INSTRUCTIONS:
TEMPERATURE SENSOR Type: ABS-248
(At-the-Battery Sensor)
MANDATORY WHEN CHARGER IS USED WITH Sealed
or Maintenance-type Aviation batteries, regardless of
construction (AGM, Free-Electrolyte = filler caps)
Congratulations on purchasing the most advanced charger-
maintainer-desulfator conditioner on the market today. Read you
manual carefully to understand all of its features. Your charger came
with the At-the-Battery Sensor ABS-248. Please read and fully
understand all of the following before beginning your installation.
Your temperature sensing system is made up of two components.
The thermal sensor w/ ring terminal and male plug w/ dust cover
both shown below with extension cord attached. This cord then
attaches directly to the mating female receptacle located on the
charger
Do NOT modify by extending or shortening the extension cord.
Attaching the temperature sensor with extension cord.
Your first choice should be to connect it to the Negative (-) post
(clamp / screw) of the battery. This is the best location to sense the
temperature of the battery.
The second choice is to place it as close to the battery as possible.
Attachment of the sensor to the side or top of battery is also a
possible option, under the right circumstances. Be careful to ensure
it will not come loose in service.
