This new Pro charge Ultra Lite is aimed at the budget sensitive market. A common question shall be, what are the key differences between the Ultra and the Ultra Lite?:

1) The Ultra is larger due to it meeting the ABYC 40 Deg C+ high ambient temperature performance standards.
2) The Lite has an operational range in the 20 Deg C+ (a more common standard for non ABYC), thus, in a smaller body.
3) The Lite displays less information on the front panel but still a lot more than its competitors.
4) Although built to UL standards, including fire resistant plastics etc, the Lite is NOT UL certified.
5) The Lite is not CEC certified, the Ultra is.
6) The Lite has temperature compensation, however, unlike the Ultra, the sensor is optional.
7) Cost, the Lite is lower cost
8) Outputs: The Lite has a max of 2 outputs suitable for most operations the Ultra has 3.
9) PCU Lite has 2 years warranty the Ultra has 5 years.

230VAC performance is 30A DC | 20A DC
110VAC performance is 27A DC | 20A DC
unit temperature dependent.

Truly Global Application and perfect for generators. The Pro Charge Ultra Lite shall work at AC voltages (80-270VAC and 40-70Hz) and DC voltages (130-320V).

Comprehensive 18 LED front panel

The dual function nature of the LED panel shall also provide voltage information, charging profile statuses and warning statuses.

One of the world’s most efficient chargers. This is courtesy of active power factor correction (PFC 0.99-1). and synchronised rectification  The Pro Charge Ultra Lite is rated at over  90% efficient. PFC is an extremely important feature. Non-active PFC chargers are approximately 65% efficient.

Battery daisy chain multiple battery high temperature system shutdown ( optional ) .
Where large numbers of batteries are being used our digital temperature sensor can be linked in a chain to shutdown the battery charger in event of any battery’s exceeding 50 deg C.

8 pre-programmed charging profiles for AGM, Gel, sealed / flooded, calcium and lithium (LiFePO4) batteries. We also include a fully customizable option to allow the user to programme their own profile via the front panel.

Night time setting allows the unit to run at ½ power for a fixed time frame so the fan noise is reduced to a minimum.

Float Modes and Energy Saving Modes.
You can force this charger into float mode (mid ~13V) intermittently or indefinitely. You can also put the charger into an Energy Saving mode. This mode saves energy by dropping the output voltage down to the voltage of a full battery (~12.8V). This ensures the battery is full and that the charger acts as a power supply when a load is applied to the battery.

Larger voltage / current requirements?

The Pro Charge Ultra Lite series can be put in series or parallel with other Pro Charge Ultras. This is possible due to  the chargers  digital dynamic charging ability.

This ensures the battery is full and that the charger acts as a power supply when a load is applied to the battery.

Battery temperature sensing compensation and remote control (optional). Unlike our competitors this unit has battery temperature sensing and remote control port. The sensor and remote are optional extras. Temp sensor below (TSAY).

1/2 current mode. Reduce the charger’s current by 50%.

Perfect for generator use. Due to its active PFC tolerance of AC input it shall run from crude sine wave forms – typical from generators.

Power Reduction you can set the charger to run at lower power outputs to complement a wider range of generators and low shore power connections.
