Installation & Safety

Installation

A wire loop provides for selection of battery types: flooded (Wet) type (do not cut the 

wire loop), sealed (AGM, Dry) and gel type (cut the wire loop and tape the wire ends 

back with electricians tape).

Battery Cable connection: Black output wire goes to battery negative terminal, Red 

output wire goes to battery positive terminal. 

AC interlock wire – should follow equipment manufacturer’s instruction for correct 

connection method 

Fix the battery charger to a stable surface through the appropriate holes inserted on 

the fixing flanges.

Preferably the charger should be installed horizontally – with the heart-sink facing 

to the side. The vertical installation (with the heat-sink facing up) is allowed. Never 

install in the vertical position with the heat-sink facing down.

Ensure all heat sinks are not obstructed, to avoid the overheating. Do not put the 

battery charger near heat sources. 

Make sure that free space around the battery charger is sufficient to provide 

adequate ventilation and an easy access to cables sockets

Safety Instructions

Verify that the available supply voltage corresponds to the voltage that is stated on 

the battery charger name plate.

To avoid damaging the power cord, do not put anything on it or place it where it will 

be walked on. If the cord becomes damaged or frayed, replace it immediately.

Do not operate a charger that is not working correctly. An electric shock hazard or 

battery explosion hazard from overcharging may exist. 

Though the charger is resistant to water and spray washing. Do not wash the 

charger when it is hot. Do not fully immerse or spray wash for an extended time. 

Liquid can get inside charger and may cause serious injury or death. 

The charger is designed for use in industrial areas. It is not designed to be used 

in medical (hospital) environments where interference with life critical equipment 

could cause serious injury. 

This charger is intended only for use on industrial equipment and 24V lead acid 

batteries

The charger surface can get hot while operating and contact with the skin or 

surrounding materials should be avoided. 

If you use an extension power cable with your charger, ensure the total current draw 

of the items plugged into the extension power cable do not exceed the current
