Offers energy cost savings, less emissions and more power capacity
The Maverick's TCC 2.0 controller allows for lower battery recharge temperature due to a very low ripple current. |
Applied Energy Solutions announces its first true "green" energy battery charger for the motive power industry. The Maverick™is a high efficiency charger that minimizes the amount of power drawn, giving users of electric utility vehicles real cost savings, reduced CO2 emissions and additional power capacity. It is available in conventional, opportunity, and rapid charge start rates.
The Maverick's TCC 2.0 controller allows for lower battery recharge temperature due to a very low ripple current. In addition, the IGBT switching efficiencies at medium and high power are higher and the drive circuitry is simpler. This means that the Maverick„ ™ can be used at higher frequencies without the audio noise found in conventional chargers.

Additional significant energy savings can be realized by utilizing the unit's programmable controls that enable users to stagger the charger start time outside high cost peak demand periods.
Additional features include:
- Delayed start from 15 minutes to 4 hours in 15 minute intervals
- Equalize can be done manually, automatically with day/time setting, or every 5 cycles
- Auto refresh charge every 24 hours
- Programmable charge termination when battery voltage reaches gassing
- Remote Control Interface
- Auto start with five second delay
- Auto shutdown when 80% or final charge exceeds time limit, for excessive voltage or charge current irregularities, and when the maximum battery temperature is exceeded
- Digital readout displays and LED charge status indicators
