Charging and maintenance

• Red clamp: Positive (

+

) fastening lug

• Black clamp: Negative (

–

) fastening lug

• On every sensor the polarity of the fastening lugs are

engraved on the sensor body using

+

and

–

characters.

2

Ensure that mounting materials do not short circuit the
charging lugs.

• This may be ropes, wires, chains or other items that

obstruct or short circuit the electrical connections.

3

When the charger is connected to the sensor, check the
charger lamps.

• Once connected, the charger will identify whether the

sensor connected can be fast charged or not. This is
shown by the yellow lamps. If the top lamp flashes
rapidly, the sensor is fast charged.

• If your sensor can be fast charged, the charger will

also check the internal temperature of the sensor. The
temperature is shown on the “thermometer” on the
charger’s front panel. If you charge a sensor that can not
be fast charged, this “thermometer” does not work.

4

Observe the charge times and temperature limitations!

•

Fast charge:

The PI Charger will first recharge the

sensor battery for approximately one hour to reach 70%
battery capacity, then approximately three hours to reach
100% capacity. Once fully charged, a constant trickle
charge will compensate for self discharging.

Note

Fast charging only applies to PI sensors!

•

Normal charge:

The PI Charger will first recharge the

sensor battery for 16 hours for full battery capacity. This
mode applies for charging PI sensors outside specified
temperature range, and for all PS sensors.

• Charging must only take place within the specified

temperature range. For best results, keep the ambient
temperature b10 and +25°C.

Note

Do not charge sensors in temperatures above +50°C or
below 0°C!
