Features

Power supply mode

The charger can be set to operate as a DC power supply. In this mode, the charger functions as a constant voltage source:

• An adjustable output voltage of 8.0 to 15.9 V (12 V type) resp. 16.0 to 31.8 Volt (24 V type)
• A maximum output current of 60A (12 V type) resp. 30A (24 V type).

Temperature compensation (dV/dT)

The temperature sensor should be connected to the plus or negative pole of the battery. The temperature compensation is a fixed setting, see table and fig 7, and applies to all charge states.

The temperature sensor must be installed when:

• ambient temperature of the battery is expected to regularly be lower than 15 °C or to regularly exceed 30 °C
• charge current exceeds 15 A per 100 Ah battery capacity

Temperature compensation is not required for Li-Ion batteries.

Power Control – maximum use of limited shore current

A maximum mains current can be set in order to avoid interruption of an external fuse in the mains supply.

Models
