1.3 Battery charger
The batteries for the EF-S system are charged by the generator via the NATO connection
with a charging current of no more than 45 A when the tractor unit’s engine is running.
Figure 1-6
The intelligent charger measures the temperature of the batteries. This makes it possible to
adjust both the charging current’s amperage and charging voltage to the temperature. At a
low battery temperature, a higher amperage and voltage are required to keep the battery at
the desired voltage. At a higher temperature, the amperage and the voltage can be lower.
The charger can provide a maximum current of 45 A. The charger is protected by two fuses.
The input has an automatic fuse, while the output has a 60 A replaceable fuse. The charger is
sealed. The fuse may only be replaced after permission has been granted by TRIDEC.
The warrantyis invalidated if the seal is broken without permission
to do so from TRIDEC.
