The Victron Centaur Charger is a rugged, three-bank charger that powers three battery banks from a single unit, delivering reliable, independent charging for multi-battery systems. Designed for marine, RV, and off-grid installations, it supports global deployment with a wide input range.
-
Three isolated outputs: Each output can deliver the full 40 A, enabling independent charging for up to three battery banks without cross-interference.
-
24 V per bank at 40 A: Delivers 24 VDC per bank across three isolated outputs for simultaneous, balanced charging.
-
Wide input range: Universal 90–265 VAC input (50/60 Hz) and 90–400 V DC support for global deployment without extra power conversion.
-
Three-stage charging with temperature compensation: Charges in bulk until current tapers to 70% of rated amps, then transitions through a 4-hour timer to float, with temperature compensation to protect battery health.
-
Internal temperature sensor: Adjusts charge voltage by –2 mV/°C per cell to protect batteries under varying temperatures.
-
Smart battery settings: DIP-switch selects optimum voltages for Flooded Lead-Acid, Gel, or AGM batteries, ensuring compatibility and peak performance.
-
Rugged construction: Aluminium epoxy powder-coated case with a drip shield and stainless steel fixings; protective acrylic coating guards against heat, humidity, and salt air.
-
Automatic protection and reliability: Temperature sensors and smart current management automatically reduce output under extreme conditions, promoting long-term operation.
-
Easy installation and dealer support: Designed for simple integration in a variety of systems; dealer support is available for returns, repairs, and assistance.
-
Prop 65 warning: This product carries a Prop 65 warning.
The Centaur Charger simplifies multi-bank charging by keeping each battery bank isolated, preventing cross-talk and reducing wiring complexity. Its universal input range makes it suitable for global deployments, while the three-stage charging with temperature compensation helps maximize battery lifespan and readiness across temperature ranges. The rugged aluminum enclosure, drip shield, and protective coating deliver reliable performance in harsh environments, and automatic protections continuously monitor temperature and current to safeguard your system. With DIP-switch battery settings, you can tailor voltages to Flooded Lead-Acid, Gel, or AGM chemistries for safe, optimized charging. Easy installation and active dealer support provide confidence from setup to service.
