Replacement Product - CH100 with A100

12 Volt Charger/Regulator and 5 Volt Power Supply (AC adapter not included)

Features

Used to connect rechargeable batteries with a charging source, such as ac power or unregulated solar panels

General Description

The CH512R charging regulator is used with a Campbell Scientific battery pack or with a user-supplied battery. Charging power is typically supplied by a CSC Model L9591 AC Transformer or by a solar panel (MSX10, MSX20 or MSX30R).

The CH512R has two 9-pin connectors that provide a null modem for use in a site, without a datalogger, that connects and powers two Campbell Scientific peripherals that would normally be connected to a datalogger. These peripherals are typically modems linking different communications technologies (e.g., telephone to radio).
