Important Safety Instructions
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!
This manual contains important instructions and warnings that should be followed during the installation, operation and
storage of all Tripp Lite Chargers.
Location Warnings
• Do not mount unit with its front or rear panel facing down (at any angle). Mounting in this manner will seriously inhibit the unit’s internal
cooling, eventually causing product damage not covered under warranty.
• Use your charger in a location or compartment that minimizes exposure to heat, dust, direct sunlight and moisture. Flooding the unit with
water will cause it to short-circuit and could cause personal injury due to electric shock.
• For proper ventilation, allow a minimum 2 inches of clearance at front and back of the charger. To avoid overheating, the compartment
that houses the charger must be properly ventilated with adequate outside air flow. The heavier the load of connected equipment, the
more heat will be generated by the unit.
• Do not install or use the charger near flammable materials, fuel or chemicals.
Battery Connection Warnings
• Because explosive hydrogen gas can accumulate near batteries if they are not well ventilated, do not connect to batteries in a “dead air”
compartment. The battery compartment should have some ventilation to outside air.
• Sparks may result during final battery connection. Always observe proper polarity as batteries are connected.
• Do not allow objects to contact the DC input terminals or battery terminals. Do not short or bridge these terminals together. Serious
personal injury or property damage could result.
Service Warnings
• During service work, both the AC source and battery should be disconnected.
• Potentially lethal voltages exist when the AC source is connected.
• An energy hazard exists when the battery is connected to the charger and AC source.
Equipment Connection Warnings
• Use of this equipment in life support applications where failure of this equipment can reasonably be expected to cause the failure of the
life support equipment or to significantly affect its safety or effectiveness is not recommended. Do not use this equipment in the presence
of a flammable anesthetic mixture with air, oxygen or nitrous oxide.
Operation Warnings
• Your charger is designed only for battery charging. It cannot be used as a power supply.
• Only charge lead-acid, NiMH and enclosed cell batteries.
• Do not attempt to charge a battery whose voltage differs from the charger’s selected voltage setting.
• Your charger does not require routine maintenance.
• Your charger is designed with an aluminum heat-sink housing that safely dissipates excess heat. Avoid touching the unit during charging,
as external temperatures can reach up to 122°F (50°C).
