Projecta Battery Charger PC2100 – 12V 21A 6 Stage Automatic Charging
This is a fully automatic battery charger with 6 charge stages. Automatic charging protects your battery from being overcharged so you can leave the charger connected to the battery indefinitely. 6-stage charging is a sophisticated charging technique that gives your battery longer life and better performance compared to using traditional chargers. Projecta’s Pro-Charge chargers are suitable for most 12V automotive, marine and deep-cycle batteries. They may also help restore drained and sulphated batteries. The 6 charge stages are: Rejuvenation; Soft Start; Bulk; Absorption; Battery Test and Float.
REJUVENATION – The rejuvenation stage is manually initiated and delivers a 24-hour high-frequency, intermittent charge that breaks down sulphation from the battery’s plates. Upon completion, the charger will proceed to Soft Start.
SOFT START – This is a preliminary charge process that gently introduces power to the battery, protecting the battery and increasing battery life.
BULK (CONSTANT CURRENT) – The Bulk stage reduces charging time by charging the battery at the maximum rate (constant current) to a set voltage, at which point the battery is approximately 80% charged.
ABSORPTION (CONSTANT VOLTAGE) – The absorption stage charges the battery to 100% by adjusting the charge rate allowing the battery to absorb more power.
EQUALISATION (CALCIUM MODE ONLY) – Designed especially for calcium batteries, this stage returns calcium batteries to full service by removing acid stratification of the electrolyte.
BATTERY TEST – The analysis mode tests the battery to ensure that it has taken charge; if the battery passes the test the charger will proceed to the float stage.
FLOAT – The Float stage maintains the battery at 100% charge without overcharging or damaging the battery. This means the charger can be left connected to the battery indefinitely.

Projecta Pro-Charge Battery Chargers
Features
CALCIUM MODE – Pro-Charge’s Calcium mode adjusts the charging profile to suit calcium batteries for complete and proper charging. This charge mode is best suited to Calcium batteries that have been deeply discharged and require an equalisation charge to restore a full electrolyte reading.
REJUVENATION MODE – Pro-Charge’s Rejuvenation mode can restore tired batteries by breaking down sulphation and revitalising the battery cells, increasing battery life and performance.
ADJUSTABLE CHARGE RATE – The charger’s output can be adjusted to suit the size of the battery for optimum charging.
SWITCHMODE TECHNOLOGY – Using the latest technology in battery chargers, switchmode chargers convert 240V AC power to 12V DC power using electronic components, unlike traditional battery chargers that rely on heavy transformers. This allows the charger to be lightweight and compact without sacrificing on performance.
SPARK-FREE AND POLARITY PROTECTED – All Pro-Charge battery chargers are spark-free and are protected against accidental reverse connection making them safer to use around batteries.
Controls
The battery charger’s interface allows you to control the charge rates and charge modes to best suit your battery. The functions of the buttons are explained below:
1. BATTERY TYPE: Set the charge mode (Normal, Calcium, Rejuvenation)
2. CHARGE RATE: Set the charge rate to suit the size of the battery
LED Charge Indicators
These battery chargers include coloured LEDs that illuminate various signals to indicate different stages of charging.
