24V to 12V
Battery Equalizer
Operating Instructions
Please read these instructions before use
Congratulations on purchasing your new GSL Electronics Microprocessor Controlled Battery Equalizer. The equalizer
is designed for use in 24V battery systems where a centre tap is used to supply heavy 12V loads. This innovative
microcontroller based design ensures that both 12V series connected batteries remain balanced during charging even
under highly unbalanced load currents, ensuring the highest possible battery life expectancy and reliability.

Installation & Safety Precautions:
1.
The following connection sequence is to be followed: Ground (BLACK), Input (BLUE), Output (RED) and Control (WHITE).
2.
Preferably mount the unit inside the vehicle. Avoid locations where external heat is produced
e.g. exhaust system or where the batteries are located.
3.
Choose a position with good ventilation where air can pass freely around the unit.
4.
Ensure the unit is protected from water spray and other sources of contamination e.g. oil, grease and dust.
5.
6.
, due to gases emitted
from the battery, which may ignite and explode.
7.
Never smoke or light cigarettes near a battery.
8.
Do not place tools on top of battery or allow tools to fall on battery.
9.
Always wear eye protection near a charging battery.
10.
Ensure a “well” ventilated area is used when testing or re-charging batteries.
11.
Ensure ventilation is adequate and venting holes are not obstructed. Inadequate ventilation may over-heat
12.
. Seek medical attention if necessary.
If the unit is in one of the following conditions. reset as follows:-
Output Over Voltage :
If the output over voltage protection has been tripped then there will be no operation from the unit.
Contact supplier or GSL Electronics for Warranty Advice.
Thermal Protection :
For your safety and for the longevity of your purchase, the unit will shut down to protect itself and your
batteries when the unit exceeds its nominal operating temperature. To reset this condition the unit must be disconnected from
the battery for at least one minute to allow cooling and for the microprocessor to reset.
Should product require service, return it to your place of purchase for Warranty Advice.
Where the unit does not reset, contact your Suppler or GS
L Electronics for Warranty Advice.
LED Indicators:
the unit via two LED indicators.
Input LED:
Nominal input range, above 25V, is indicated by the Input LED remaining solid. Flashing Input LED indicates that
input is below 25V. If the input voltage drops below 22V the Equalizer will switch off. When the voltage returns to above 23V the
unit will return to normal operation.
