പ്രധാന സവിശേഷതകൾ

• ഒതുക്കമുള്ളതും ശക്തവും: The GEN5X2 is 37% smaller and 43% more powerful than its predecessor, designed for peak performance in harsh marine environments.
• Multi-Bank Charging: Features two independent banks, each providing 5 amps, ആകെ 10 amps. This allows simultaneous charging of two 12V batteries in marine, boat, starter, and deep-cycle systems.
• Versatile Charging Modes: Offers selectable modes for each bank: 12V (for wet cell, gel, maintenance-free, calcium), 12V AGM, 12V Lithium (for LiFePO₄ with BMS), and 12V Repair Mode (for sulfated batteries).
• Precision Charging with Thermal Compensation: An integrated thermal sensor automatically adjusts charging based on ambient temperature, preventing overcharging in hot conditions and undercharging in cold conditions.
• Dead Battery Recovery: Capable of charging batteries from as low as 1 volt. Force Mode allows manual initiation of charging for deeply discharged batteries down to zero volts.
• Redefined Mounting System: Designed for fast and secure installation in any orientation, including upside down, with an integrated anti-vibration backing to isolate shock and noise.
• വാട്ടർപ്രൂഫ് ഡിസൈൻ: Fully-sealed with an IP68 rating, engineered to withstand thousands of hours underwater in the harshest marine conditions.
• യാന്ത്രിക പ്രവർത്തനം: Provides year-round, all-weather charging. Features Zero Overcharge protection, allowing it to be left plugged in 24/7 without risk of overcharging. Auto Memory automatically returns to the last selected mode after power loss.

This diagram details the control panel of the NOCO GEN5X2, showing the Mode button, voltage indicators, error LEDs, and charge status LEDs for each bank. It explains the function of each indicator and button.

• മോഡ് ബട്ടൺ: Press to cycle through available charging modes (12V, 12V AGM, 12V Lithium, Repair Mode).
• ചാർജ്ജ് LED: Indicates the connected battery's state of charge.
• സ്റ്റാൻഡ്‌ബൈ LED: Illuminates when the charger is in Standby Mode, not charging.
• Error LEDs: Indicate overvoltage, bad battery, or reverse polarity.

ചാർജിംഗ് പ്രക്രിയ:

1. പവർ ഓൺ: Once connected to AC power and batteries, the charger will automatically begin charging in the last used mode (Auto Memory).
2. മോഡ് തിരഞ്ഞെടുക്കുക: Press the "MODE" button for each bank to select the appropriate charging mode for your battery type. Hold the "MODE" button for 3 seconds to enter Repair Mode.
3. പുരോഗതി നിരീക്ഷിക്കുക: The Charge LEDs will illuminate to indicate the battery's state of charge. When fully charged, the charger will switch to maintenance mode.
4. Force Mode (for dead batteries): If a battery is below 1 volt, the charger may not detect it. Press and hold the "MODE" button for 3 seconds to activate Force Mode, which manually begins charging from zero volts.

This image demonstrates the "Force Mode" feature, showing a multimeter reading 0.00V on a battery and a hand pressing the mode button on the charger. This mode allows the GEN5X2 to manually begin charging severely discharged batteries that other chargers might not detect.

This image highlights the automatic and worry-free aspects of the NOCO GEN5X2. It shows the charger connected to two batteries in a vehicle, emphasizing year-round charging, zero overcharge protection (safe to leave plugged in 24/7), and auto memory that recalls the last selected mode.
