Victron Buck Boost DC-DC Converter 50A

Features:

• DC-DC Converter
• Charges 12/24V Battery in Vehicles with a Smart Alternator
• Engine Running Detection System
• Input & Output LED Status Indicators
• Completely Programmable

The Buck-Boost DC-DC Converter is a DC-DC converter for charging a 12V or 24V service battery in vehicles with a smart alternator. The converter will charge the auxiliary battery with a pre-set charge voltage, eliminating high voltages (e.g. Mercedes: 15.4V) and low voltages.

More Product Features:

"Engine Running" Detection System:

Deep discharge of the vehicle's starting battery is avoided by a built-in ‘engine running’ detection system. Instead of this detection system, the converter can also be activated by means of a programmable input (D+, CAN bus or (+)15 connection).

Fully Programmable:

The converter can be fully programmed by means of a simple and user-friendly PC application. (USB type A male to USB type B male cable needed)

One Product for 12V, 24V and 12/24V Systems:

The converter can be programmed to charge a 12V or a 24V auxiliary battery from either a 12V or a 24V alternator and starter battery.

Charge Current and Input Current Limiter:

The output current is determined by the following factors:

• The maximum charge current setting.
• The maximum input current setting.
• The maximum operating temperature limit of the converter.

Input Status Indication (LED): 

Green: converter on:

Yellow: input voltage below the threshold, converter off. 

Red: over temperature, converter off.

Blue, quick flash: engine running, the converter will start after a preset delay.

Blue, slow flash: the converter is OFF and activation is blocked due to low input voltage.

Output Status Indication (LED):

Green: converter off, battery voltage normal. 

Yellow: converter off, battery voltage low.

Red: converter off, battery discharged or not connected. 

Purple: converter on.

Applications:

Marine

RV's

Caravans

Off-Grid Systems

Tiny Houses

Cabins
