3.0 INTRODUCTION
The MKSM enclosure houses a KAPower module, contactor, PLC Module (Programable
Logic Controller), circuit breaker, cables, conductors, and connectors.
KAPower is designed as an auxiliary power source to be installed in parallel with cranking
batteries. It derives its power from batteries or an engine charging system and discharges
this power when needed. KAPower is intended for supplying electric power to various loads
operated in high pulse power (engine cranking) modes. KAPower will enhance and provide
for reliable cranking and starting of internal combustion engines. This capability may allow for
removal of half or most existing starting batteries.
KAPower is not a high voltage device. It supplies the same amount of voltage as its
charge. A charged module should be treated as a fully charged battery.
Do not short circuit KAPower module terminals. Burning or igniting of combustible
materials adjacent to the point of short circuit may result from a short circuit. Do not
place any conductive objects or materials across terminal posts. In case of accidental
short-circuiting of the KAPower module, or individual capacitors, immediately mitigate
short by removing the object causing short.
Noncompliance with the requirements set forth in this manual may result in
KAPower module failure. Such requirements shall be reviewed and followed
during KAPower module operation and installation.
The KAPower module is polarity sensitive. Polarity shall be strictly observed when
connecting the KAPower module.
