3.5. Battery and charger
Battery description
The
SOURCETRONIC MPK-102e
micro-ohmmeter uses a rechargeable
12 V battery.
Charging procedure:
Check that the
On/Off
key is OFF.
Connect the equipment to the mains supply.
The
Battery charging
indicator (
) will keep on
lightning with a red light up to completing the charge. At that point, it will
change to a green light, being like this up to the equipment
disconnection from the mains supply.
Make sure that the voltage of the mains supply is
compatible with the voltage supply of the equipment!
At the end of battery useful life, the battery must be recycled or
disposed of properly, in order to protect the environment.
The rechargeable battery does not show the “memory effect” and there are no
restrictions to start charging it as many times as is needed. However the battery
could be damaged if remains in deep discharge for a while.
To avoid this effect, charge the battery before left the equipment in storage and
don’t let pass more than 30 days without recharge, even if the instrument wasn’t
used (under storage, the battery loses part of its charge).
