charge, the same slide switch can be set in ON position. In case of doubt leave the
setting in OFF position.
This will allow an equalizing cycle (higher end of charge voltage) during the next
charge process. Since then equalizing will occur every 25 usual cycles.
3.6.1 Connection to battery
3.6.1.1 On the appliance side
Mount the supplied glands on the battery cable before the setting of the cable
terminal. Set the cable terminal and mount the glands on the appliance. Repeat the
process for the second battery cable.
Connect the red
cable (+) on the “+
Battery” appliance
connection point
according to the plan
below.
Connect the black
cable (-) on the “-
Battery” appliance
connection point
according to the plan
above.
The supplied fuse
(except with the HPC
2800-12) must be
mounted according to
the plan below.
3.6.1.2 On the battery side
Caution: before connecting the battery, check carefully the voltage and the
battery polarity with a voltmeter. A polarity reverse will seriously damage the
inverter (for example: connecting a HPC 2800-12 to a 48V-Battery).
Get the batteries ready for connection: suitable terminals, fuse on one of the
connection points, cable in good shape with, if necessary, terminals rightly set. Mount
the red cable on the positive (+) pole, and the black cable on the negative (-) pole of
the battery.
While connecting the second cable, a spark due to the charge of the capacities at the
input stage is normal. In the same time an acoustic signal tells that the control
processor has started. All LED’s of the synoptic light during a short time, then the
synoptic shows that the appliance has stopped. The LED “OFF” (13) must be turned
on.
After the battery connection, the battery state-of-charge LED shows a 100% capacity
during 1 to 2 minutes, the necessary time for the processor to compute again the
current state-of-charge of the battery.
If the LED “Battery Low/High” (12) is lighting, the battery voltage is too low. If it is
blinking, the battery voltage is too high. Caution: a battery voltage too high or
inappropriate can seriously damage the HP-COMPACT. For instance the connection
of a 24 V battery with the HP-COMPACT 2800-12.
If by mistake the HP-COMPACT has been wrongly been connected (reverse battery
polarity) it is likely that the internal protection fuse has melted and has to be replaced.
In that case it is necessary to disconnect all connections to the HP-COMPACT,
