Rated at 40 amps on a 24V system, it accepts a wide AC input range of 120 to 240V, making it suitable for both UK and international installations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e40A output on 24V with three independent output channels for charging separate battery banks simultaneously.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWide AC input voltage range of 120 to 240V accommodates varying mains supplies without manual adjustment.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAdaptive four-stage charging algorithm (bulk, absorption, float, storage) automatically adjusts to battery condition.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTemperature-compensated charging via optional sensor input, protecting batteries in variable ambient conditions.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSuitable for lead-acid battery types including flooded, gel and AGM.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMicroprocessor-controlled with automatic restart after AC supply interruption.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHoused in a robust metal enclosure with a weight of 12kg, built for fixed installation in marine, vehicle and industrial environments.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eProduct Overview\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Centaur range sits in Victron's professional charger lineup, positioned above basic single-output units and designed for installations where more than one battery bank must be maintained. The three-output configuration allows a primary bank to receive the full 40A charge current while secondary outputs maintain auxiliary or starter batteries. This is particularly useful on vessels, large vehicles and off-grid installations where separate battery banks serve different loads.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe adaptive charging algorithm monitors battery voltage and adjusts charge current and voltage throughout the cycle. This prevents overcharging during absorption and keeps batteries in good condition during extended periods on float or storage mode. The wide input voltage range means the unit functions correctly on both 120V North American supplies and 230-240V European and UK mains, which is useful for equipment that moves between territories or for installations with non-standard supply voltages.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAt 12kg, the Centaur 24\/40 is a substantial unit intended for permanent, fixed installation rather than portable use. The metal enclosure provides adequate protection for engine room, battery compartment and industrial cabinet mounting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"border: 2px solid #f87c24; border-collapse: collapse; width: 100%;\"\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color: #f87c24; color: #ffffff;\"\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eParameter\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eValue\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003eSKU\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003eCCH024040000\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003eOutput Voltage\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003e24V\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003eOutput Current\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003e40A\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003eNumber of Outputs\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003e3\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003eAC Input Voltage Range\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003e120 to 240V AC\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003e12 kg\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003eGTIN\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003e8719076021568\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eApplications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMarine vessels with separate engine start, service and bow thruster battery banks.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLarge motorhomes, coaches and commercial vehicles with multiple 24V battery systems.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOff-grid cabins and industrial sites requiring automatic battery maintenance from a mains or generator supply.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTelecoms and security installations where battery backup systems need continuous float charging.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRental equipment fleets and plant machinery with 24V electrical systems.\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 24\/40 (3 outputs) unit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Centaur 24\/40 must be connected to a correctly fused and earthed AC mains supply by a qualified electrician. DC output connections to battery banks should be appropriately rated and fused. In marine installations, wiring must comply with applicable marine electrical standards.
