Description

The Mac Plus 24/24-50 + CZone is the highest-power model in the range, a non-isolated DC-DC charger that maintains a 24 V service battery from a 24 V source at up to 50 A (1425 W). Using the proven Mastervolt 3-step+ charge algorithm it delivers a quick, safe and consistent charge even to completely flat batteries, while engine-run detection ensures the starter battery is never drained. It also works seamlessly with Euro 5/6 smart alternators, supplying constant power even when the alternator is inactive.

A power-efficient, fanless aluminium housing keeps the unit silent and well protected against dust and water. It supports Gel, AGM and Lithium Ion (incl. LiFePO4) batteries, and up to four units can be paralleled for charging capacities well over 100 A. Analog voltage sense ports compensate for voltage drop, and a power supply mode provides stable output for sensitive loads.

Compatibility with CZone, NMEA 2000 and MasterBus gives superior monitoring and control, with configuration via MasterAdjust, the CZone tool or the on-board DIP switches.

How much power does the 24/24-50 deliver?
It is the highest-power model in the range, with a 50 A maximum output current and up to 1425 W from a 24 V input to a 24 V output.
Why use a 24 V to 24 V DC-DC charger?
It compensates for cable voltage drop between a 24 V source and a remote 24 V service battery, delivering a full, controlled 3-step+ charge and a stable, regulated output.
Can several units be combined?
Yes. Up to four Mac Plus units can be configured in parallel for charging capacities well over 100 A.
Which battery types can it charge?
Gel, AGM, Lithium Ion (including LiFePO4) and user-defined battery types.
What is the + CZone version?
It adds native CZone and NMEA 2000 connectivity alongside MasterBus, so the charger can be monitored and configured directly from a CZone digital switching system.
