GETTING STARTED 1. Connect the charger’s mains plug to a power socket. 2. Connect the charger’s red cable clamp to the battery’s positive terminal post (+), and the black cable clamp to the battery’s negative terminal post (-). 13,7V Supply Standard AGM/GEL 1-19Ah 20-59Ah 13,7V Supply 20-59Ah 60-150Ah AGM/GEL 1-19Ah Standard 3. Select the correct mode, battery size (Ah) and battery technology (AGM/GEL or standard battery), or 13.7 V Supply. MP 60-150Ah 4.
User guide (Read through the instructions before use): 1. Read the safety notes and take the stated precautions. 2. Connect the charger’s mains plug to a power socket. The lamp on the front of the charger shine. 3. Connect the charger’s red cable clamp to the battery’s positive terminal post (+), and the black cable clamp to the battery’s negative terminal post (-). When the charger is correctly connected, the yellow LED (green LED during 13.7 V Supply) flashes for around 3 seconds.
Safety notes • The charger has been constructed to charge 12 V lead acid batteries or to act as a power supply for 12 V equipment. Do not use the charger for other purposes. • Do not use the charger if its cables, terminal clamps or casing are damaged. • Batteries emit explosive gases while they are charging. It is, therefore, important to ensure good ventilation and avoid sparks and naked flames in the vicinity of the battery. • Use protective eyewear when working with batteries.
Description of functions The charger is fully automatic and programmed for advanced charging of lead-acid batteries between 1 and 150 Ah. The integrated safety functions that are intended to limit overcharging could interrupt the charge process when charging larger batteries. This applies especially when charging batteries that are larger than approx. 180 Ah. The unit can be used both as a battery charger and power supply. The power supply is activated by selecting 13.
type of battery, the charger is equipped with a cut-out function that interrupts charging, at the same time as the fault is shown by the LED lighting constantly red. NOTE: This fault alarm can be triggered during charging of batteries that have capacities above the recommended battery size, or in connection with other equipment drawing current (parallel loads) being connected to the battery during charging.
Probable cause 2: Parallel load. If a piece of equipment that drains current is connected to the battery, there is a risk that the capacity of the charger is not sufficient to charge the battery within the time constraints that are built into the charger for safety reasons. Action: If possible, disconnect the parallel load and repeat charging, or purchase a larger charger suitable for both charge and drain. Probable cause 3: Battery is too large.
