2. INSTALLATION

2.1 

Unpacking

The charger package should contain the following items :

 

― Battery charger

 

― 3x rubber cable grommets

 

― Battery temperature sensor (3m)

 

― Owner’s manual

 

― 3x M6 crimp terminals

 

CAUTION

After unpacking, check if the product shows any mechanical damage. Never use the product 
when the enclosure shows any visual damage caused by harsh handling, or when it has been 
dropped accidentally. Contact your local supplier for further information.

2.2 

Mounting

Please see the image below for the product dimensions and mounting screw distances.

Further location and mounting details:

1.  Choose an appropriate mounting location in a well ventilated room that is protected against 

rain, snow, spray, vapour, moisture and dust.

2.  Make sure that the ambient temperature is between -20°C and +60°C. Above +40°C the 

charge will automatically derate the output power.

3.  Do not expose the charger to any heat source (such as direct sunlight or heating).  

Avoid additional heating of the product. Also avoid charger exposure to excessive vibration.

4.  Never install the charger in an enviroment where there is danger of gas or dust explosions, 

like in the same compartment as the batteries or directly above vented batteries.

5.  When installing the charger horizontally (floor-mounting), any mounting direction  

is acceptable. When installing vertically, please observe the following preferred  
enclosure orientations:
