The battery charger with battery allows to recharge much more quickly and completely a park of batteries from the alternator.
Its assembly is simple and some models provide voltage conversions.
| Desired effect | Fast (2 to 5 times faster) and complete recharging of batteries from the alternator |
|---|---|
| Charging cycle applied | Three-phase charging cycle (IUoU) with temperature compensation (temperature probe supplied) |
| Connection | Without disassembling the alternator (connection similar to a relay) |
| Compatibility | Compatible with all types of batteries including lithium(9 cycles available) and alternators |
| System voltage Input / Output | 12 Volts / 24 Volts (ensures voltage conversion) |
| Dimensions / Weight | 190 x 160 x 70 / 1.4 kg |
| Input current | 12V / 70A Maximum regardless of alternator power |
| Load current | 24V / 35A Maximum independently of the alternator power (limits the current which is useful for some batteries especially lithium) |
| Regenerative brakes | Compatible with regenerative brakes |
| Other features | Allows to reduce the charging voltage of some alternators having a too high charging voltage especially during the floating phase |
| Option | Control panel |
The battery charger is a product that has become increasingly popular in recent years, the Sterling range has expanded considerably to meet this growing demand. Like the alternator charger, it ensures optimal charging of service batteries from the alternator and is very easy to install.
Some models provide voltage conversion, so it is possible to recharge a 24 V battery such as the bow thruster from a 12 V alternator or recharge a 12 V service battery directly from a 24 V alternator.
Also note that battery to battery chargers allow for current limiting, this feature is useful to respect the charging constraints of Lithium batteries or to limit the alternator's power output and preserve it from premature wear.
This new model also allows:

| The battery charger is connected in the same way as a relay. It allows the efficient charging of the connected battery bank from the alternator. The current entering the battery bank is limited by the nominal value of the device. This new model has the same characteristics as the previous range in a more compact housing. Compared to the previous generation, it incorporates the possibility of reducing the charging voltage independently of the alternator voltage (some current alternators have a charging voltage that is too high to ensure the recharging (especially during maintenance) of the service batteries. It is compatible with the Euro 6 standard (regenerative brakes) and is easy to install even in this case. |
