Many vehicle owners expect the electric generator
to completely recharge leisure batteries during the
drive. When the battery is beginning to fail, however,
they quickly realise it often doesn’t work that way. The
reason is insufficient cabling (supply cables too long, cross
section too small), as frequently encountered in caravans.
Electronics specialist WAECO has developed a neat
solution for this problem: the PerfectCharge IU
charging converter, available in three performance
categories.
The IU charging converter is simply integrated into the wiring of the
starter and leisure batteries. Raising the charging voltage to 14.2 volts,
it ensures optimal charging during the drive.
The converter can be switched on or off by an external control signal, e.g. the
D+ from the generator. You can also use a 12-volt switch.
Moreover, the charging converter stabilises the voltage supply. This
makes it ideal for sensitive 12-volt appliances (e.g. navigation systems, LCD
monitors), which require a constant and stable voltage.
To benefit from the stabilising effect, the IU charging converter is integrated
into the supply cord of the appliance. The unit compensates for over- and
under-voltage in a range between 8 and 16 volts, thus preventing failure of
or damage to the appliance.
