2. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS AND WARNINGS
This manual includes instructions and suggestions for the users of Energic Plus MVM battery chargers. The code and the version of this manual are written on the bottom of each page. If you need more copies please specify Code and Version. Before starting to use your MVM battery charger, please read these instructions carefully.
GENERAL
Battery charging products can cause serious injury or death, or damage to other equipment or property, if the operator does not strictly observe all safety rules and take precautionary actions. Safe practices must be learned through study and training before using this equipment. Only qualified personnel should install, use, or service this equipment.
SHOCK PREVENTION
Bare conductors, or terminals in the output circuit, or ungrounded, electrically-live equipments can fatally shock a person. To protect against shock, have competent electrician verify that the equipment is adequately grounded and learn what terminals and parts are electrically HOT.
The body’s electrical resistance is decreased when wet, permitting dangerous current to flow through the body. Do not work in damp area without being extremely careful. Stand on dry rubber mat or dry wood and use insulating gloves when dampness or sweat cannot be avoided. Keep clothing dry.
INSTALLATION AND GROUNDING - A power disconnect switch must be located at the equipment. Check the data label for voltage and phase requirements. If only 3-phase power is available, connect single-phase equipment to ONLY TWO WIRES of the 3-phase line. DO NOT CONNECT the equipment grounding conductor to the third live wire of the 3-phase line as this makes the equipment frame electrically HOT, which can cause a fatal shock. If a grounding conductor is part of the power supply cable, be sure to connect it to a properly grounded switch box or building ground. If not part of the supply cable, use a separate grounding conductor. Don’t remove a ground prong from any plug. Use correct mating receptacles. Check ground for electrical continuity before using equipment. The grounding conductor must be of a size equal to or larger than the size of the line conductors.
CHARGING LEADS – Inspect leads often for damage to the insulation. Replace or repair cracked or worn leads immediately. Use leads having sufficient capacity to carry the operating current without overheating.
BATTERY TERMINALS – Do not touch battery terminals while equipment is operating.
SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE – Shut OFF all power at the disconnect switch or line breaker BEFORE inspecting, adjusting, or servicing the equipment. Lock switch OPEN (or remove line fuses) so that the power cannot be turned ON accidentally. Disconnect power to equipment if it is to be left unattended or out of service. Disconnect battery from charger. Measure voltage on capacitors and, if there is any voltage reading, wait 5 minutes before to proceed.
