Delta-Q QuiQ Charger
Description of Operation
The Delta-Q QuiQ is designed
as an automatic charger. It is
available with charging profiles
for SLA and FLA batteries. The
charger turns itself on when it
is plugged into the wall outlet and turns off when the batteries are fully charged. The charger
continues to monitor the battery voltage and if the battery voltage drops below a threshold value,
the charger will turn on again for a short cycle to keep the batteries topped off.
The charger face plate has a series of lamps to enable monitoring of the charging cycle. More
details of the lamp’s operation are shown later in this section.
Charging with the QuiQ Charger
Note: Opportunity charging is not recommended. For maximum battery life, it is recommended
that the batteries be discharged a minimum of 30% (7 bars showing on the BSI) before
starting a charging cycle.
This charger requires a standard household electrical circuit rated at a minimum of 15 Amps. Consult
an authorized electrician if you do not know the configuration of your circuits.
1. Park the vehicle at an authorized charging station. Refer to Parking in the Driving section.
2. Connect the charging cord to the vehicle charging port and then plug the cord into the AC
power receptacle.
3.
The charger status LEDs will flash in sequence as the charger performs a self-diagnosis
and systems check.
4. The charger will start the charging cycle only after it has determined that all systems are OK.
Note: It is recommended that the charging cycle be allowed to complete normally before
disconnecting the AC power cord.
There is a status light panel on the charger faceplate that displays the current status of the charger.
Refer to grouped safety warnings and information at the start of this chapter.
WARNING
NOTICE
Confirm the chargers active profile is the same type as
the batteries installed in the vehicle. Charging with
an incorrect profile will result in premature failure
of the batteries.
