A DMS Technologies product story
Edited by the Electronicstalk editorial team Mar 26, 2007

Designed to meet the exacting requirements of high-energy-density batteries, the NiMH SafeCharger is available in both 12 and 24V formats and capable of charging up to 20 cells.

For more than 20 years DMS has been supplying custom built batteries and power systems for a wide range of applications across the whole spectrum of industries.

Designed to meet the exacting requirements of the DMS' range of high energy density NiMH batteries, the NiMH SafeCharger is available in both 12 and 24V formats and capable of charging up to 20 cells.

During the charging process NiMH cells rely on correct termination and charging algorithms to prevent cells from overheating and causing permanent damage.

For large capacity batteries, such as the 9 and 13Ah cells, the charger termination is more critical due to the thermal issues of the battery.

To overcome these issues the NiMH SafeCharger incorporates three types of charge termination, voltage sensor, temperature sensor and safety timer.

Furthermore the charger can recharge the packs in less than 6 hours from a fully discharged state.
