COMPACT

 

 

User manual 

COMPACT V4.0 E 

19 

 

Caution: No external voltage should be connected to this Input Control. 

4.11 The Temperature sensor 

Operating voltage of lead-acid batteries change depends on the 
temperature. To correct the operating voltages according to the actual 
temperatures, a temperature sensor can be connected to the COMPACT.   
The compensation through the sensor is –3mV/°C/Cell. 
 
Order Number: CT-35 
Dimensions: H x B x T / 58 x 51.5 x 22mm 

5 Programming 

5.1 Standard 

setting 

The COMPACT is delivered with the default setting following: 

5.1.1 Working 

mode 

The working of the charger, the inverter and the transfer are described in chapter 5.3/5.4/5.5. 

5.1.2 Battery 

voltage 

Low voltage 

11.6V / 23.2V / 46.4V 

Float Charge 

13.5V / 27.0V / 54.0V 

End of Charge Voltage 

14.4V / 28.8V / 57.6V 

Equalization 

15.3V / 30.6V / 61.2V 

Absorption Time: 

2 Hours 

5.1.3 Auxiliary 

contact 

Active in case of defect or manual turn off with the LED 10/11/12/13 

5.2 Reset 

value 

When the COMPACT is to be connected to a battery or after an interruption (RESET), it is always 
programmed with these standard settings.  
In order to get to these settings during operation you must press the three Push Buttons 19/20/21 
simultaneously for a minimum of 2 seconds. 

5.3  Battery voltages and absorption time 

The voltage levels (low voltage, float charge, end of charge and equalization) and the duration of 
the absorption charge can be changed.  
The display of these voltages and the times in the program mode are in accordance with the 
diagram shown below:
