  • A choice of battery chargers for standard and low maintenance NiCd batteries

We can create charge algorithms for your specific battery type. Let us help you choose or design the battery charger or battery system best for your program. Review the information below for details on our latest product offerings as well as our current production products or email us at Ask the Expert on Battery Chargers.

Battery Charge OptimizerBattery Charge Optimizer

ELDEC's new Battery Charge Optimizer (BCO) gives you a low-cost, low-weight method to get the most out of your aircraft battery. It is ideal for use on aircraft in which the battery is typically charged off the DC bus. The BCO connects between the DC bus and the aircraft battery to regulate the voltage on the battery. This maintains capacity and reduces water loss to increase your maintenance intervals. By optimizing your battery's performance, you can actually use smaller, lighter and less expensive batteries in many applications.

Battery Charger, Blue SkyBlue Sky Battery Charger Upgrade

The Blue Sky Battery Charger (part number 81-025) gives you the performance and reliability proven in ELDEC’s extensive line of battery chargers in a new, small light weight package. The charger is fully programmable and can be configured for use with any 24V NiCd or Valve-Regulated Lead Acid batteries in use on today’s aircraft.


 

Battery Charger Upgrade battery_op.jpg (2753 bytes)

ELDEC has developed a new, advanced Battery Charger Upgrade (part number 8-930) for the Boeing 737-600/700/800/900, 747-400, 757 and 767 aircraft. It is a form, fit and function replacement for the existing ELDEC battery chargers on these airplanes. The new Battery Charger provides significant cost-of-ownership advantages to operators -- including higher reliability, enhanced fault isolation, built-in test capabilities, and compatibility with the new SAFT Ultra Low Maintenance (ULM) battery.
