🔌 Victron Centaur Charger 12V 30A — 3 Output 240V Battery Charger

Professional 12V 30A three-output battery charger with universal 90–265VAC input, three-stage charging, isolated outputs, temperature compensation, and rugged aluminium construction.

The Victron Centaur Charger 12V/30A (3) 240V is a high-quality battery charger designed for demanding vehicle, marine, workshop, RV, caravan, and multi-battery charging applications.

The Centaur range features auto-ranging input from 90–265VAC, allowing it to be used worldwide without manual adjustment. Unlike many universal input chargers, the Centaur maintains full output power across the specified input range. It can also accept 90–400V DC input, making it suitable for both AC-DC and DC-DC operation where applicable.

With three isolated charge outputs, the Centaur 12V 30A can charge up to three battery banks simultaneously. Each output is capable of supplying the full rated current when only one battery is connected, making it highly flexible for installations with starter, auxiliary, house, or service battery banks.
