BC Battery Controller offers a range of latest generation battery chargers/maintainers, the only one 100% Made in Italy, among the safest and most advanced on the market. It executes in a fully automatic way 8 charging cycles and it can be used for the maintenance and charging of batteries used for vintage/classic cars and motorcycles, in automotive, motorcycle, scooter, camping, powersport and gardening applications as well as for "deep-cycle" batteries. In this range we can find BC K900 EDGE, a smart battery charger and maintainer with 3 selectable programs (6V, 12V and 12V CAN-Bus), which can be connected directly to the 12V DIN.4165 socket mounted as standard on all BMW motorcycles, thanks to its 12V CAN-Bus program and to the included adapter. With its maximum charging current of 1 Amp, it is designed for a complete maintenance of all kinds of 6V and 12V traditional batteries, from lead-acid to AGM, from 1.2 Ah up to 100 Ah. It charges much faster than normal battery chargers, the battery with BC Battery Controller products can last up to 8/10 years, it can repair sulfated batteries and recover batteries from 1.25V (the lowest level on the market) and it is designed for use with vehicles provided with "micro-hybrid" start/stop systems. Driven by a state-of-the-art microcomputer, BC K900 EDGE not only monitors the safety and the effective charging of the battery, but it also automatically reduces energy consumption to a minimum and it guarantees a high level of protection thanks to its spark-proof system and to its protections against overcharge, polarity inversion and short circuit. Fully automatic, it can stay always connected to the battery 24 hours a day / 7 days a week, for whole months, even for years in a totally safe way. Moreover, thanks to its livery, to the simple design and to its compactness and easy handling, this product is super light and really suitable for everyone. Despite its compactness, it is provided with a very sturdy shell that prevents it from slipping and makes it resistant to scratches, falls, accidental crushing, UV rays and water (IP44). The product is delivered with comfortable clamps, practical mounting eyelets to leave installed on the vehicle and and an adapter for cigarette lighter sockets and for 12V DIN.4165 sockets for BMW motorcycles. Thanks to the intuitive LED bar that guarantees also a perfect night vision, BC K900 EDGE gives us real-time information about the battery state of charge and the cycle in progress as well as on the selected program (6V, 12V or 12V CAN-Bus). The product is covered by a 3-year warranty and a premium post-sales service directly from the factory, given the very few cases managed. CONTENT OF THE PACKAGE - 1 Battery Charger and Maintainer BC K900 EDGE - Cable with eyelets (1 for the positive and 1 for the negative) - Cable with clamps (1 for the positive and 1 for the negative) - Universal cigarette lighter plug (and removing the red cap it becomes compatible with a standard CAN Bus 12V DIN 4165 socket mounted on BMW) - Complete instructions CHARGING ALGORITHM - BC K900 EDGE Step 1 - Initialization: it verifies if one or more cells are shorted, to check whether the battery is in a proper condition to be recovered/recharged. Step 2 - Recovery: if the battery is extremely discharged (starting from 1.25V for 12V batteries, 0.63V for 6V batteries), the device tries to recover it, taking it back to a higher voltage compatible with the following step. Step 3 - Soft Charge: if the battery is in significantly discharged, the device provides a light pulsing current to the battery, to overcome the critical phase. Step 4 - Bulk Charge: during this phase, the device provides full current to the battery, recovering about 85-90% of the battery capacity. Step 5 - Desulfation / Absorption: during this phase the device provides a "controlled overcharge" to recover the remaining 10-15% of the battery capacity, through the desulfation/recovery of the lead-acid cells (for low or medium sulfation). Step 6 - Battery Analysis: the device stops providing current for a few tens of minutes and verifies if the battery is able to retain the charge received during the previous charging cycles. The test is periodically repeated at regular intervals. Step 7 - Maintenance: thanks to a specially designed electronic circuit, the device maintains the battery charged during periods of inactivity, without overheating, overcharging and water/electrolyte loss. Step 8 - Equalization: during long term maintenance, every 30 days the device executes an equalization charge to rebalance the battery cells, avoiding phenomena of electrolyte stratification. BC K900 EDGE – FEATURES - 3 charging programs: 6 Volt, 12 Volt or 12 Volt CAN-Bus. A LED bar always shows the active charging mode. - Couple of green/red LEDs to indicate the charging phase and possible errors: - Green LED (CHARGE): cycle in execution (Charge, Desulfation, Maintenance...); - Red LED (ERROR): diagnostic problem detected (polarity inversion, short circuit, battery not connected...); - Real time monitoring of battery parameters during all charging cycles. - Battery overload protection: it is triggered when the microprocessor detects a voltage higher than a predetermined threshold. No risk of bubble formation for all batteries on the market and in particular for sealed and gel batteries. At the end of each cycle, the device automatically switches to the next phase, without any external intervention: WE RECOMMEND TO LEAVE BC K900 EDGE ALWAYS CONNECTED TO THE BATTERY DURING PERIODS OF INACTIVITY OF THE VEHICLE. The battery charger belongs to the BC Battery Controller range for battery maintenance, distributed by the best professional accessory shops. The products are manufactured and tested according to the regulations in force to comply with all requirements in terms of safety and electromagnetic compatibility. Read the manual carefully and follow the instructions before using the device. SAFETY 1. Protection against polarity inversion. 2. Protection against short circuit (even permanent). 3. Protection against overheating: the current supplied is automatically limited in the event of excessive heating of the device.
