The Safe Alternative For On Board Power

The widespread use of smartphones and computer tablets has created an increasing need for user accessible on the move charging systems. The PowerVerter USB Chargers can be easily installed onto any vessel and allow both crew and passengers to readily access power to charge any device connected via a USB lead. This type of system has the distinct advantage of largely negating the need for mains electricity. The 5Volt DC power is much safer than mains so installation is quick and simple. The charging facility can be accessed directly and power their own USB charging lead. All versions in the range can be connected directly to both 12Vdc and 24Vdc systems without adjustment. The advanced electronic design will also automatically detect if the device is an Apple or Android configuration and alter the charging process accordingly. This ensures that whatever device is connected be it Apple  Android iPad phone or tablet it will always be charged as fully as time and capacity allow. 

The Range

The PowerVerter USB range has been completely re-designed to include a standard design that can be used in regular as well as slim-line installations. Aesthetically the design has been improved with a dark grey body and contrasting light grey ring as well as an attractive and more obvious LED indicator. This helps to draw attention to the unit and encourages use.

Electronically the design now includes automatic short circuit detection so in the event of tampering or compromise  the unit will automatically shut down  then re-start again once the fault has been removed. A charger only version is also available for permanent behind the scenes installations without customer interface. The range is completed with our ‘Pod’. This is ideal for retrofit installations and is designed to fit underneath the seat in front. This system can also be bought as a complete assembly including; PVPro USB charger pod and 1.2m of fused cable.

Commercial Installations

The Powerverter 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.

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 vessel.
