The operating program in
this charger is executed with mutual links and communications with every
component to prevent any possible error, so it introduces the maximum
safety. Especially, the charging algorithm is so multifarious that you
can select the best program to suit your requirement. The operating
software can be upgraded through SUB when it is necessary, by executing
upgrade program at PC. And BC6DX has a large LCD for showing various
information including charge / discharge graphs during the process.
Dual input power
BC6DX employs the circuit that can be
operated at AC (Alternating Current) or DC (Direct Current) input power.
For AC input, the charger contains a AC-DC switching power supplier
inside, which has maximum output power of 60watts for charging. As a
result, it can charge up to 15 cells of NiCd / NiMH and 6 series of
Lithium batteries. There may be the limit of feeding current to a higher
voltage of battery. Please refer 'Maximum circuit power chart'.
- Individual voltage balancer for Lithium batteries inside
BC6DX has an individual-cell-voltage balancer inside. So it does not
need any balancer separately when charging Lithium batteries (LiIo /
LiPo / LiFe) for individual voltage balancing.
Maximum safety
Delta-peak sensitivity: The automatic charge termination program works
on the principle of the Delta-peak voltage detection. (NiCd / NiMH)
Auto-charge current limit: When charging NiCd or NiMH at 'AUTO' current
mode, you can set the upper limit of charge current to avoid from
feeding high current to the battery. This is very useful when charging
the low impedance and small capacity NiMH battery in 'AUTO' mode.
Capacity limit: The charging capacity always calculated by multiple of
the charging current and time. If the charging capacity exceeds the
limit the process will be terminated automatically when you set the
maximum value. Temperature limit: The temperature of the battery on
charging or discharging will be raised by its internal chemical
reaction. If you set the limit of temperature the process will be
expired forcibly when the limit has been reached. Processing time limit:
You can also restrain the maximum processing time to prevent any
possible defect.
- Cyclic charging / discharging for NiMH / NiCd battery
Perform 1 to 10 cycles of charge> discharge or discharge> charge
continually for battery refreshing and balancing.
- PC based analysis using USB communication / Firmware upgrading
For technical expert, BC6DX offers PC based program can analysis the
characteristic of the battery via USB port. It shows a graph of voltage,
current, capacity and temperature curves. It also shows the individual
voltage of each cell in the Lithium battery pack. The firmware can be
upgraded from internet download, when the newer version is released.
