Charging more than one bank of batteries 

CAUTION! When charging more than one bank of batteries at the same time using 3 Stage 
Charging, ensure that the batteries in the banks are in a similar discharged condition.If one 
bank is completely discharged and another is almost fully charged, the bank that is fully charged 
will be subjected to over charge condition during the time when the charger remains in Boost 
Stage for charging the completely discharged bank.

 

Powering other DC Loads 
The charger can be used as a power supply or as a DC UPS. For both these applications, 
first set the Dip Switch to “Battery with load“.(See under” Selecting the Type of Battery and 
Charging Stages“ on page 4 ) 

To use as a power supply, first switch off the DC load. Connect the DC load between the 
common negative terminal and one of the three positive terminals. Ensure that the maximum 
current drawn by the DC load is below the maximum current rating of the charger. 
Switch on 
the charger and then the DC load 

In a DC UPS (Un-interruptible Power Supply),the charger 
simultaneously powers the DC load as well as the battery. As long as the AC power to the 
charger is available and the charger isworking normally, the charger will supply the DC load as 
well as charge/float the battery.  In case the AC power fails or if the charger stopsworking, the 
battery will automatically power the DC load. As soon as the AC power to the charger is 
restored, the DC load will once again be fed by the charger and at the sametime the battery 
will be recharged. CAUTION! Please ensure that the sum of the current drawn by the DC load 
and the current desired for charging the battery is less than the maximum current capacity of 
the charger. To use as a DC UPS, first switch off the DC load and connect it to the battery. 
Now connect the battery as explained above under ”Charging a Battery outside theVehicle“ 
on page 9. Switch on the charger and then switch on the DC load
