2.5 Safety precautions when handling batteries
WARNING!
!
!
• Batteries contain aggressive and caustic acids. Avoid battery fluid
coming into contact with your body. If your skin does come into
contact with battery fluid, wash the part of your body in question
thoroughly with water.
If you sustain any injuries from acids, contact a doctor immediately.
CAUTION!
• When working on the batteries, do not wear any metal objects such as
watches or rings.
Lead acid batteries can cause short circuits which can cause serious
injuries.
• Danger of explosions!
Never attempt to charge a frozen or defective battery.
Place the battery in a frost-free area and wait until the battery has acclimatised to the ambient temperature. Then start the charging process.
• Wear goggles and protective clothing when you work on batteries.
Do not touch your eyes when you are working on the battery.
• Do not smoke and ensure that no sparks can arise in the vicinity of the
engine or battery.
A
NOTICE!
• Only use rechargeable batteries.
• Prevent any metal parts from falling on the battery. This can cause
sparks or short-circuit the battery and other electrical parts.
• Make sure the polarity is correct when connecting the battery.
• Follow the instructions of the battery manufacturer and those of the
manufacturer of the system or vehicle in which the battery is used.
• If you need to remove the battery, first disconnect the earth
connection. Disconnect all connections and all consumers from the
battery before removing it.

Intended use MCA1215 – MCA2440
3 Intended use
The PerfectCharge MCA360 battery charger can charge or supply a retention
voltage to batteries which are used to generate power in vehicles or on boats.
The MCA charger can be used to continuously charge supply or starter batteries.
This allows the batteries to be charged and to maintain a high charge level:
• 12 V batteries: MCA1215, MCA 1225, MCA1235, MCA 1250, MCA1280
• 24 V batteries: MCA2415, MCA 2425, MCA2440
The MCA battery charger are designed to charge the following battery types:
• Lead starter batteries
• Lead gel batteries
• Absorbed glass mat (AGM) batteries
Never use the devices to charge other battery types (such as NiCd or NiMH).
WARNING! Danger of explosions
!
• Do not charge batteries with a cell short circuit. The oxyhydrogen
they produce can cause explosions.
• Do not charge lead batteries in unventilated rooms. The oxyhydrogen they produce can cause explosions.
• Do not charge nickel cadmium and non-rechargeable batteries with
the charger. The cases of these batteries can burst explosively.

6.3 Battery charging function
The charging characteristics are referred to as modified IU0U characteristics.
1: I phase (bulk)
At the beginning of the charging process, the flat battery is charged with a constant
current (100 % charge current) until the battery voltage reaches the charging voltage. The charging current decreases when the battery has reached this charging
level.
17
EN
Installing the device MCA1215 – MCA2440
2, 3, 4: U0 phase (absorption)
Now the three-stage absorption charging process (U0 phase) begins, where the
duration depends on the battery. The voltage remains constant (U0). In the first
2 minutes, the charging of the battery is determined. Then the main charging phase
begins when the battery is fully charged.
Once the battery is completely charged, or the charging current is below 6 % of the
rated charging current for 15 minutes, the U0 phase has finished.
5: U phase (float)
After the U0 phase, the battery charger switches to conservation charging function
(U phase).
If DC loads are connected, they are powered by the device. Only if the power
required exceeds the capacity of the device is this surplus power provided by the
battery. The battery is then discharged until the device re-enters the I phase and
charges the battery.
6: 12-day conditioning
Every 12 days, the battery charger switches back to phase 1 for 85 min in order to
revive the battery. This prevents any fatigue symptoms such as sulphation.
7 Installing the device
When selecting the installation location, observe the following instructions:
• The device can be installed horizontally or vertically.
•Do not install the device
– In wet or damp environments
– In dusty environments
– In the vicinity of combustible materials
– In areas where there is a danger of explosions.
• The place of installation must be well ventilated. A ventilation system must be
available for installations in small, enclosed spaces. The clearance around the
device must be at least 25 cm.
• The air inlet on the underside and the air outlet on the back of the device must
remain clear.
• For ambient temperatures higher than 40 °C (such as in engine or heating
compartments, or direct sunlight), the heat from the device under load can lead
to reduced output.
18
EN
MCA1215 – MCA2440 Installing the device
• The device must be installed on a level and sufficiently sturdy surface.
• Do not install the device in the same area as the batteries.
• Do not install the device above batteries, because they can emit corrosive
sulphur fumes that will damage the device.
NOTICE!
A

– Red: positive connection
– Black: negative connection
• Do not reverse the polarity. Reversing the polarity can cause damage to the
device.
• Avoid coming into contact with the battery fluid.
• Batteries with a cell short circuit may not be charged, as explosive
gases may form due to overheating of the battery.
➤ Lay the positive cable from the battery charger to the positive terminal of the
battery and connect it.
➤ Lay the negative cable from the battery charger to the negative terminal of the
battery and connect it.
Connecting the 230 V power supply
➤ Plug the 230 V connection cable included in the delivery into the MCA battery
charger‘s “AC INPUT” socket.
➤ Connect the device with the he 230 V connection cable to a 230 V socket which
is protected by a residual current circuit breaker.

8.5 Setting the DIP switches
You can adjust the device using the DIP switch.
S1 is used to set the voltage at which the device switches over from the I phase (bulk)
to the U0 phase (absorption) (also see chapter “Battery charging function” on
page 17). S3 must be set to “OFF”.
S2 is used to set the retention voltage. S3 must be set to “OFF”.
When a battery sensor is connected, the output voltages is adapted to the
temperature for these two functions:
• MCA 12xx: –20 mV/°C
• MCA 24xx: –40 mV/°C
S3 activates the power mode when either S1 or S2, or both, are set to “Off”. In power
mode, the short circuit, overvoltage and overheating protection are controlled by
the internal sensor.
When S1, S2 and S3 are set to “On”, then the function control by external devices is
activated. Among others the type of battery and the charging voltage are set using
the external device in this mode.
S4 regulates the fan function. When S4 is set to “On”, then the fan is switched to
sleep mode (noise-reduced mode). When S4 is set to “Off”, then the fan is not
regulated.
