Projecta IDC50X 12-24V 25A DC Battery Charger
The 50Amp IDC50X DC-DC Battery Charger from Projecta meets the growing demand for reliable off-grid power, ideal for larger batteries like lithium. Building on the award-winning 25Amp IDC25X DC-DC Battery Charger, it delivers advanced performance, robust efficiency, and solar compatibility. Designed for future needs, it’s a game-changer in off-grid power solutions.
- Dual Input Operation: The IDC50X allows for simultaneous dual battery charging from both solar and alternator inputs with no manual switching required. The unit prioritises solar charging as its default and automatically adjusts to the alternator if sunlight is insufficient, reducing the power usage placed on the vehicle’s electrical system.
- Tough & Reliable: IDC50X is rated to IP68 & IP69K, ensuring it can withstand the toughest of conditions. All connections into the IDC50X are done via brass posts and crimped terminals. Ideal for mounting in the engine bay. IDC50X use temperature compensation to ensure the battery receives the correct charge voltage regardless of ambient temperatures. It reduces the voltage in warmer climates to ensure the battery does not boil.
- Smart DC-DC Charging: IDC50X paired with Intelli-IQ supports advanced control of the dual battery system including Bluetooth connectivity to an iOS or Android device. Note Intelli-IQ is sold separately
- Multi-Chemistry Charging: The IDC50X charger supports a variety of battery types, including standard automotive batteries and newer lithium-based batteries. For automotive batteries, it offers tailored charging profiles for AGM, GEL, WET, Calcium, and LiFePO4 chemistries. Users should ensure compatibility with non-automotive lithium batteries by checking the battery’s datasheet to confirm that the IDC50X’s charging profile is suitable before connecting.
- Adaptive Charging: This feature helps protect your starter battery by automatically adjusting the charging current when your car’s engine stops, ensuring the battery is not overstressed during idle periods
- Parallel Charging: IDC50X can be wired in parallel to provide more charging current for larger systems. This flexibility gives users the option to add another IDCX into their system should power requirements change. For example, two IDC25X would provide a total charging current of 50A.
- Future Proof: IDC50X was designed to stand the test of time. When IDC50X is paired with an Intelli-IQ, the firmware can be updated via Bluetooth ensuring IDC50X software is always up to date with the latest features.
- Solar MPPT: The IDCX utilises sophisticated MPPT (Maximum Power Point Tracking) solar regular technology. MPPT maximises the power generated from the solar panels to the auxiliary battery.
- Charging Voltage Loss Compensation: To compensate the voltage drop on the wire leading to the Auxiliary battery, the IDC50X may increase its output voltage while charging. This ensures the charging voltage is at its optimum level.
- Protective Features: The unit has a output capacitor inside, when a battery is connected to the AUX output, there will always be a small spark.
- Reverse Connection Protection: Reverse connection on input and output posts does not damage IDC50X internal circuit. The IDC50X detects reverse connection condition and indicates whether input or output connection is reversed.
- Over And Under Voltage Protection: The charger will automatically shut down if there is an over voltage or under voltage problem.
- Over Temperature Protection: The charger will lower its output current if the temperature of the unit begins to overheat
