-  Operating software

   The operating program in this charger is executed with mutual links and communications with every component 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 BC8DP has a large LCD for showing various information including charge/discharge graphs during the process.

- Dual input power

  BC8DP employs the circuit that can be operated at AC(Alternating Current) or DC(Direct Current) input power. For AC input, the charger contains a AC-DC switching power supplier inside, which has 10A of power capacity and maximum output power of 120watts for charging. As a result, it can charge up to 22 cells of NiCd/NiMH and 8 series of Lithium batteries. When you use DC input power, the circuit power will be increased to 180watts. But there might be the limit of feeding current to a higher voltage of battery. Please refer 'Maximum circuit power chart'.

-  Individual voltage balancer for Lithium batteries inside

   BC8DP has an individual-cell-voltage balancer inside. So it does not need any balancer separately when charging Lithium batteries (LiIo/LiPo/LiFe) for individual voltage balancing.

-  Monitor the individual voltages on discharge

   BC8DP will monitor the individual voltages of the Lithium battery pack during 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.

-  PC based analysis using USB communication

    For technical expert, BC8DP offers PC based program that can be used to analyse 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
