INTRODUCTION

The Auto Charge 4000 is a compact, completely automatic, dual channel battery charger

designed for vehicles with a dual battery system. The charger is ruggedized to withstand the

shock and vibration encountered by vehicle mounted equipment.

Charger features:

• Independent charge controls for each battery

• Electronic remote sensing of true battery voltages, eliminates the need

   for sensing wires

• Automatic current limiting

• Built-in BATTERY SAVER

• Remote dual battery charge/condition indicator

• Power “ON” LED indicator

• BATTERY SAVER overload indicator

CHARGE CONTROLS & ELECTRONIC REMOTE SENSING

The Auto Charge 4000 contains two independent charge controls, one for each

battery.  Automatic electronic remote sensing measures the true voltage of each

battery, eliminating the need for the additional sense wires. The output current of

any charger is inherently a series of pulses whose frequency is determined by the

power line frequency. Therefore there are brief intervals during which no charging

current flows. During this brief interval the Auto Charge 4000 measures and stores

the battery voltage. This voltage is compared to a standard and any error is detected

and used to control the charger output to the desired level. There is no "trickle

charge" and therefore no danger of overcharging and water boil-off.
