VMAX Charge Pump (VCP) devices are
specifically designed to work in parallel with 12V batteries and power sources
to achieve several objectives:1. Boost and deliver massive current
surges: VCPs can provide a significant surge of current, which is particularly
useful for powering 12V mobile audio systems, hydraulics, and other inductive
loads. These loads often require a high amount of current during peak
operation, and the VCP helps meet these demands.
2. Maximize SPL levels and minimize
vehicle light flickering: By delivering a boost in current, VCPs help maximize
the sound pressure level (SPL) produced by audio systems. Additionally, they
help prevent flickering of vehicle lights that can occur when the power supply
is insufficient to meet the demands of the audio system.
3. Eliminate the need for large
battery banks: Instead of relying on a large number of batteries to supply
power to high-power audio systems, VCPs offer an alternative solution. By
efficiently boosting and delivering current surges, they reduce the reliance on
multiple batteries, saving space and cost.
4. Minimize failures of power
amplifiers and subwoofers: Low voltage drops can cause power amplifiers and
subwoofers to underperform or fail. VCPs help mitigate this issue by ensuring
that the voltage supplied to these components remains at an optimal level,
preventing performance degradation and potential failures.
5. Increase the lifespan of vehicle
batteries: Repeated deep discharges can significantly shorten the lifespan of
vehicle batteries. VCPs play a protective role by preventing the batteries from
experiencing deep discharges, thereby increasing their lifespan.
6. Support motors and inductive loads
during startup: Motors and other inductive loads require a high amount of
current during startup. VCPs assist in providing the necessary surge of current
during these initial moments, ensuring smooth startup and operation of such
loads.
Overall, VMAX Charge Pump devices
offer various benefits, including improved power delivery, protection for
components, increased efficiency, and extended battery lifespan, making them
valuable additions to systems that require high current surges and reliable
power supply.
Features
& Advantages:
Utilizing
state of the art LTO cells, balancers and components, VMAX pumps are designed to
deliver unmatched performance and advantages including:
- Fast
charging of up to 10 times rated capacity (10C).
- Accept
high voltage inputs of up to 17.4V, making them safe to work with high
output alternators.
- Deliver
massive current surges exceeding 120 times rated capacity (120C).
- High
energy density, small size, and light weight.
- 20,000+
cycle life design life, stable performance, maintenance-free.
- Safe
and wide temperature range exceeding those of LFP batteries.
- No
“memory effect”; eliminating the need to keep them always fully charged.
- Work
well with most types of 12V batteries; AGM, Gel, Wet and other Lithium
batteries.
Charging:
- Use
of a Lithium charger is recommended, though AGM chargers are also acceptable.
- Vehicle
alternators with 14.5 ~ 17.4V outputs.
- Reconditioning
and float charging are not recommended. Disconnect charger after full charge.
- Charging
before first use is recommended.
Installation:
- Read
unit technical data and specifications at vmaxtanks.com before use.
- Use
the right gauge cables and fuses to connect your VMAX Charge Pump (VCP) in
parallel with the existing 12V battery or power source.
- Use
adequate screws to securely mount and install your VCP.
- Connect
main battery cables to VCP terminals. An inline fuse is recommended (VCP6:100A, VCP9:100-150A, VCP12:150A, and VCP18: 200-250A)
- After
connecting and wiring your system, connect system/load cable ends to VCP terminals.
- Ensure
all terminals are tight and secure- do not overtighten.
- Fuse -at VCP terminals- all power cables connecting VCP to system/load (VCP6:150-200A, VCP9:200-250A, VCP12:250-300A, and VCP18: 300A+)
- The
use of fuses is mainly to protect the cables against any accidental short
circuit after installation. Refer to website for recommended fuse ratings.
- Up
to four VCPs can be connected in parallel for larger systems. Do not connect in
series.
- Check
and tighten all screws and connections regularly.
Warning:
- Do
not connect in series with any other battery.
- Do not connect more than 4 VCPs in parallel.
- Do
not short circuit, revers polarity, open or tamper with.
- Do
not use in an environment where temperatures exceed 120F.
- Do
not mount inside an engine compartment, or close to high temperature devices.
- Unit
must be returned to VMAX USA or your Authorized dealer for any repair or
service issues.
