8.7 Recommendations for charging sealed lead acid batteries
Charge/ Discharge
;
Before delivery of your crane scale type LDN 6V-battery was already charged for 12 hours and
is therefore instantly ready to operate.
;
Charge after each discharge even after partly discharge.
;
Never store a discharged battery.
;
A completly discharged battery must be charged for min. 16 hours.
;
If charging time is below 16 hours for more than 3 days then charge one time for 24 hours to
equalize the poor charging.
;
Ambient charging temperature should range between 10°C and 30°C.
Before longer storage periods (2 possibilities)
A:
Disconnect battery from charger and store it fully charged.
! CAUTION: Charge battery for min. 36 hours before storage period of 3 months or more!
B:
You can leave battery on charge for an unlimited time (trickle charge). It is recommended to
store battery at a cool place.
High ambient temperatures
Charging at temperatures above 30°C is not recommended. Your charger is adjusted with a
charging voltage valid for 20°C.
Low ambient temperatures
Charging below 10°C is not recommended. At low temperatures the available capacity is reduced.
Deep discharge
Try to avoid deep discharges. If a deep discharge occured charge battery as soon as possible for
24 hours.
Maintenance
Wipe battery surface from time to time with a dry and clean cloth.
