1 PRODUCT OVERVIEW
The BCDC Core 25 and BCDC Core 40 are three-stage, DC-DC 12 V auxiliary battery chargers
that source power from both the vehicles alternator and solar panel input. The BCDC Core's
vehicle input is suitable for 12 V or 24 V start battery and alternator systems while the solar input
is designed for connection to unregulated 12 V nominal solar panels. As a true dual input charger
with an in-built MPPT regulator, the unit charges simultaneously from solar and alternator with
Green Power Priority to minimise load on the vehicle alternator.

Core
The BCDC Core compensates for the input voltage of either power source, always outputting
the ideal voltage to charge the selected battery type. This capability makes it ideal for charging
a wide variety of auxiliary 12 V batteries including Lithium batteries and overcomes voltage drop
over long cable runs.
In addition, BCDC Core features an internal battery isolator that disconnects the auxiliary battery
system from the start battery based on voltage. This allows the charger to safely charge the auxiliary
battery from the vehicle and prevents the start battery from being excessively discharged.
All these features are combined in a compact, lightweight housing to suit mounting within
vehicle cabins and battery boxes.
