VMAX VCP9K 9,000W LTO Car Audio Battery Charge Pump

Product Description

A CP9K VMAX Charge Pump (VCP) is an LTO battery designed to be installed in parallel with another 12V battery to solve most of the problems associated with high power audio systems and loads with high current surges, in the same manner as stiffening capacitors. Just like capacitors, VCPs are also designed to be continuously recharged by the connected battery to deliver the high current surges needed by high power audio systems. The CP9K will support audio systems rated up to 9000 peak watts.

LTO Car Audio Battery Benefits:

1. Boost and deliver massive current surges: VCP's can provide a significant surge of current, which is particularly useful for powering 12V mobile audio systems, hydraulics, and other inductive loads. These loads often require a high amount of current during peak operation, and the VCP helps meet these demands.
2. Maximize SPL levels and minimize vehicle light flickering: By delivering a boost in current, VCP's help maximize the sound pressure level (SPL) produced by audio systems. Additionally, they help prevent flickering of vehicle lights that can occur when the power supply is insufficient to meet the demands of the audio system.
3. Eliminate the need for large battery banks: Instead of relying on a large number of batteries to supply power to high-power audio systems, VCP's offer an alternative solution. By efficiently boosting and delivering current surges, they reduce the reliance on multiple batteries, saving space, weight and cost.
4. Minimize failures of power amplifiers and subwoofers: Low voltage drops can cause power amplifiers and subwoofers to underperform or fail. VCP's help mitigate this issue by ensuring that the voltage supplied to these components remains at an optimal level, preventing performance degradation and potential failures.
5. Increase the lifespan of vehicle batteries: Repeated deep discharges can significantly shorten the lifespan of vehicle batteries. VCP's play a protective role by preventing the batteries from experiencing deep discharges, thereby increasing their lifespan.
6. Support motors, hydraulics and inductive loads during startup: Motors and other inductive loads require a high amount of current during startup. VCP's assist in providing the necessary surge of current during these initial moments, ensuring smooth startup and operation of such loads.

Utilizing state of the art LTO cells, balancers and components, VMAX pumps are designed to deliver unmatched performance and advantages including:

• Fast charging of up to 10 times rated Ah capacity (10C).
• Accept high voltage inputs of up to 17.4V, making them safe to work with high output alternators.
• Deliver massive current surges exceeding 120 times rated Ah capacity (120C).
• High energy density, small size, and light weight.
• 20,000+ cycle life design life, stable performance, maintenance-free.
• Safe and wide temperature range exceeding those of LFP batteries.
• No “memory effect”; eliminating the need to keep them always fully charged.
• Work well with most types of 12V batteries; AGM, Gel, Wet and other Lithium batteries.

Note: Must be used in parallel with another battery or power source. Not suitable as the main source of power.

Charging:

•  Use of a Lithium charger is recommended, though AGM chargers are also acceptable.
•  Vehicle alternators with 14.5 ~ 17.4V outputs.
•  Reconditioning and float charging are not recommended. Disconnect charger after full charge. 
•  Charging before first use is recommended.

Installation:

• Read and understand all unit technical data and specifications before use.
• Use the right gauge cables and fuses to connect your VMAX Charge Pump (VCP) in parallel with the existing 12V battery or power source.
• Use adequate hardware to securely mount and install your VCP.
• Connect main battery cables to VCP terminals. An inline fuse is recommended (VCP6:100A, VCP9:100-150A, VCP12:150A, and VCP18: 200-250A)
• After connecting and wiring your system, connect system/load cable ends to VCP terminals.
• Ensure all terminals are tight and secure; do not overtighten.
• Install fuses at VCP terminals for all power cables connecting VCP to system/load (VCP6:150-200A, VCP9:200-250A,
  VCP12:250-300A, and VCP18: 300A+).
• The use of fuses is mainly to protect the cables against any accidental short circuit after installation.
• Up to four VCPs can be connected in parallel for larger systems. Do not connect in series.
• Check and tighten all screws and connections regularly.

Warning:

• Do not connect in series with any other battery.
• Do not connect more than 4 VCPs in parallel.
• Do not short circuit, revers polarity, open or tamper with.
• Do not use in an environment where temperatures exceed 120F.
• Do not mount inside an engine compartment, or close to high temperature devices.
