Troubleshooting Charging Faults
If the charger detects a charging fault, you can perform the following tasks to determine the
nature of the fault:
1.
Remove the battery pack and inspect it.
If the battery pack’s casing or pins are damaged,
remove that battery from service.
2.
Inspect the charging bay.
If the charging bay or the its contacts are dirty, unplug the charger
from the AC mains, clean it (following the procedure that we describe in Chapter 4), and then
reinsert the battery pack. If the charger casing or the charging bay is damaged, unplug the
charger from the AC mains, remove it from service, and then test the battery in a clean,
undamaged charger.
3.
If the battery pack and charger are clean and undamaged,
reinsert the battery pack
.
4.
If the
Fault
LED lights after reinserting the battery pack,
remove the battery pack, wait 10
seconds, and then press the battery pack’s Test button.
If the battery’s
Fault
LED lights,
remove the battery pack from service. If the battery pack’s fault light does not light, test the
battery pack in another charger.
Testing Batteries (Manual Procedure)
Performing a battery test in one charger bay will not affect the operation of any other bay (other
than to possibly extend charge time).
The battery test measures the battery’s capacity.
When Should You Test and Recalibrate a Battery?
You should test and recalibrate batteries after a certain number of use (charge/discharge) cycles.
The number of use cycles between battery tests depends on the battery type. For example, all
ZOLL smart lead acid batteries require testing every twenty use cycles or every three months.
The
SurePower Battery Pack
automatically recalibrates when necessary.
Note:
A battery will pass a battery test (the charger lights the
Ready
LED) if the battery can
be charged to at least 60% of its original factory charge capacity. Lead acid batteries
that fail the test may have a significantly reduced operating time when installed in a
defibrillator. You should remove these batteries from service.
