IMPORTANT & SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS — This manual contains important safety and operating instructions for the battery charger. ALL BATTERY CHARGERS 1. CAUTION — To reduce risk of injury, charge only lead acid or sealed gel cell type rechargeable batteries. Other types of batteries may burst causing personal injury and damage. 2. Do not expose battery charger to rain or snow. 3.
v. NEVER smoke or allow a spark or flame in vicinity of battery or engine. vi. Be extra cautious to reduce risk of dropping a metal tool onto battery. It might spark or short-circuit battery or other electrical part that may cause explosion. vii. Remove personal metal items such as rings, bracelets, necklaces, and watches when working with a lead-acid battery. A lead-acid battery can produce a short-circuit current high enough to weld a ring or the like to metal, causing a severe burn. viii.
Examples of devices considered to be life support devices are neonatal oxygen analyzers, nerve stimulators (whether used for anesthesia, pain relief, or other purposes), autotransfusion devices, blood pumps, defibrillators, arrhythmia detectors and alarms, pacemakers, hemodialysis systems, peritoneal dialysis systems, neonatal ventilator incubators, ventilators for both adults and infants, anesthesia ventilators, and infusion pumps as well as any other devices designated as “critical” by the U.S. FDA.

Designed and manufactured by: ANALYTIC SYSTEMS WARE (1993) LTD. 8128 River Way Delta, BC V4G 1K5 Canada www.analyticsystems.com p. 604.946.9981 f. 604.946.9983 tf. 800.668.3884 US/Canada analyticinfo@analyticsystems.com Revised July 2014 Installation OUTPUT TERMINAL OUTPUT FUSE TO REMOTE INPUT FUSE INPUT POWER ON/OFF Allow at least 1 inch of clearance all around the case for cooling. The best mounting configuration is to mount the unit on a vertical surface oriented as shown.
To ensure spark free connections the power switch must be in the OFF position prior to making the connections to the battery bank(s). The unit may be hooked to 1, 2 or 3 battery banks. If you are hooking up 2 or 3 battery banks keep in mind that they MUST share a common ground! If you are hooking up 3 battery banks, hook them up as is shown below.
2 or 3 Stage Charging This charger features user selectable 2 or 3 stage charging. The charging profile is selected by moving the slide switch on the front panel up to 3 stage or down for 2 stage charging. Maintenance Bulk (Constant Current) (Constant Volts) Volts 100% 75% 50% 25% Amps 0% Time Two Stage Charger A two-stage charger provides a constant current until the battery reaches its rated capacity and then switches to a “float” voltage.
Troubleshooting If the red OVERTEMP LED and the audible alarm come on, the unit has overheated, and it will shut down until it cools off sufficiently. You may not have allowed sufficient space around the unit for cooling, or there may be too many devices connected to the output of the unit. Either reduce the number of devices connected to the unit, or reposition the unit for better cooling. If necessary, direct a stream of moving air over the unit.
Dry Contact Relay The charger is fitted with a dry contact relay to indicate output failure to a monitoring system. To use the dry contact output fail relay you must connect a 9-pin D connector to the unit. You must use pins one and six as is indicated on the remote connector diagram. The relay is factory preset to fail in the closed position when the low output LED and buzzer come on.
Remote Control Option A remote control panel may be connected to the inverter using a 9-pin D-connector, which attaches to the battery charger. The remote control panel and D connector are part of the remote control option. The remote control panel allows the unit to be operated remotely as well as duplicating all the diagnostic indicators and audible alarm. IMPORTANT: This remote is to be used only on Battery Chargers manufactured by Analytic Systems.
The charger will charge the battery at approximately 10% its normal rate (i.e. 4 amps for a 40 amp charger) until the battery reaches a maximum voltage of 15.5 volts (31.0 volts for a 24V battery, etc.) and then reduce the current as necessary to maintain the battery at that voltage. Three hours after the Equalize cycle begins, the charger will return to the float mode where the battery can be maintained indefinitely.
