HARGING

 

 

During charging, the DC-UPS consumes additional current from the input. See chapter “Input”. 

When charging is completed, the “Ready LED” stops flashing and is on solid and the “Ready relay contact” closes.

*) 

Initial charging means that no input voltage was applied for several hours or longer and the capacitor is completely discharged by the 
internal electronics. 

**)  Recharging means that the electronics inside the DC-UPS has not completely discharged the capacitor. The values in the table apply when 

the input voltage is applied immediately after buffering has stopped. 

Note: 
At the end of the charging process the active balancing circuit reduces the charging current periodically, which can be 
seen as current oscillations on the input current.
