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
