Three phase transformers help charge standby batteries

Three phase transformers are used in our standby battery power products to allow them to support input voltages of up to 415V.

 

With three phase transformers, failure detection relays and controlled, constant charging voltage, an input voltage of 415V at 50Hz can be used.

In as little as 12 hours, the batteries inside reach 90% of their maximum potential, rising to full within 24 hours.

Already, 2012 has seen power outages caused by extreme weather conditions - in the first week of January alone, Reuters reported 100,000 homes were cut off from the mains supply.

With battery backup systems in place, offices and other workplaces can stay open even when the electricity supply from the mains fails.

Our battery backup products contain transformers double wound with Earth Screen or Split Bobbin, to achieve general compliance with British Standard BS171.

This governs power transformers of all kinds, and lets you know the major current-carrying components of your new investment are of the highest standard.

Light-up indicators let you keep an eye on the health of your battery system during operation, with a bank of warnings should anything go wrong.

These include a neon indicator that the mains supply is healthy, an LED to highlight any charging fail, an ammeter to measure the charge and a voltmeter attached to the battery cells themselves.
