cated as 20 hours (C20 or 20h, or not expressly in-
dicated) or 5 hours
discharge/charge cycles indicate the number of
times that the battery can hold a charge under the
best conditions, i.e. they indicate the useful battery
service life complying with all the necessary mea-
sures.
Therefore, the capacity of a battery varies depen-
ding on how fast it uses energy (current). That's
why there's such a variation in the capacity values
expressed as C5 or C20. These factors must be
taken into account when comparing products avai-
lable on the market with our own.
This machine can be equipped with two types of
batteries that differ in terms of their construction
and features.
- Pb-Acid battery with tubular armoured modules:
the electrolyte level in each element must be pe-
riodically checked!
!
( ) If one element is no longer covered by
the acid solution it will oxidise in 24 hours,
thus permanently affecting that element's
performance.
( ) Refer to the battery manual to avoid physical
damage and economic loss.
- Gel module battery: this type of battery is main-
tenance free and does not require special environ-
ments for recharging (since it does not emit any
harmful gases); therefore, it is highly recommen-
ded.
!
( ) It should not be taken for granted that
batteries and battery chargers with the same
technical features as those we offer will pro-
duce the same results. Only perfect compati-
bility between these elements (Pb-Acid
batteries, gel batteries and battery chargers)
will safeguard the performances, the service
life, the safety and the economic value inve-
sted.

5.1.3 BATTERY CHARGER

This type of high-frequency battery charger effi-
ciently charges batteries, extending their operating
and service life. In addition, because they can be
configured it is a very versatile solution that redu-
ces the number of chargers required in the ware-
house. The same battery charger can be used for
both Pb-Acid batteries and for gel batteries.
The information indicated on the digital display can
be used to always keep the charging process, the
battery and the battery charger under control (read
the specific manual for more details).
