EBC48

External Rapid Battery Charger (48VDC). Board

Altronix EBC48 external battery charger provides rapid charging of back-up batteries. Ideal when intergrated with Altronix NetWay Spectrum Hardened Switches working with POE240 or POE360/POE367 power supplies to recharge 32AH in under 8 hours.
Perfect for applications where constant power isn’t available (switched power) such as a light pole or other location. During the day, when the power is off, the battery will power the devices (up to 100W total) for 16 hours. When power is restored, it’s routed to the devices first and any excess is used to rapidly recharge the battery. EBC48 is a great alternative to expensive solar deployments, trenching to achieve a pathway for traditional electrical connectivity.
