ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
SCHAUDT WA 121525 BOOSTER UNIT
General
Your vehicle may be fitted with a Schaudt
booster unit which is only required if the base
vehicle is fitted with a smart alternator.
The unit does not require any interaction from
the end user or require any maintenance and
will simply function as its intended, during the
normal operation of the vehicle.
Function
The WA 121525 Booster is used for the
optimum charging of leisure batteries such as
lead-acid, led-gel, AGM & lithium.
The main purpose of the booster is to ensure
the leisure battery remains charged whilst the
vehicle is in motion.
Your vehicle may be fitted with a smart
energy saving alternator, this is engine/base
vehicle dependant. The charge voltage for
these alternators varies greatly depending on
the driving state. Without a booster fitted, the
vehicle leisure batteries are at risk of
discharge whilst the vehicle is in motion.
Location
The location of the booster will vary
depending on each vehicle layout, but will
always be located within 1m of the vehicle’s
power distribution unit.
Please contact Erwin Hymer Group UK Ltd if
