It is suited to marine, vehicle, off-grid and industrial applications where reliable, automatic charging of multiple battery banks is required from a 120-240V AC supply.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e60A total charge current across three independent outputs for simultaneous charging of separate battery banks.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWide input voltage range of 120-240V AC, making it compatible with both North American and European mains supplies.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAdaptive four-stage charging algorithm: bulk, absorption, float and storage, with automatic temperature compensation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMicroprocessor-controlled charge management adjusts automatically to battery condition and temperature.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with gel, AGM, tubular plate and flooded lead-acid batteries, with selectable charge profiles.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIntegrated battery safe mode prevents damage from deeply discharged batteries.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact and robust metal enclosure weighing 6.7kg, suitable for permanent installation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eProduct Overview\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Centaur 12\/60(3) uses a fully automatic adaptive charging process. During bulk charge, the charger delivers maximum current to bring the battery up to voltage quickly. The absorption stage then holds voltage constant while current tapers off, and the float stage maintains the battery at full charge without overcharging. A storage mode reduces float voltage further if the battery remains connected for an extended period, minimising long-term degradation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe three-output configuration is particularly useful on boats, motorhomes and off-grid installations where a starter battery, a domestic bank and a third auxiliary bank all need to be maintained independently. Each output is managed separately, so a deeply discharged auxiliary bank will not affect the charge quality delivered to the other outputs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe 120-240V input range means the unit operates without modification on UK and EU 230V supplies as well as 120V North American shore power, which is a practical advantage for marine users crossing between regions. The charger meets CE requirements and carries the relevant safety certifications for mains-connected equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSKU: CCH012060000\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBattery voltage: 12V\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCharge current: 60A (total, three outputs)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNumber of outputs: 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAC input voltage: 120-240V\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeight: 6.7kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGTIN: 8719076021513\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eApplications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMarine vessels with separate starter, domestic and bow thruster battery banks.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMotorhomes and coaches requiring simultaneous charging of chassis and habitation batteries.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOff-grid cabins and outbuildings with a generator or shore power connection.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIndustrial vehicles and plant equipment with multiple 12V battery systems.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBackup power installations where battery maintenance during standby periods is required.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eWhat Is Included\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eVictron Centaur Charger 12\/60(3) 120-240V unit\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMounting hardware\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDocumentation and quick-start guide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be carried out by a qualified electrician or experienced marine\/vehicle electrician familiar with mains-connected charging equipment. The unit must be connected to a correctly fused and earthed AC supply. Battery cabling should be sized appropriately for 60A continuous current and kept as short as practicable to minimise voltage drop. Ensure adequate ventilation around the unit during operation. For shore power connections on vessels, comply with the relevant marina and BS EN ISO wiring standards applicable to your installation.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Victron Energy","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":59863678255438,"sku":"CCH012060000","price":416.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0796\/3698\/8238\/files\/VoltaconSolar_-_CCH012060000_-_Centaur_Charger_12-60_3_120-240V.webp?v=1781183299","url":"https:\/\/voltaconsolar.com\/products\/victron-centaur-charger-12-60-3-120-240v","provider":"VoltaconSolar","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
