7. OPERATION
7.1.
Charging Connections.
7.1.1.
Charging batteries connected to the vehicle.
7.1.2. Before starting to charge the battery, make sure the power supply lead is
NOT
plugged into the mains supply.
7.1.3. Locate the vehicle’s earthing point, which is normally connected to the negative battery terminal.
7.1.4. Charging a battery with negative earth, grounded to the vehicle’s chassis:
• Connect the output lead with red clamp to the positive terminal (+) of the battery.
• Connect the output lead with black clamp to the vehicle’s earthing point, keeping it away from the battery and from the fuel pipes etc.
NOTE: If connecting to an older vehicle, it may be positively earthed, in which case the clamps need to be connected in reverse.
7.1.5.
Charging batteries that are not connected to a vehicle.
7.1.6. Before starting to charge the battery, make sure the power supply lead is
NOT
plugged into the mains supply.
7.1.7. Connect the output lead with red clamp to the positive terminal (+) of the battery.
7.1.8. Connect the output lead with black clamp to the negative terminal (-) of the battery.
ATTENTION:
Make sure both clamps of the output leads generate a suitable contact with their corresponding terminals.
7.2.
Operating the Battery Charger.
7.2.1. Once the output leads are connected to the battery, check that the positive lead is connected correctly to either the 12V or 24V
connector on the charger as required. Then plug the power supply lead of the battery charger into the mains supply, making sure that
the voltage matches the nominal voltage of the battery charger (230V-50Hz); having done this, the charger will emit an acoustic signal for
½ second and all the LED indicators on the control panel will switch on for 2 seconds, the digital display shows ----.
7.2.2. The battery charger is configured in
Standby
mode, for example: ON LED lit, Charge lit, Wet LED lit. The LEDs light up differently
based on the last program saved (see section
6.4.
Saving Settings
).
7.2.3. At this stage, with the battery charger in
Standby
mode, set the charging parameters suitable for the type of battery to be charged,
using the buttons on the control panel. The charging parameters selected are displayed by the corresponding LED, which switches on.
7.2.4.
Settable charging parameters:
• Function key:
Charge, Start, Supply, Recovery.
• Set Capacity key:
Based on the capacity of the battery and on the work cycle, select:
- Charge 30Ah/70Ah: Charge for batteries with capacity from 30Ah to 70Ah.
- Charge 80Ah/120Ah: Charge for batteries with capacity from 80Ah to120Ah.
- Charge 120Ah/200Ah: Charge for batteries with capacity from 120Ah to 200Ah.
- Charge 4Ah/350Ah: Supports all batteries from a minimum capacity of 4Ah up to a maximum of 350Ah.
Adjust the output current from 0 up to the maximum supported by the operating mode currently selected on the
charger using the dial on the right of the panel.
•
Type key:
Depending on the construction/type of the battery, select: Wet or Agm/Spiral Cell.
