TriCOM FUTUR Chargers
With the new TriCOM FUTUR, we intro-
duce the first fully resonant switching HF
(High Frequency) charging system in the
world.
In principle, HF chargers are “switching
power supplies”, which means that elec-
tronic switches are switched on and off
at high frequency (50-100 kHz). All HF
chargers currently available today have
a switching process that is not “full res-
onant”, but “quasi-resonant” or “hard”
which inherently leads to power loss
during the switching process.
For the new TriCOM Futur we have de-
veloped a state-of-the-art charger that is
ahead of its time: A new SR-Switching
Technology (Soft Resonance) that guaran-
tees very “soft,” lossless, high frequency
switching (from 50 kHz to 170 kHz) over the
entire operating range of a full charging
cycle.
This HF technology is new for charging
devices and guarantees a maximum effi-
ciency of up to 97%. In addition, a maxi-
mum total charging efficiency is achieved
in connection with the improved TriCOM
Futur charge characteristics.
In multi-module operation, an innovative,
intelligent module activation manage-
ment also optimizes energy consumption
even further during partial load operation
and increases the service life.

Programming with a Touch Display
TriCOM FUTUR resonant frequency Char-
gers, in addition to the proven “one but-
ton” operation, are now available with the
new Easy Touch graphic display
Using the Easy Touch resistive touch
screen with its clear and structured
menus, you can quickly select between
32 different charging programs for differ-
ent types of batteries and different battery
capacities. You can also switch to a set-up
mode menu which allows you to program
individual parameters.

TriCOM FUTUR Chargers
Intelligent Charging
Our overarching design goal, regardless
of whether our products are used individ-
ually or in a group, is always to conserve
natural resources and reduce the environ-
mental impact.
Regardless of whether the new high effi-
ciency TriCOM FUTUR is used in combina-
tion with the patented Futur charging pro-
cess or the charging station is managed
with Total E-Control 4.0, the environment
as well as the users benefit equally from
innovative and energy, time, cost, and re-
source-saving system solutions.
The »IONIC Mixing« option has been
further
improved
to
reduce
power
consumption by up to 12%. This results in
lower water consumption and therefore the
maintenance
intervals
are
significantly
extended.

Monitoring and Management System
The new Total E-Control 4.0 wireless
monitoring and management system per-
manently optimizes battery and vehicle
usage, and thus saves resources.
The Total E-Control offers the ability to use
this proven management system more ef-
fectively through an innovative wireless
networking capability and it can be selec-
tively expanded using our new monitor-
ing modules.
Combinable System Modules:
next Battery Guard 4.0 - the proven, in-
telligent monitoring system with wire-
less networking.
icon Battery Guard 4.0 - now has a new
wireless battery controller.
Central monitoring - of batteries and
chargers (can be configured individually).
NetVision - remote access to batteries
and chargers via the Internet/mobile
phone network.
ConVision App - monitoring and scan-
ning function for tablets and smart-
phones.

The clean solution
An innovative, “encapsulated active Cool-
ing” system for the power electronics
guarantees a longer service life and saves
money as well as resources.
The high efficiency of the TriCOM FUTUR
with the new SR-Switching Technology
simultaneously minimizes heat losses.
For this reason, direct active cooling of
the electrical system using a fan is not
necessary. The passive convection cooling
system prevents dirt and grime from pen-
etrating into the device and thus protects
the electronic modules. This increases the
service life of the charger and significantly
minimizes contamination by water, dust,
and acid fumes. This permanently reduces
service, replacement parts, and material
costs.
KEEP COOL
Passive Cool – Active Save
TriCOM FUTUR Chargers
Service-friendly design
The modular system that has proven it-
self over many years continues in the new
TriCOM FUTUR and is further optimized
with Quick Check.
Quick Check allows very effective in-
spection of the charger and allows quick,
time-saving servicing.
The status of the charger and possible
application errors can be queried very
quickly via ConVision, the Easy Touch dis-
play, or the USB interface. When service is
required, the service technician has quick
access to the charger via the front panel
and has at a glance a full overview of the
status of the charger controller, the power
module, and the power phases available.
If necessary, the power modules can be
swapped quickly and easily using the new
plug-in system on the side panel.
The charger can continue to operate in
the “In-Service” mode even when fewer
modules are installed.
