Battery Chargers
7.1 General Information
There are two versions of the battery charger: a single-bay unit with part number 1PRT-8778-A001, and a six-bay
charger with part number 1PRT-8779-A001.
Both units have been specifically designed to work with the Cattron Safe-E-Stop PSDs, versions 1 or 2.
These chargers will rapidly charge the battery, monitor the battery for safe charging, and provide years of reliable
service with proper care.
The chargers require no special maintenance, but in the event of damage to the unit, the external power supply,
or cord, contact Cattron customer service for a replacement.
Unlinked PSDs should not be visible to personnel in the area to potentially be confused for an available E-Stop
switch. If PSDs in chargers are unlinked, they should be placed within a secondary enclosure or positioned so
that the E-Stop switch faces toward a wall and away from personnel.
Always fully charge the PSD before initial use. The PSD’s battery may be charged when it is partially discharged.
It is neither necessary nor advantageous to fully discharge the battery before recharging.
Return the PSD to Cattron for service or recycling. Do not discard unwanted PSDs in the trash or incinerate. The
battery may explode if exposed to fire or excessive heat.
7.2 Caution
Keep the battery charger in a dry location and only operate it within a temperature range of 0 to 40° Celsius (32 to
104° Fahrenheit).
Make sure contacts in the charging bay and the PSD are clean. If the contacts require cleaning, disconnect the
charger from the power supply and wipe with a dry, lint-free cloth.
Do not allow wire or metal objects to touch contacts in the charging slot or any internal part of the charger.
Do not remove the charger’s housing or make any modification to the charger. The charger has no user-
serviceable parts.
Use only the power supply included with the charger. Use of other power supplies may damage the charger or the
battery being charged.
