Samlex battery chargers are microprocessor controlled, fully automatic electronic devices, which use switch-mode technology to change AC input voltage to DC output voltage at much faster rates than traditional ferroresonant type chargers, which allows for a much smaller transformer, and therefore less size and weight, and increased efficiency. The SEC-1215UL switch-mode charger also will function as a power supply with or without a battery in the system, and the proper dip switch setting. These units are user selectable for AC input voltage, battery type (wet, AGM, Gel), and battery with load (power supply operation). The 'battery with load' setting deactivates the boost mode, so the charger can function as a power supply without entering the elevated voltage level, which can damage a battery if applied for long periods. Proper maintenance of lead acid batteries keeps them healthy, and maximizes their life expectancy.
