Midtronics Releases CCD-100 Battery-Charge Controller

January 07, 2002 by Jeff Shepard

Midtronics Inc. (Willowbrook, IL) announced the release of its charge-control device (CCD-100), designed to regulate standby battery charging for improved battery performance and lifespan. The CCD-100 prevents reduced battery performance and premature deterioration that can be caused by constant-current-charging equipment sometimes found in telecommunications, UPS and other power systems. The CCD-100 protects batteries from damaging over-charge conditions, offering insurance for standby battery systems.

“Midtronics continually seeks to develop innovative battery-management products,” said Todd Stukenberg, Midtronics’ standby power products marketing manager. “This charge-control device is an extension of that pursuit, offering a creative, cost-effective method for enhancing battery life and system reliability.”

The CCD-100 is available through Midtronics’ worldwide distribution network and European headquarters in the Netherlands.
