HIGH PROTECTION
FULLY CONTROLLED THYRISTOR / IGBT RECTIFIER MODULE

COMPLETE ISOLATION
PMI DC Chargers are fully isolated since an isolation transformer is placed in between the input and output and because the
DC current is controlled by a DC current module. Therefore, the load is always safe even at high input voltage and congested
mains conditions. In addition, the failure risk is minimized as semi-conductors are used for the rectifier. Standard L-C filters at
the output maintain safe charging of the battery groups.

PARALLELING
The Charger has a modular design to provide service and maintenance
simplicity. The outputs of the Battery Chargers can be connected in
parallel. The parallel system can be active load sharing or hot-standby.
Besides this, parallel system can be placed in one unit industrial cabin
as seen from the picture on the right side or they can be placed in
separate cabins based on the requirement.

A1 PROTECTIONS H
The input and output of the charger are protected against improper
use and line disturbances electronically. Input and output can be
switched by circuit breakers individually. It has self-protection against
over temperature. The alarm contacts can be used for external system
in the case of any anomaly. The output is fully isolated from the AC
line input. The Charger has a modular design to provide service and
maintenance simplicity.

DC RIPPLE < 1%
T Input and output are protected with MCBs and all settings like boost
charge, floating charge and battery charge current can be adjusted via
front panel. DC output is filtered by L/C, so DC ripple at full load always
lower than 1% to increase battery life. All rectifiers have standards low-
battery and rectifier failure alarm.
