Schauer JAC1212-C - 12V, 12A Intelligent Electronic Charger with Battery Clips

The Schauer JAC1212-C is a Fully Automatic, 3-Stage Electronic Charger with battery clips. This Intelligent Charger may be left connected to the battery indefinitely, keeping it safely charged without danger of overcharging.

The JAC1212-C will charge any type lead acid battery, including conventional flooded cell, maintenance free, deep cycle, gelled-electrolyte, or AGM valve regulated batteries.

The 3-Stage Charge Control provides Modified Constant Current Charge to a constant finishing voltage, then to a float/standby voltage to maintain the battery in a fully charged condition.

Features

• Fully Automatic with Float/Maintenance Mode
• May be left connected to batteries indefinitely
• Charges all types of lead acid batteries
• 115VAC Input
• Mountable, Aluminum case with LED status lights

Operation

• Not intended for use as a DC power supply
• Operate in an environment with proper ventilation
• Do not operate in a damp or wet environment

LED Status Indicator Light in normal charge cycle:
• LED1 (Left): RED – AC power connected, Power Switch ON
• LED2 (Right): YELLOW – Charging, Bulk and Absorption stages - Fan On
• LED2 (Right): GREEN – Battery Charged, Charger in Maintenance Float mode - Fan Off

NOTE: If LED2 is GREEN when initially connected to a known discharged battery (rather than YELLOW, which indicates normal operation), there is a FAULT in the output connection. Check for the following conditions:
1. Charger Not Connected
2. Minimum Battery Voltage Not Sensed (4V minimum)
3. Output Fuse Blown (check the fuse under the twist cap)

NOTE: PLP Battery Supply recommends that chargers in this range have an amperage output that equates to a minimum of approximately 10-15% the AH capacity of the battery being charged. For example, this 12 amp charger would be appropriate for a battery with a maximum AH capacity in the 120AH-180AH range. Chargers with marginally low output ratings may result in unacceptably long battery charge times.
