Sheet 17
3.6 Power Supply
The unit is equipped with an internal not removable Li-Ion battery. The charging of the batteries is fully
automated. The TRAQC-8 DPC is charged when its connected to the mains power supply. Charging will start
as soon as the instrument is connected to the mains supply.
The instrument can be used while charging the battery, but the required charging time could be increased
depending upon the selected operating mode of the instrument.
3.6.1 Battery status display
The status of the battery is displayed with a battery symbol on the lcd display when the instrument is
switched on.
During charging the battery symbol will be filled with lines until it is completely filled and when all lines are
drawn the symbol will be cleared and starts filling again.
When charging is completed the symbol will be completely filled and remains filled as long as the instrument
is connected to the mains supply.
3.6.2 Operating time indication
The instrument has an internal ‘gas gauge’ to measure the battery capacity, this gas gauge is automatically
updated when the battery is charged or discharged and is used to indicate the battery charging state and
remaining operating time.
The charging state of the battery is indicated with lines in the battery symbol.
When the battery is full all lines in the battery are drawn and when the instrument is operating on the
battery less lines will be shown.
The number of lines shown in the battery is a rough indication of the remaining battery capacity.
When the remaining operating time drops below 3 hours the remaining time will be shown next to the
battery symbol
The operating time of the instrument on the indicated charge state depends upon the usage of the
instrument, Operating modes where the electrical outputs are used draw more current from the
battery and therefore shorten the operating time more than other modes.
3.6.3 Instrument charging before storage
The instrument should not be stored for longer periods with an empty battery, doing so will reduce the
capacity of the battery and shorten the battery life.
When the instrument must be stored the battery should be charged to at least 50% of its indicated capacity.
3.6.4 Battery Replacement
The battery can only be replaced by Tradinco or a Tradinco approved repair facility.
