Overview

The Samlex America SEC-1215UL is a 12v 15-Amp 3-Bank automatic switch mode battery charger. Switch-mode technology chargers consume less AC input current than a standard charger making the SEC-1215UL highly efficient. The charger can be used worldwide allowing for two AC input voltages: By default, the unit accepts 120 VAC, or the unit can be switched to 230 VAC via an internal jumper change.

The SEC-1215UL features a three-bank design allowing the charger to charge each 12-volt bank simultaneously. The charger is suitable for 12v lead acid batteries, including Flooded, AGM, or Gel cell batteries, and features two charging modes:

• 3-Stage charging (default) – Features a Bulk, Absorption, and Float stage and is meant to be used for batteries that are not under load while charging.
• 2-Stage Charging – Features a Bulk and Float stage and is ideal for applications where the charger is used as a power supply supplementing the load while charging the battery pack.

Typical applicatons:

• Automotive
• Recreational vehicles
• Marine communications sites
• Battery back-up systems
