3 options to connect the
BG-Counter 2 to power via
the 12 V power connection
Option 2: 12 V battery (provided by user)
This is recommended if the counter is operated in a location for a few days,
before being serviced or moved. The minimum number of hours of operation
possible with a full battery can be calculated as follows:
Operation hours = Battery capacity (Ah) x 2.
For example, with a battery capacity of 60 Ah (Ampere hours), the counter and
fan can be operated for at least 60 x 2 = 120 hours = 5 full days.
Use only “deep cycle” lead-acid batteries. Normal car batteries are not desig
-
ned for continuous charge/discharge cycling, and thus would have significantly
reduced lifetime.
