CENTURY’S NEW RANGE

Century Batteries has released a new range of battery chargers and maintainers

Leading battery manufacturer Century Batteries recently unveiled its updated range of battery chargers and maintainers, with a brand new 25-amp model joining the lineup.
The Century charger range caters to AGM, GEL, EFB, Flooded and Calcium SMF lead-acid batteries – with the six, 12 and 25-amp models also gaining compatibility with the latest Lithium (LFP) batteries.
Suitable for charging batteries from 3Ah up to 500Ah, the Century charger range includes features such as a nine-stage charging process, selectable output current, reverse polarity protection, and an eco-power mode to reduce energy consumption.
In addition, all chargers incorporate a patented rejuvenation feature which uses peak pulse reconditioning to repair heavily discharged lead-acid batteries.
Joining the range is the new Century CC1225-XLi – a 25-amp charger best suited to charging high-capacity Deep Cycle batteries.
Century Batteries says this makes it perfect for charging and maintaining the latest Lithium (LFP) batteries – like Century’s Lithium Pro range – along with other high-capacity AGM and GEL batteries rated at up to 500Ah.
The selectable charge rate also increases the flexibility of the unit, with 25A, 15A and 2A modes available for charging smaller batteries.
The popular six-amp CC1206 charger has also been updated, with the new model also gaining compatibility for charging Lithium (LFP) batteries.
Just like its bigger 12A and 25A siblings, the Century 6A is capable of activating on batteries reading as low as two volts and initiating the charging process on heavily discharged batteries.
The three chargers can also be used on Lithium (LFP) batteries where the Battery Monitoring System (BMS) has entered “sleep mode.”
For this situation, the chargers feature a dedicated Lithium LFP Wake Up mode specifically designed to wake up the BMS and commence charging.
Backed by a comprehensive five-year warranty, the Century charger range also has a built-in “battery maintainer” mode, which automatically engages once the battery has reached full charge.
In this mode, the charger can be left connected 24/7 to periodically trickle charge batteries from 3Ah up to 750Ah, to ensure they remain fully charged.
This is ideal for lead-acid batteries which see occasional or infrequent usage, such as boat, motorcycle and ride-on mower starting batteries, or deep cycle battery systems installed in caravans or camper trailers.
