Powerverter 12/24V DC USB Charger Range

The PowerVerter USB chargers are available with either single or double outputs.  The USB1 design is ideal for installation in dashboards, facia displays or underneath bus seats and is retained from behind with the threaded securing ring provided. The USB2 provides the same performance but is designed to be stored out of the way with other wiring. The USB3 design offers a slim line alternative and requires only 20mm rear space. This version is ideal for installation into seat backs, armrests or wherever space is an issue.  Where rear access is limited, a front fixing retaining plate is supplied as an alternative.  A protective installation pod is also available. This will accept both single and double USB chargers and is ideal for under seat installations on buses and coaches as well as retrofit applications where the vehicle is already in service.

Warranty

Like all products, the USB chargers are manufactured using rugged components to provide years of service in demanding commercial environments.  Due to the limitations of public use, the guarantee on these products is limited to three years.

Commercial installations

The PowerVerter USB chargers offer an advanced design that effectively counteracts the voltage drop common when output currents vary as different devices charge at different rates.  This avoids the common problem of the phone or tablet indicating it is charging when in fact very little current is being supplied. They also have an exceptionally low quiescent current of less that 2mA meaning that multiple devices can safely be installed throughout buses and coaches without materially discharging the battery.  They have been designed to meet the rigorous standards required for on board commercial vehicle applications including BS EN50498 and ISO 7637-2 and are both CE and E marked.  The casings are made from V0 rated (self-extinguishing) high impact polycarbonate and the electronic assembly is predominantly by computer controlled SMT for maximum reliability. All versions have a subtle blue LED light to highlight their location on the vehicle.
