6.3.2 DC operation
The genset works on the inverter principle, i.e. the alternating current provided is obtained
by converting the generated direct current. This direct current can also be used for DC
consumers in parallel to the alternating current supply:
ƒ
You can charge a 12 V battery at the 12 V connection.
ƒ
At the 5 V USB port you can charge and operate USB devices such as a tablet,
smartphone, lamp etc.
6.3.2.1 Charging the 12 V battery
DANGER!
Battery acid, oxyhydrogen gas formation and short-circuit currents
Corrosion and explosion hazard, electric shock hazard
Batteries contain battery acid that can escape if the battery housing is
damaged. Oxyhydrogen gas can form during battery charging, which can
trigger an explosion if for example sparks are produced at one pole. In the
event of short circuits, currents of several hundred amperes can flow and cause
serious burns.
¨ Disconnect the battery immediately if any damage is apparent.
¨
When connecting and disconnecting the battery, always follow the
sequence described below.
¨ Only charge the battery in a well-ventilated environment.
¨ Do not remain in the immediate proximity of the genset during charging.
If you come into contact with battery acid
¨ Rinse off the affected skin with plenty of water in order to neutralise the
acid. This also applies in particular to eye contact.
You should also consult a doctor without delay.
ATTENTION!
¨ Do not connect the battery being charged until the genset is in operation.
¨ Make sure that you connect the charging cable clamps securely to the
battery poles. Do not mix up the cables.
¨
Make sure that the battery housing is undamaged and clean.
¨
Make sure that the oxyhydrogen gas produced during charging can
escape:
– Non-maintenance-free battery : Remove the caps from all battery cells.
Check the filling level of the battery water and top it up with distilled
water as necessary.
– Maintenance-free battery : Make sure that the ventilation tubes in the
battery cover are clean and freely accessible.
