- Operating software
The operating program in this charger is executed with mutual links and communications with every
components to prevent any possible error, so it introduces the maximum safety. Especially, the charging
algorithm is so multifarious that you can select the best program to suit your requirement. And BC8DX
has a large LCD for showing various informations including charge/discharge graphs during the process.
- High-power dual output circuit
BC8DX employs the circuit that features two totally independent but identical high-power outputs which
are powered as much as 200watts each. As a result, it can charge or discharge up to 44 cells of NiCd/
NiMH or 16 series of Lithium batteries simultaneously. Furthermore, the twin-fan cooling system is so
efficient that can hold such a power without any trouble of running the circuit.
- Monitor the individual voltages on discharge
BC8DX also can monitor the individual voltages of the Lithium battery pack during the discharge process
as well as ‘FAST’ and ‘STORAGE’ mode. If the voltage of any one cell varies abnormally, the process will
be stopped with the error message.
- Maximum safety
Delta-peak sensitivity : The automatic charge termination program works on the principle of the Delta-
peak voltage detection. (NiCd/NiMH)
Auto-charge current limit : When charging NiCd or NiMH at 'AUTO' current mode, you can set the upper
limit of charge current to avoid from feeding high current to the battery. This is very useful when charging
the low impedance and small capacity NiMH battery in 'AUTO' mode.
Capacity limit : The charging capacity always calculated by multiple of the charging current and time. If
the charging capacity exceeds the limit the process will be terminated automatically when you set the
maximum value.
Temperature limit : The temperature of the battery on charging or discharging will be raised by its internal
chemical reaction. If you set the limit of temperature the process will be expired forcibly when the limit has
been reached.
Processing time limit : You can also restrain the maximum processing time to prevent any possible
defect.
- Cyclic charging/discharging
Perform 1 to 10 cycles of charge>discharge or discharge>charge continually for battery refreshing and
balancing at both outputs.
- PC based analysis using USB communication
For technical expert, BC8DX offers PC based program can analysis the characteristic of the battery via
USB port. It shows a graph of voltage, current, capacity and temperature curves. It also shows the
individual voltage of each cell in the Lithium battery pack. This program can run on both outputs with single
USB link to PC. You can download the software at here.
