Product Description
The CHG-75 battery charger is designed to charge lead-acid batteries that provide
emergency standby power for an FACP (Fire Alarm Control Panel) and related
equipment. Two 12 volt batteries are used in series to supply a nominal 24VDC. The
battery charger is compatible with any FACP that uses lead-acid batteries with a rating
of 25 AH (Amp Hours) to 75 AH. The FACP must have a feature that allows the
disabling of the control panel battery charger.
The CHG-75 can be configured for 120 VAC operation or 220/240 VAC operation via
jumper selection.
