DC POWER PRODUCTS
Charles offers a wide range of battery chargers designed specifically for
the marine environment. All Charles C-Charger Battery Chargers feature
three stage charging and function as both battery charger and
power supply. Charles manufactures both
ferroresonant and electronic series that are
Marine UL Listed. SP Series Electronic
Battery Chargers feature a battery type
selector switch enabling boaters to use
them with lead acid, gel or AGM batteries.
C-Chargers are proudly made in the USA
and meet FCC Class B requirements.
Marine Battery Chargers for 12V, 24V & 32V Batteries

Top 10 Reasons to Buy
Charles C-Chargers
1. Fully automatic recharging
Batteries must optimally perform
in the marine environment, yet
they are susceptible to a vast
number of ills, including misuse.
If used incorrectly, they will begin
to degenerate and battery cells
may be lost. Charles C-Chargers
automatically recharge batteries
to 100% with accurate current and
voltage regulation. In larger units,
(30 amp - 100 amp models) auto-
matic temperature compensation
guarantees fast, safe and efficient
charging.
2. Ability to simultaneously
recharge and act as a
power supply
C-Chargers function as both a
battery charger and a power
supply that automatically boosts
the 12/24V circuit to full capacity
when input voltage is low. Thus,
DC loads such as lights or auto-
matic bilge pumps can run off of
the battery charger if necessary.
3. Designed for safety
C-Chargers feature thermal, over-
current, reverse polarity and igni-
tion protection. Units 30 Amps
and above have built-in tempera-
ture compensation. These safety
features safeguard your power
systems and prevent expensive
damage to onboard equipment.
4. Built to withstand harsh
marine environments
All Charles C-Chargers feature
UL recognized, corrosion-resistant
components and housings. All
PC boards are conformal coated
to stabilize hydrolytes and with-
stand the marine environment.
5. One charger for any
battery type
Charles new 5000 SP and 2000
SP Battery Chargers feature a
battery type selector switch.
This feature allows the boater to
set the charger for either lead-
acid, gel or AGM batteries. With
Charles C-Chargers, you will not
need to continuously replace bat-
teries. C-Chargers are designed
to accurately charge the batteries,
neither under-charging nor
over-charging, thus prolonging
battery life.
6. Marine UL Listed
Charles 5000 SP Series High-
Frequency and 9000 Series
Ferroresonant Battery
Chargers are Marine UL Listed.
These chargers have passed
Underwriters Laboratories strin-
gent tests including shock, vibra-
tion, temperature and corrosion.
Marine UL auditors randomly
conduct inspections of our manu-
facturing processes to ensure that
Charles products continue to be
built to marine UL standards.
This continuous testing and
inspection ensures that you are
receiving the best quality product.
Dont be fooled - only chargers
that bear the Marine UL mark are
certified to their high standards.
7. Low emissions
All models meet FCC require-
ments for electrical interference.
Thus, the chargers will not signifi-
cantly interfere with onboard
equipment.
8. Made in the USA
Charles is a vertically integrated
company, manufacturing compo-
nents and finished goods in the
midwestern United States. The
employees of our Casey, Illinois
manufacturing plant take great
pride in the quality of their work-
manship.
9. Industrys best warranties
Charles 5000 SP series and 9000
series battery chargers feature a
5-year warranty that sets the stan-
dard for marine battery chargers.
10. Designed to improve battery
longevity and save you money
C-Chargers are designed to accu-
rately charge batteries, neither
over nor under charging them, to
keep battery cells healthy. All
electronic chargers feature isolat-
ed outputs, eliminating the need
for a battery isolator and protect-
ing one battery from discharging
into another.
Charging Different
Battery Types
The three most popular types of
batteries used in the marine
industry are lead acid, gel cell and
AGM (Absorbed Glass Mat).
Each type of battery has its pros
and cons. Each requires different
charging profiles. Three-stage
charging begins in a bulk rate
where power is directed into the
batteries, the peak of this stage
varies with each battery type.
The second stage is absorption,
when current begins to taper off.
The final stage is float. This is a
maintenance stage and the float
level varies with each battery
type. In order to ensure a long
battery life, the correct charging
profile must be used with each
battery type. 4
