Sterling ProCharge Ultra Battery Charger

The Sterling ProCharge Ultra all-digital marine battery chargers run on any global AC power source between 90-260VAC, require less input power, produce less waste heat, and still have a remarkably small footprint and are lightweight. They have 11 pre-programmed charging curves as well as one user-customizable battery profile. Check the real time voltage or current output on the digital display or on the optional remote control that can be either surface-, recess-, or flush-mounted over 30 feet away from the charger.

That the Sterling ProCharge Ultra resembles the ProMariner ProNautic is no accident - they were co-engineered and are jointly manufactured - the labels are the only difference. Until recently, the ProMariner chargers were sold in the North American market and the Sterling chargers were sold in Europe and the UK. Sterling has recently begun marketing in the U.S., and offers full support and a 5-year warranty from their operations center in Maine.

The Sterling ProCharge Ultra charger line was awarded Sail Magazine's 2011 Pittman Innovation Award in the Systems Category. It is one of the most advanced marine battery chargers on the market.

Features include:

• Global Input Power - The Sterling ProCharge Ultra marine battery charger will operate anywhere in the world! By design, this battery charger will operate with any input of 90-260VAC (40-80Hz) automatically.
• 11 pre-programmed battery charge profiles, including profiles for LiFePO4, GEL, AGM, Calcium, & Flooded Lead Acid Batteries.
• One custom, user-programmable battery charge profile. Can be set from the charger itself with no need for a computer.
• Four Step Battery Charging Profile extends the life of your batteries by ensuring a full charge & conditioning, as well as entering a float mode when charging is complete to protect against overcharging your batteries.
• One common negative and three positive battery posts allows the user to charge 1, 2, or 3 battery banks to accommodate almost any installation.
• Two Digital Meters displaying real-time current and voltage measurements.
• One power meter showing % of charger capacity being used as well as power capacity remaining.
• Active Power Factor Correction (PFC) up to 0.99pf, ensuring efficient power conversion, increasing efficiency by nearly 40% over non-PFC battery chargers.
• Additionally, new synchronized rectification output increases the efficiency of this charger up to 10% over traditional chargers.
• High Voltage de-sulfation cycle for customers with flooded lead acid batteries.
• Low activity stand-by mode to increase battery life.
