DC PowerCube 24 VDC - 150 A

Model 60202002

24 V, 150 A battery charger and ripple-free DC power supply for large DC systems, fed from shore power (up to 3.5 kW) and/or a Genverter PM generator (up to 4.3 kW), with 12 V / 20 A slave output.

Description

The WhisperPower DC PowerCube 24 VDC – 150 A is a high-power battery charger and power supply for large electrical systems with substantial battery banks and high DC demand, in marine and mobile/off-grid applications. It converts grid or generator power into DC for lighting, electronics, pumps and other DC equipment, and with its stable, ripple-free output it can also run as a stand-alone power supply without batteries.

Key features

  • DC output up to 150 A; 12 VDC / 20 A three-step slave output
  • Up to 3.5 kW from shore power; up to 4.3 kW from a Genverter PM generator, with adjustable Genverter load and rpm
  • Dual input: AC grid supplemented by Genverter input; adjustable AC input current
  • Universal input 90–264 VAC, 50/60 Hz, automatic adjustment
  • Battery type set by laptop or dipswitch: AGM, GEL, lead-acid, traction, lithium-ion
  • Short charging time reduces generator running and fuel use
  • Standard analogue panel; WhisperConnect CAN-bus for central monitoring
