CTEK Battery Chargers
The rapid development of vehicle electronics has placed increasing higher demands on batteries. Modern chargers and modern charging are needed to keep up with this demand. A 3A charger of today is equivalent to a conventional 10A charger of a few years ago.
CTEK's patented 8-step charging not only makes charging more efficient, but also ensures charging is carried out correctly, preventing early failure of modern batteries.
There are 3 main causes of shortened battery lifetimes:
- Sulphating, due to undercharged batteries
- Acid stratification: due to deeply discharged batteries
- Drying out harmful overcharging "boils off" battery fluids
Regular care and maintenance charging of batteries, counteracts early battery failure, ensures that capacity is retained and extends the lifetime of batteries. The lifetime of a battery depends on battery type, age and condition. Taking good care of your battery can treble battery lifetimes.
CTEK battery chargers are different. They were the first to employ "SMART" technology which uses "switched mode" electronics as found in computers, making them more flexible and accurate than linear transformers. This enables CTEK chargers to have dedicated cycles for different battery technologies and problems. This also allows them to be powerful, yet small.
KEY FEATURES AND BENEFITSSafer for people - CTEK Chargers are foolproof to connect, spark proof, reverse polarity protected and there is no need for the battery to be disconnected. Safer for vehicles - CTEK Chargers regulate voltage to protect sensitive electronic and audio equipment. CTEK chargers provide fully automatic charging, maintenance and battery care. There is no need for specific battery knowledge or charging technology to get the most from a CTEK charger. The patented desulphation function revives drained batteries and extends battery life; float/pulse charging allows 'set and forget' for months at a time without harming the battery. CTEK chargers are tough, shockproof, weatherproof, dustproof, approved for outdoor use (IP44-IP65 depending on the model) and can operate in temperatures from -20° to +50°C. With CTEK quality is guaranteed. All chargers have a warranty of either 2 or 5 years depending on the model. Customer care and support is available on line or via telephone. CTEK chargers are independently tested, endorsed and used by prestige brands. |
