Directions for installation
•
Use reliable cable lugs to fix the wires to the
DC-output and fasten all connections tightly.
•
Refer to specifications for the diameter of the
cables to be used to connect the batteries to
the charger.
•
Integrate a fuse in the positive wiring and
place it nearby the battery. See specifications
for the recommended fuse.
•
Due to possible moisture accumulation and
optimal heat discharge, the battery charger
must be installed in a well-ventilated room as
close as possible to the batteries. We advise
to mount the unit in a vertical position with
the connecting cables downward.
•
Do not install the product straight above the
batteries because of possible corrosive
sulphur fumes.
To minimize any EMC-interference we
advise to connect the negative pole of the
supplying battery to the ground.
Installation
For correct installation see the references
between brackets () in the "INSTALLATION"
drawing.
1. Be sure the battery charger is disconnected
from any power source and that no load is
connected to the batteries during installation.
2. Connect the charger's negative output (4) to
the minus pole (–) of the battery. Connect
the charger's positive output (2 or 3) to the
plus pole (+) of the battery. The plus pole of
an optional extra battery set (e.g. a starter
battery) should be connected to the slave
output (5).
3. The temperature sensor can be plugged into
one of both RJ12 plugs (6 or 7). Locate the
temperature sensor at a spot that is
representative for the battery's temperature.
4. Plug the AC mains cable into the wall socket.
The battery charger will now commence the
charging cycle.
