2. General Information

This microprocessor based IP-65 Lead Acid Battery Charger was especially developed for the outdoor use and for situations

where water may be present. It can be used to charge any lead-based battery – including GEL, AGM, WET and CA. With the 5-

step charging program the battery will be charged safely in a fully automatic mode. The output of the charger is electronically

protected against short circuit, reverse polarity connection. The charger is able to recover deep-discharged batteries.

Coloured LED’s on the top case are used to indicate charging status, errors, and selected mode of charging. Additional it includes

a power supply mode.

The chosen battery type could be changed on the control panel. The previously selected mode will be saved as standard setting.
