VMAX Charge Pumps (VCP) are hybrid batteries designed to be
installed in parallel with 12V batteries to improve and solve most of the
problems associated with high power audio systems and loads with high current
surges, in the same manner as stiffening capacitors. And just like capacitors,
VCPs are also designed to be continuously recharged by the connected battery to
deliver the high current surges needed by high power audio systems. Yet the
main advantage over capacitors is the VCPs -acting as batteries- larger
capacities of 6ah-18ah enabling them to deliver and sustain much longer power
surges compared to the equivalent capacitors’ capacity of less than 0.4ah/100f.
Advantages:
1.
Maximize SPL levels and minimize vehicle light flickering: VCPs help maximize
the sound pressure level (SPL) produced by audio systems and minimize light
flickering by delivering massive current surges to meet the demands of vehicle
electronics and audio systems.
2. Eliminate the need for large battery banks: By
efficiently boosting and delivering high current surges, VCPs reduce the
reliance on multiple batteries, saving space and cost.
3. Minimize system failures: 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.
4. Increase the lifespan of vehicle batteries: VCPs play a
protective role by preventing the batteries from experiencing deep discharges,
thereby increasing their lifespan.
5. Support motors, hydraulics and inductive loads during
startup: VCPs provide the necessary current surges needed by motors and other
inductive loads for smooth startup and operation.
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:
Utilizing
state of the art and specially designed LTO cells, balancers and components,
VMAX pumps are built 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.
