Input power source requirement
When the charger runs on its maximum power, the input power should be enough to run the charger safely and effectively. If the input voltage is lower than 11.0V, the charger may be shut down or limited by its circuit power. To utilize the charger’s maximum power, the input power source should have good power above 15V and 35A. If the input voltage is lower than 12V, the charger’s charging power can be limited by 200W.

Operating software
Every operating program in the unit is controlled with mutual links and communications to prevent every possible error, so it introduces the maximum safety, such as input voltage warning, reverse polarity protection and Lithium cell-count input error warning. The entire firmware can be upgraded via USB from internet download at our web page, when there needs to be changed.

High-power and high-performance circuit
BC8HP employs the circuit that has maximum output power of 280Watts. As a result, it can charge or discharge up to 27 cells of NiCd/NiMH and 8 series of Lithium batteries with maximum current of 12A. Furthermore, the cooling system is so efficient that can hold such a power without any trouble running the circuit or the operating program.

Accept various types of Lithium battery
BC6HP can accept three types of Lithium batteries - LiIo, LiPo and LiFe. They have different characteristics by their chemistry. You can select any one of them that you are going to process before the job. For their specifications, refer 'Warnings and safety notes' section.

Individual voltage balancer for Lithium batteries inside
BC8HP has an individual cell voltage balancer inside. So it does not need any balancer separately when charging Lithium batteries (LiIo/LiPo/LiFe) for voltage balancing.

Accept various types of Lithium battery
BC8HP can accept three types of Lithium batteries - LiIo, LiPo and LiFe. They have different characteristics by their chemistry. You can select any one of them that you are going to process before the job. For their specifications, refer 'Warnings and safety notes' section.

Lithium battery 'Fast' and 'Storage' mode
 You can charge Lithium battery for special purposes. 'Fast' charge reduces the charging time of Lithium battery and 'Storage' mode controls the final voltage of the battery to be suit for long time storage.

Maximum safety
Delta-peak sensitivity : The automatic charge termination program works on the principle of the Delta-peak voltage detection. (NiCd/NiMH)

Auto-charge current limit : When charging NiCd or NiMH at 'AUTO' current mode, you can set the upper limit of charge current to avoid from feeding high current to the battery. This is very useful when charging the low impedance and small capacity NiMH battery in 'AUTO' mode.

Capacity limit : The charging capacity always calculated by multiple of the charging current and time. If the charging capacity exceeds the limit the process will be terminated automatically when you set the maximum value.

Temperature limit : The temperature of the battery on charging will rise by its internal chemical reaction. If you set the limit of temperature the process will be expired forcibly when the limit has been reached.

Processing time limit : You can also restrain the maximum processing time to prevent from any possible defect.

Input power monitor : To protect the car battery using as input power from being damaged, its voltage always being monitored. If it drops below the lower limit the process will be ended automatically.

Automatic cooling fan : The electric cooling fan comes into action automatically only when the internal temperature of the unit is raised.

Data store/load
For users convenience, it can store maximum 10 data of different batteries. You can establish the data contains program setting of the battery to charge or discharge. These data can be called back at any time you need and the process can be executed without program setting.

PC based analysis using USB communication
For technical expert, BC8HP offers PC based program can analysis the characteristic of the battery by USB port. It shows a graph of voltage, current, capacity and temperature curves. It also shows the individual voltage of each cell in the Lithium battery pack.

Accessories:

-EAC110: Temperature sensor cable (Optional)
-EAC117: 4mm gold banana plug with silicon cable (Standard)
-EAC400: USB cable set for PC link (Standard)
-EAC134: Balance adaptor board for Align-type LiPo (Standard)
