Using and Recharging the Batteries
The Solar Components
Plug the charger into a
30V power supply plug.
The green LED goes on and indicates the
charger is ready.
Cable for recharging
the battery
Plug the batterys cable
into the charger - the
recharging proces
starts and the red LED
goes on
Recharging the battery with the charger
- Take the flat battery out of the shelf and take it into the house
for recharging it (pic. ).
- Plug the charger into a standard 30V wall plug (pic. 3)
- The green LED on the chargers starts glowing and therefore
indicates it is ready for charging the battery (pic. 4)
- Place the battery (pic 5)
- Plug the batteries cable into the plug on the charger (pic. 6)
Now the recharging process starts. The red LED on the charger
starts glowing, which indicates, that the battery is being rechar-
ged. The rechargin process was completed when the red LED
stops glowing - at that point unplug the charger from the 30V
power supply. The battery can then be put back on the shelf
where it stays as a spare until the other battery runs flat.
Duration of the recharging process
The time for recharging the battery depends on the status of the
battery. Usually it will be sufficient to leave the battery connected
to the charger over night. The charger is equipped with a automa-
tic cut off, to pretend the battery from being overloaded.
Possible errors during the recharging process
The green LED does not glow:
Either a short-cut was created or the poles were swopped (with
the standard polarized plug this should not happen)
The red LED does not glow when the flat battery is being con-
nected:
- the battery might be damaged
(a battery which had been stored
flat for a longer time might get damaged and can hardly be
recharged)
- Swopped Poles
(this is only possible when changes were made to
the original battery, e.g. the standard cable was removed)
- Check the connection
(maybe the contacts or plug is a bit oxida-
ted and therefore does not give a good contact)
The red LED does not stop glowing:
- Short-cut inside the battery or on the cables
- The battery cannot reach the maximum value of 13.8V - this
might happen with older batteries. However, the battery might
still be used with the operator but needs to be recharged more
often.
Attention: For recharging the batteries ONLY the supplied
charger must be used - for damages on the batteries caused by
usage of an incorrect charger no guarantee can be claimed.
Please also pay attention to the chargers‘ instructions.
