An Intelligent Charging Assistant

Smart sensors and intelligent displays make battery charging easy, safe and reliable.

Integrated voltage sensing identifies a battery upon connection and automatically applies the correct charging profile, enabling one charger to take the place of many.

A colour display and LED indicator lights inform operators of charging status, cooling time, equalising and watering needs at a glance.

Connectivity Provides Seamless Integration

Easy access to the built-in web-browser accessible interface through the supported Wi-Fi, Ethernet and USB connections allows you to configure, monitor and manage the charger remotely.

Integrate with monitoring and management systems - such as Crown's optional V-Force Battery Monitoring Identification Device (BMID) - for additional levels of reporting and control when charging lead-acid batteries.
