Starting full charging for operation of the craft
Starting partial charging for air transport / storage
8. Charging is performed automatically. The charge state
of the accumulator box is shown by the accumulator
symbol on the right side of the SEABOB display. As the
charge state increases, more bars appear in the ac-
cumulator symbol. The estimated remaining charging
time is displayed under the accumulator symbol.
Note:
An increase in the accumulator temperature
(shown on display) during charging is normal. The tem-
perature is monitored electronically. If the accumulator
overheats, the accumulator management system tempo-
rarily stops the charging process.
9. On models with the Accumulator Change System
(ACS), you can view the charge state when the ac-
cumulator box ACS is attached to the SEABOB dur-
ing the charging process. The charge state and the
estimated remaining charging time are shown in the
SEABOB’s display only. The charger is only equipped
with an LED showing which operation is being per-
formed (see "Data Sheet for Charger" and "Instruc-
tions for Use of the Quick Charger").
10. However, the visual display is not needed for charg-
ing. The accumulator box ACS can be charged without
actually being attached to the SEABOB. When this
is done, charging is performed according to the last
charging command that was given. The accumula-
tor box is either partially charged for air transport /
storage or fully charged for operation, depending on
whether the green button (air transport / storage) or
red button (operation) was tapped on the Control-
grips when charging was last programmed.
Note:
Regardless of its charge state, the accumulator
box ACS can be attached to the SEABOB ACS.
Charging of the accumulator box is automatically con-
trolled by the electronic system of the charger and the
microprocessor-controlled accumulator management
system, which is integrated in the accumulator box. The
nature of the electronics makes it impossible to over-
charge the accumulator box. The Li-Ion accumulator cells
of the accumulator box do not have a memory effect. This
makes it possible to charge the accumulator box regard-
less of its charge state and without having to discharge
it beforehand. The internal voltage level of each Li-Ion
accumulator cell is monitored electronically. Differences
between the cells are compensated for and balanced
(Cell-Balance).
Charge an accumulator box which is discharged /
run to empty immediately after use (within
24 hours) and during longer periods of storage continu-
ously (trickle-charge) to avoid total discharge, which may
cause irreparable chemical damage to the valuable High-
Energy Li-Ion accumulator cells. Charge to at least the
charge state "air transport / storage". Do not interrupt
charging before this charge state has been reached.
Note:
You can interrupt charging while fully charging the
accumulator box, as long as the minimum charge state
"air transport / storage" has been reached. When this is
done, however, the power of the craft is reduced due to
the lower accumulator charge state.
