Bel Fuse recently announced the release of its BCN25-1000 Series — a 25 kW, liquid-cooled battery charger that converts 3-phase ac voltage to dc voltage.
The new charger is designed to be a compact solution for medium to heavy-duty vehicles and underground mining applications. It’s built from the latest, high-quality components. Ideal for industrial trucks, excavators, cranes, and the like where 1,000 Vac is present, the series comes in two options: the 350-8 unit with a dc output of 240 – 430 V / 60 A max and the 700-8 unit with a dc output of 480 – 860 V / 30 A max.
The ac 3-phase input has a range of 800 to 1100 V and output power of up to 25 kW, parallel to 100 kW, making it suitable for use as an off-board charger with a typical efficiency of 92%, eliminating the need for transformers to lessen overall vehicle weight and cost. Featuring over-temperature, output overvoltage, and overcurrent protections, the charger is SAE 1455 compliant for harsh environments and includes a J1939-compliant CAN for control and monitoring.
BCN25-1000 series products are UL-recognized components, IEC certified, and water resistant to IP65 and IP67 ratings. Please contact a Bel Fuse representative for full details.
