Smart battery chargers speed to full power
AccelRate's SC series of chargers will fully recharge a battery five times faster than conventional chargers, without requiring any modifications to the battery.
This will then allow delivery to end-use customers.
AccelRate's Smart Chargers (SC) are a technologically advanced product that can return a discharged lead-acid battery to a full state-of-charge in two hours - five times faster than conventional technology; prevent damage to battery through improved heat management; automatically detect and adjust to battery voltage, capacity, condition and state-of-charge; adapt to battery inventories regardless of age; and, provide reduced energy use and capital equipment costs.
"The AccelRate Smart Charger is billed as the perfect solution for multi-shift industrial operations as they can radically reduce their capital and operating expenses", said Reimar Koch, AccelRate President and CEO.
"Using AccelRate SC products, the initial battery purchase outlay would be decreased, battery handling steps would be cut, as would the amount of valuable space required to house additional back-up batteries and chargers".
"Battery life would also be maximised, and maintenance and emissions lowered".
