AXIgo

High-frequency rectifiers for charging traction batteries

Advantages of AXIgo:

Economic benefits:

• Higher efficiency – lower energy consumption
• Longer battery life

• Lower battery maintenance costs

Smaller size and weight,
Affordable price due to power/performance
Suitable for all types of batteries

Fast and accurate charging

• Precise and fast charging that is maximally gentle on the battery
• Short charging times (6 to 8 hours, enough for one shift)
• Lower energy consumption and longer battery life = saves your money
• Lower water consumption, longer service intervals = less maintenance required
• High efficiency (95%) = lower power consumption and low heat losses
• High power factor (~1) = sinusoidal power draw from the grid and lower current intake = reduced grid load

• Negligible charging current ripple = longer battery life, ability to charge all types of batteries (with liquid electrolyte, VRLA, gel, NiCd, …)

Properties of rectifiers:

• Rectifier adjustment and charging cycle analysis via PC
• Selection from preset charging characteristics with the possibility of parameterization
• Automatic battery detection and charging parameter adjustment
• Memory for 1000 charging cycles
• Battery desulfation = regeneration of batteries with reduced capacity
• Equalization = balancing battery cell voltage
• Float charging = maintaining full performance of unused batteries
• Pulsed charging = higher electrolyte circulation = reduced charging factor
• Voltage drop compensation on connected cables
• Delay of charging start, e.g., to use “night current”

• Automatic water refill control

Equipment:

• AXIM98 battery identification unit provides information:
• Battery parameters (number, voltage, capacity, charging characteristic, …)
• Battery temperature (overheat protection)
• Electrolyte level (for automatic refilling system or service warning)

• Air pump (for batteries with forced electrolyte circulation)
