15. FAQ 

1. What is the maximum voltage supported for solar 

panels?

 

power

service

 units support a maximum voltage of 28V.

 

2. HOW  MUCH  CURRENT  DOES  THE  power

service

  UNIT 

CONSUME?

 

13,0

m

A

.

 

3. it  is  possible  to  recharge  the  starting  battery  with 

the power

service

?

 

currently  it  is  not  possible  to  recharge  the  engine  battery, 
only the service batteries. The engine battery is not charged 
by  the 

power

service

,  even  if  the  device  is  connected  to  the 

mains power supply electricity mains power supply or to the 
solar panel. PLEASE ASK YOUR INSTALLER OR SUPPLIER FOR ADVICE. 

4. sometimes  the  VOLTAGE  AT  THE  LEISURE  BATTERY  rises 

above 15.8/16V, is this normal?

THIS IS normal during the desulfation phase. 

 

5. How long is the desulfation phase?

 

desulphation  has  a  variable  duration,  depending  on  the 
length of the general charge. It can last up to 2 hours

6. it  is  possible  to  connect  a  remote  control  to  the 

power

service

?

 

no,  it  is  not  possible  to  use  a  remote  control  to  control  or 
display the functioning of the 

power

service

. We recommend 

using THE NDS i-manager device to get all the information on 
the battery charge status

7. can  a  solar  panel  be  connected  to  the  power

service

 

or is another device needed?

 

no  intermediate  device  is  required,  the 

power

service

 

incorporates a PWM charge controller, so you only need to 
connect the panel to terminal 7
