On-board charger 12V 2x5A NOCO GEN5X2

On-board charger 12V 2x5A 2 banks IP68 NOCO GEN5X2

The classic two-battery boat layout, engine plus house supply, is precisely what this fixed charger addresses. Each bank is isolated from the other and supplies 5 A on its own, so neither battery depends on the other while charging.

The working range is up to 120 Ah per output; as a guide, a 100 Ah battery at 50 % needs around 15 h. It handles AGM, EFB, gel, calcium, MF and flooded lead-acid, plus 12 V lithium with a BMS (LiFePO4 included).

The IP68 housing accepts any mounting orientation and sits on an anti-vibration backing. Repair mode, force mode from 0 V and temperature-adjusted charging are built in.

Technical data

How to size it

• —  Count the independent batteries on board: two 12 V batteries up to 120 Ah is exactly its case.
• —  With three batteries, the GEN5X3 adds a further 5 A output (15 A in total).
• —  If any battery exceeds 120 Ah, move to the GENPRO10 series: the GENPRO10X2 offers 2 x 10 A and up to 230 Ah per bank.
• —  12 V batteries only; lithium must include a BMS.

Features

• —  Two isolated 5 A banks at 12 V, 10 A in total and 145 W maximum.
• —  Each output covers batteries up to 120 Ah and can maintain any size.
• —  12V, AGM, lithium (12 V with BMS) and repair modes.
• —  Detects batteries from 1 V; force mode begins charging at 0 V.
• —  Sealed IP68 housing with anti-vibration backing, suitable for inverted mounting.
