Industrial battery charger

Chargeur de batterie industriel de GENTEC

Gentec industrial battery chargers (or Gentec rectifiers) have been designed to provide a very reliable power source for batteries and their connected loads.

 They can be used with any type of industrial stationary battery. SCR (thyristors) technology with the conduction angle controlled by microprocessor (or by analog circuit on some series) is used. The charger capacity ranges from 10 to 600 amperes.

  • 25 years of experience!
  • More than 1000 installations
  • Customer support from a large team of engineers and technicians!

 Several models or series such as the famous new RS SERIES are available.


Industrial Battery Charger, RS SERIES

New Series!

This series is the logical choice for your auxiliary DC systems needs!

 This series is the result of more than 25 years experience in designing and manufacturing battery chargers. The RS SERIES has been designed to fulfill the needs of today's industrial electrical and public utilities substations.

Its very competitive pricing and its modern design, combined with "Gentec" renowned quality and customer support make it the logical choice for your auxiliary DC systems.

In addition to the traditional functions of standard battery chargers, the RS SERIES chargers meet the industry's present needs to minimize operating costs and required maintenance time. Special care has been taken to include the features required to optimize the life span of the connected stationary battery.

  • Optimal battery charging
  • Battery monitoring and automatic testing
  • Remote monitoring using network access (MODBUS protocol)
  • History of alarms
  • Harmonic reduction on the network
  • Optional redundant chargers
  • Life span of more than 25 years
  • Very competitive pricing
  • Customer support from a large team of engineers and technicians

Industrial Battery Charger Main Features, RS SERIES:

  • Output voltage 125VDC (other optional output voltages available: 24, 48, 110, 120, 220 or 250VDC)
  • Three-phase rectifier using 6 SCR (thyristors) with a conduction angle computed by microprocessor → lowers the harmonics on the network
  • Battery output voltage regulation by compensating the voltage loss between the charger and the battery → allows for an optimal adjustment of the battery voltage
  • Optional redundant (parallel) chargers
  • Can be used with any type of industrial battery
  • Cabinet containing a complete VDC system available (charger, battery and breaker panel)
  • Graphical interface on a large LCD screen (voltmeters, ammeters, history of last 200alarms, menus, secure access, etc.)
  • c/CSA/us certified by CSA C22.2 No C107.2-01 and listed by UL Std 1012.

 

Note: Most of the models are certified and listed, contact Gentec to confirm.

 



Industrial battery charger, other series

MA SERIES

This series is used in master-slave redundant chargers. Each system is made of two (2) battery chargers. Normally, the master charger powers the load. If the master charger fails, then the load is automatically transferred to the slave charger.

 

MD SERIES

This series is also used in master-slave redundant chargers. Moreover, the system is equipped with an RS-485 communication port for remote communication (slave MODBUS-RTU communication protocol), a log for reviewing the last 200 events or alarms, and an LCD panel displaying various menus
