DIALOcharge
Download Specifications

The WOODS DIALOcharge is a sophisticated
electronic manually operated charger for most types of batteries. It employs a
primary phase-shift controlled triac to precisely supply charging voltages and
currents during the recharge cycle. The DIALOcharge successfully recovers deeply
discharged batteries. The DIALOcharge covers a variable range of battery
voltages which provides charging flexibility in the workshop arena (eg: a 24V
DIALOcharge will charge batteries of any voltage from single 2V cells to 24V
systems). Due to the precise power control provided by the DIALOcharge, it may
be used for fast recharging of operational batteries or for overnight trickle
charge situations.
POWER
240V ac mains or generator supply - While the mains input is
predetermined for Australian conditions with a mild variance in the supply
volts & hertz, remote use is available via generated power with an acceptable
level THD% tolerance. Also available in 110Vac by order.
Available in 12V, 24V, 30V, 36V and 48Volt - A vast range of battery
terminal voltages are available 12Vdc to beyond 48Vdc up to 144Vdc.
Available in 15A, 30A, 60A and 120Amp - The larger your battery system
and loadings, the larger your charger should be to quickly bring depleted
batteries back into service.
PROTECTION
Circuit breakers on input and output - Over current protection on both
the mains input and the battery output is offered for immediate protection.
The manual resettable swtich circuit type breakers are of industrial grade.
Temperature controlled fan cooling - The rectifier assembly is
protected by an automatic thermoswitch. If the temperature rises above its
preset level the fan will be enabled untill it has cooled the system to below
its lower setting; thus disengaing the cooling fan. This extends the fans’
operating life.
Rectifier over-temperature shutdown - The second temperature
protection device is also on the rectifier assembly. If, due to severe loading
or other fault, the temperature exceeds its level it will shut the battery
charger down untill the cooling fan brings the temperature back within safe
operating levels.
Transformer over-temperature shutdown - The third temperature
protection device is deep within core of the power transformer. Activation of
this device indicates serious overheating and will shutdown operation of the
battery charger untill the cooling fan brings the temperature back within safe
operating levels.
CONTROL
- Manual phase-shifted control - The primary control circuitry is
manually controlled by the user. Employing heady-duty passive components
provides seamless and precise power control from zero to maximum output.
- Voltage Regulation and Current Limiting - Combined with the power
control, the DIALOcharge incorporates electronic voltage regulation and
current limiting for complete charging protection.
BATTERIES
Wide range - due to the flexibility of the control
hardware, nearly all large batteries flooded batteries can be recharged with a
DIALOcharge, eg: Wet Lead-Acid, Deep Cycle Lead Acid, Lead-calcium, Wet Ni-Cad,
Genesis®/Optima®, etc.
DISPLAY
Metering - An accurate electronically driven analog moving-coil meter
is fitted as standard. The DualMeter display the charging current, but the
battery volts may be displayed at the press of a button. They are large and easy-to-read
with wide angle visibility.
CABINET
Strong, durable, attractive - Powder-coated zinc-annealed steel
cabinets.
Mountabilty - Pre-drilled mounting holes means the DIALOcharge may be
mounted either on a bench or shelf by the base or on a wall or bulkhead by the
back of the cabinet.
Portability - Due to the compactness of the cabinets, DIALOcharge
units are portable if needed.
COMPLIANCE
Safety Standards - IEC33-2-29 (AS3350.2.29), IEC61558-1:1997
(AS/NZS61558.1:2000)
EMC Standads - EN55014 (CISPR14, AS1044), EN55022 (CISPR22, AS3548),
EN50082-1
IP Rating - IP21
