 The NATO Charging System (NCS) is an additional authorized item for Space Heater Convective (SHC). All SHCs come with a charging adapter that must be attached to a 12-VDC battery charger powered by 120VAC. As an additional authorized item, the NCS can be attached directly to any 24-VDC NATO slave receptacle. The modular NATO connector is very small and light. The contents fit into a small transport bag, which fits easily into the accessories bag for the SHC. The battery connector fits directly onto the SHC battery connector. The NCS is a complete charging system, not just a jumper cable. When attached to the battery and DC power, a small LED blinks and indicates that the battery is charging. The LED stops blinking and stays illuminated when the battery is fully charged. It cannot be hooked up incorrectly and will not drain the vehicle battery below 18-VDC. | Input voltage | 20 - 33 VDC | | Minimum turn-on input voltage | 22.6 VDC | | Ruggedized ABS housing | Withstands tough environments | | Input power limit | Protects the charger if there is an output short-circuit during power-up | | Low-voltage cut-off | This protection shuts down the adapter until the input voltage returns to the proper operating range | | Input over voltage cut-off | This feature protects the charger | | Input and output EMI filters | To prevent electro-magnetic interference | | |
