KAVAN C14 + 80W charger

KAVAN C14 + 80W was designed in an effort to provide everything needed for charging "under one roof", including the power supply and with simple operation. KAVAN C14 + allows you to charge and discharge common types of cells (NiCd, NiMH, LiPo, LiHV, Li-ion, LiFe, Pb), in addition, it is equipped with a built-in six-channel balancer, which ensures very safe and comfortable charging of lithium batteries.

Apart from higher power, it differs from conventional 50W chargers by really intelligent software, which enables the functions hitherto common in "machines" of much higher price categories:

• Lithium charging and discharging end voltage settings (allows for more gentle charging, which pilots like, or brutal recharging, which is enjoyed by "toy cars") and lead-acid batteries
• measurement of total voltage and voltage of individual cells (for lithium batteries) even outside charging / discharging
• measurement of internal resistance of individual cells (for lithium batteries)
• current source mode with adjustable voltage limitation (max. 6 A / 80 W)
• Smart battery charging mode (lithium batteries with built-in protection electronics

Overview of basic functions and parameters

• Input supply voltage 11 - 18 V DC
• Mains supply 100-240 V / 50-60 Hz
• For charging and discharging 1 - 15 NiCd / NiMH cells, 1 - 6 Li-ion / LiPo / LiFe cells or 2- 20 V lead-acid batteries
• Adjustable charging current (0.1 A - 6.0 A)
• Adjustable discharge current (0.1 A - 2.0 A)
• Max. power for charging 80 W, for discharging 10 W
• End of charging using delta-peak automation for NiCd and NiMH batteries
• Lithium and Pb batteries are charged using the "constant current / constant voltage" method
• Adjustable delta-peak detection sensitivity for NiCd and NiMH batteries
• Adjustable charging and discharging voltage for lithium and lead batteries
• Repeated cyclic charging / discharging or discharging / charging operation for NiCd and NiMH batteries, up to 5 cycles
• Four charging modes for lithium batteries - normal charging, fast charging, balancing charging and storage charging / discharging
• Stop charging when the set time, charged charge or temperature limit is exceeded.
• Memory for 20 charging / discharging programs.
• Measurement of the total voltage of the set and individual cells (for lithium batteries)
• Measurement of the total internal resistance of individual cells (for lithium batteries)
• Socket for temperature sensor
• Autonomous balancer mode for lithium batteries
• Current source mode with adjustable voltage limitation for powering other devices - max. 6 A / 80 W, voltage max. 27 V
• Smart battery charging mode (lithium batteries with built-in protection electronics) with adjustable charging time, charging current and max. Battery voltage
• Two-line backlit LCD display with simple and clear menu and display of parameters during charging / discharging
• A number of warning text messages contribute to safe operation - incorrect input voltage, incorrect connection, unsuitable battery or its condition, incorrect output polarity
• Reverse polarity and short circuit protection at the output.
• Compact aluminum cabinet, small dimensions
• Built-in power supply.

If you also connect the charged lithium set via the service connector, you have the option of monitoring the voltage on the individual cells during the entire charging or discharging process, and the built-in balancer balances the voltage on the individual cells. the charger is equipped with sockets for JST-XH service connectors, you can connect sets of other systems using adapters that are sold separately.

You can purchase a temperature sensor to measure the temperature of rechargeable / discharged batteries.

Note: The charger for charging lead-acid batteries allows to set the final voltage 1.50-2.50 V / cell - for this reason it is suitable (with the correct setting!) For charging gas-tight gel batteries, which must not be charged for more than 2.30 In / cell, as well as classic lead-acid batteries (car batteries) and gel batteries with a reversible valve.

The charger set includes: KAVAN C14 + charger, mains cable, 12 V power cable with crocodile clips, Dean-T charging cable with adapters with JST-BEC, JR / Futaba connectors, with crocodile clips and for compact glow plugs, instructions.
