable for every vessel, regardless of market, is a significant advantage for both the astiller and the owner of the vessel.

Without compromising the quality of the Victron Energy brand, this range is comprehensive, competitive, and applicable in any area of the world.

Quality without compromise

Quality without complacency Centaur battery chargers are simple, sturdy, and cost-effective, yet they do not compromise our high quality standards and give the greatest results that today’s technology enables. Heat, humidity, and salt spray are no match for the epoxy-coated aluminum enclosures and stainless steel mountings.

An acrylic varnish is used to preserve the electronic circuitry against oxidation. Temperature sensors guarantee that all components work within the defined limits, decreasing output power if necessary during harsh ambient conditions.

Universal input 90 to 265 volts

Centaur chargers take a very wide supply voltage range, from 90 to 265 volts and 45 to 65 Hertz, with no adjustments required. They can thus function in unstable power supply networks and are compatible with all current voltages and frequencies.

3 full power outputs

Three independent outlets enable the charging of three sets of batteries at the same time. Each output is capable of delivering the rated charging power.

Temperature correction in three stages of charging

The Centaur charges at full power for 4 hours until the output current reaches 70% of rated power. The charger then enters float mode. The charging voltage is compensated using an inbuilt temperature sensor of – 2 mV per oC per element.

Load voltage selector

An integrated switch provides for simple selection of voltages appropriate for the three primary battery types (lead-acid, gel, and AGM).

Charging current indicator

An ammeter on the front panel allows the performance of the charger towards the batteries to be known at all times.
