Battery Charger with Automatic Power Management
A high efficiency 100 amp multi-stage battery charger allows fully automatic charging of flooded and gel
lead acid battery banks. The efficient 0.85PF, compared to typical 0.59PF on triac type chargers, allows
full charger output from a 30 amp aux AC source. The system’s Bulk - Absorption - Float charge cycle
quickly charges and maintains the charge on the battery bank. An Equalization charge cycle is provided
for flooded lead acid battery maintenance.
Automatic Power Management (APM) monitors the Aux AC Input amps and will reduce the battery
charger output as needed to keep the Aux AC Input amps below the preset APM Limit.
•
Automatic AC Power Transfer Switch with Solar Mode
An automatic AC transfer switch provides system output power sourced from the Aux AC Input (generator
or utility) or sourced from the battery, via the inverter. Solar Mode allows the inverter to operate on battery
power while shore power is present.
•
Gen Start
The Gen Start feature provides a start/stop signal to control a generator used for recharging the batteries.
The start/stop signal consists of a contact closure to start the generator based on battery voltage and stop
the generator based on battery charging amps.
•
System Control
The TruSine contains a System ON/OFF Switch to turn the system ON and OFF. A control
microprocessor provides a variety of protection interlocks, system fault detection/reporting/recovery,
storage of system data parameters, and high speed data communications to the optional TSR-2 Remote
Control Panel. System protection functions include over load, over temperature, and high and low battery
voltage. Use the ON/OFF Switch to reset the system after shutdown for a system fault. The optional TSR-
2 Remote Control Panel provides a system status display and allows detailed control of individual system
functions.
•
TSR-2 TruSine Remote Control Panel (Optional)
The optional TSR-2 Remote Control Panel / Programming Panel is an
operator interface which connects to the TruSine Inverter/Charger via a 6-
conductor data bus and allows system operation near the inverter or from
remote areas. Multiple TSR-2 Remotes may be connected for optimum
flexibility. The TSR-2 contains an alphanumeric LCD display and functional
keypad making it easy to use. System status messages are displayed, faults
are reported, system functions may be enabled/disabled or turned ON/OFF,
system setpoints may be examined and changed.
Figure 2: TSR-1 and TSR-2 Control Panels
Earlier production TSR Remotes, the TSR-1, are identical to the TSR-2 except contain early software used
with TruSine inverter/charger model TSC24-4000D. The TSR-1 will work with TruSine 4500 models but cannot
access the GenStart and other new features of the TruSine 4500. The TSR-1 may be upgraded to TSR-2
status by changing software to part number A88769-A or newer. TSR-2 software is displayed upon startup and
also is identified in the General Information Menu step 52. TSR-1 software is identified in the System Info
menu.
