Description

RCB-1600 series is a single output 1600W AC/DC charger with 1U low profile (41mm). It is an intelligent charger with embedded charging curves which are programmable. Users are also able to adjust the charging voltage and current via the built-in potentiometer, output programmable functions, PMBus, or CANBus to charge different types of batteries, such as lead-acid batteries and li-ion batteries. Various protection mechanisms as well as the temperature compensation function are provided to assure the normal and safe operations. The rack-mountable attribute allows RCB-1600 to perfectly suit the charging, backup or constant current source applications exploiting the rack architecture or central management.
