If after the adjustment of the temperature sensor the ‘mode’ button is not used for a
duration of 10 seconds the charger will exit the set-up mode. If at that time a battery
has already been connected then the charging process will start according to the selected
program.
The selected settings will always briefly light up when turning on the charger. In the
appendix you will find a brief list of all the charge settings.
If the mains voltage supply is removed, the last chosen charging program will remain in
the memory of the battery charger. In the case the charger will next be utilized for a
different function than the previous one then the proper adjustments will have to be
made to the charging program.

The atmosphere
The battery should be charged in an area with adequate because it may emit explosive
gases. Be sure that there is enough space around the charger. This is important for the
air circulation, for cooling of the charger and release of gases emitted. The TBC 600 may
be used outdoors, however protect the charger against rain.
Important
Do not charge when there is a fuel leak or fuel is evaporating.
Mounting
The TBC 600 should be mounted vertically with the front side connectors facing upwards.
Important
When the charger is to be used in an aluminium or steel ship/vessel, it must be
insulated by suspension. That is, in order to avoid electrolysis, the casing of the
charger may not be in contact with the ship.
Wire thickness
You can use the formula given below to determine the correct cable thickness. If the
result of the calculation is not a standard, existing cable thickness then choose the cable
that is the closed by.
Max. current x distance x 0,2 = cable mm2
battery – charger
Example : a TBC 612-1-25 is connected to the battery on a distance of 2 meters.
25 (current) x 2 (meter) x 0,2 = 10mmq
If the result is not a standard cable thickness, then use the nearest standard cable
thickness.
