EEEBC130V 130V BC-2500 Emergency Battery Charger
Overview
The EEEBC130V BC-2500 is a portable emergency battery charger developed to maintain critical 130VDC battery systems when permanent charging equipment is unavailable. It is well suited for outages, scheduled service, commissioning work, charger replacement, and temporary DC power support.
Engineered around Eagle Eye’s BC-2500 charging platform, the unit packages dependable float-charging performance inside a durable travel case. Its compact, field-ready configuration allows it to be stored, shipped, and placed into service quickly without the transportation requirements of a DOT trailer.
Four iPM power modules are included with the 130V model, providing up to 16A of DC output. High operating efficiency, low output ripple, conformal coated electronics, fanless convection cooling, integrated alarms, and network connectivity support reliable operation in utility, UPS, industrial, and other mission-critical DC applications.
Universal single-phase AC input automatically accommodates a wide range of power sources, while included DC cables with proprietary strain relief simplify field connections. Ethernet-based monitoring and alarm capabilities give operators greater visibility and help accelerate response when backup battery charging is needed.
