Mascot, a top name in power electronics, has introduced the Model 4340 — a cutting-edge, high-efficiency battery charger built for reliable use with a wide range of battery types, including Lead Acid, Li-Ion, LiFePO4, and NiMH.

The Model 4340 uses a microcontroller-based three-stage charging system that boosts battery life and runtime. It features smart wake-up technology to safely revive deeply discharged batteries, and a soft-start function that applies current gradually to protect sensitive battery cells.

Built for demanding environments, this charger is ideal for medical devices, telecom systems, energy storage units, and electric mobility solutions. It supports fast and safe charging, and is certified to meet top industry standards like EN 60601-1 (edition 3.2), EN 60601-1-11 (home healthcare), and UL regulations — making it well-suited for medical and professional use.

Mascot also offers a Configurable Battery Charger (CBC) toolkit that lets users adjust charging settings through a PC, ensuring flexibility across applications. Customers can further customize the charger with options like different connectors, cables, IP-rated casings, open-frame versions, private labeling, and additional certifications.

The Model 4340 features a smart three-stage charging system that restores batteries to full voltage, follows with a saturation phase to reach peak capacity, and then automatically stops charging to avoid overcharging. This process ensures reliable performance and helps extend battery life. A tri-color LED provides easy-to-read indicators for charging status, errors, and standby mode. For convenient installation, a wall-mount bracket is available as an option.

With its flexible design, strong safety certifications, advanced charging intelligence, and customizable features, the 4340 sets a new benchmark for professional-grade battery chargers.
