Dangers from
mains current
and charging current
Anyone working with battery chargers exposes themselves to numerous dangers, e.g.:
- Risk of electrocution from mains current and charging current.
- Hazardous electromagnetic fields, which can risk the lives of those using cardiac
pacemakers.
An electric shock can be fatal. Every electric shock is potentially life threatening. To avoid
electric shocks while using the charger:
- Do not touch any live parts inside or on the outside of the charger.
- Under no circumstances touch the battery poles.
- Do not short-circuit the charging cable or charging terminals.
All cables and leads must be secured, undamaged, insulated and adequately dimensioned. Loose connections, scorched, damaged or inadequately dimensioned cables and
leads must be immediately repaired by authorised personnel.
EN
Danger due to
acid, gases and
vapours
Batteries contain acid which is harmful to the eyes and skin. During charging, gases and
vapours are released that may be harmful to health and are highly explosive in certain
circumstances.
Only use the charger in well-ventilated areas to prevent the accumulation of explosive
gases. Battery rooms are not deemed to be hazardous areas provided that a concentration of hydrogen of less than 4% can be guaranteed by the use of natural or forced ventilation.
Maintain a distance of at least 0.5 m (19.69 in.) between the battery and charger during
the charging procedure. Possible sources of ignition such as fire and naked flames must
be kept away from the battery.
The battery connection (e.g. charging terminals) must not be disconnected for any
reason during charging.
Do not inhale any of the gases and vapours released under any circumstances - Make
sure the area is well ventilated.
To prevent short circuits, do not place any tools or conductive metals on the battery.
Battery acid must not get into the eyes or onto the skin or clothes. Wear protective
goggles and suitable protective clothing. Rinse any acid splashes thoroughly with clean
water and seek medical advice if necessary.
7
General information regarding the
handling of batteries
- Protect batteries from dirt and mechanical damage.
- Store charged batteries in a cool place. Self discharge is kept to a minimum at
approx. +2 °C (35.6 °F).
- Carry out a visual inspection at least once a week or as often as specified by the
battery manufacturer to ensure that the acid (electrolyte) level in the battery is at the
max. mark.
- If any of the following occur, do not start the device (or stop immediately if already in
use) and have the battery checked by an authorised workshop:
- uneven acid levels and/or high water consumption in individual cells caused by
a possible fault.
- overheating of the battery above 55 °C (131 °F).
Protecting yourself and others
Safety measures
in normal operation
While the charger is in operation, keep all persons, especially children, out of the working
area. If, however, there are people in the vicinity,
- warn them about all the dangers (hazardous acids and gases, danger from mains
and charging current, etc.),
- provide suitable protective equipment.
Before leaving the work area, ensure that people or property cannot come to any harm in
your absence.
Chargers with a ground conductor must only be operated on a mains supply with a
ground conductor and a socket with a ground conductor contact. If the charger is operated on a mains supply without a ground conductor or in a socket without a ground conductor contact, this will be deemed gross negligence. The manufacturer shall not be held
liable for any damage arising from such usage.
Only operate the charger in accordance with the degree of protection shown on the rating plate.
Under no circumstances operate the charger if there is any evidence of damage.
Arrange for the mains cable to be checked regularly by a qualified electrician to ensure
the ground conductor is functioning properly.
Any safety devices and parts that are not functioning properly or are in imperfect condition must be repaired by a qualified technician before switching on the charger.

Safety In order to connect optional components, it may be necessary to open the housing. The
following warning notices must be obeyed:
WARNING!
Danger due to work that has been carried out improperly.
This can result in serious injury and damage to property.
All work involved with connecting optional components must only be carried out by
▶
qualified specialist technicians.
If Installation Instructions or User Information is available for the optional component
▶
concerned, all warning notices and instructions therein must be obeyed.
In the case of all optional components with electrical connections, once the connec-
▶
tion work is complete, a safety inspection must be carried out in accordance with relevant national and international standards and directives.
Further details on safety inspections can be obtained from your authorised service
▶
centre.
They will provide you with any documents you may require on request.
▶
WARNING!
Electrolyte circulation 3 kW
Danger from machines falling or toppling over.
This can result in serious injury and damage to property.
Due to its weight, the device must be secured using suitable fittings to prevent it
▶
from toppling or falling over.
The wall and floor brackets provided by the manufacturer must be used.
▶
NOTE!
Danger due to the ingress of electrolyte from the battery or due to operation
without any back pressure.
This may result in damage to the air pump.
Always set up the charger at least 0.5 m (1 ft. 7.69 in.) above the battery to be
▶
charged.
Always use an undamaged connecting hose provided specifically for this purpose to
▶
connect the charger's compressed air outlet to the battery.
NOTE!
Danger due to non-observance of the permissible mains voltage tolerance.
This can cause malfunctions and damage.
For the electrolyte circulation option, a restricted mains voltage tolerance vis-à-vis
▶
the charger of 207 V to 250 V applies.
54
The electrolyte circulation option introduces air into the battery through capillary tubes
that are provided specifically for this purpose. This allows intensive mixing of the electrolyte to take place. The benefit is the reduced heating of the battery, and consequently
longer battery-life, plus reduced water loss during charging.
If a pump fault or leaks in the connection with the battery result in a fault being detected,
then the status code "Statecode 14" will appear on the display. One way in which this
fault can be indicated is by using an external indicator lamp to show a common error.
Weight of the electrolyte circulation set:
Air-Puls + air hose kit

Electrolyte circulation air filter insert
The air filter insert for the integrated air pump should be cleaned once a year. In dusty
environments, the cleaning interval should be shortened accordingly. The air filter insert
must be removed for cleaning. Remove the air filter by levering it out with a slotted
screwdriver; then refit it as follows:
NOTE!
Danger from using the air filter with unsuitable chargers.
This can result in damage to property.
Only use the air filter with the chargers provided by the manufacturer for this pur-

External start/
stop
The external start/stop option prevents sparking if the charging plug is disconnected during charging. Special contacts inside the charging plug register a separation from the
charging socket. These are leading contacts in relation to the main contacts. This triggers an immediate stop to charging. As a result there is no wear to the main contacts,
and this arrangement safeguards more effectively against an oxyhydrogen explosion.
Temperature-controlled charging
The temperature-controlled charging option always adjusts the charging voltage according to the current temperature of the battery. This results in considerably longer batterylife, especially where batteries are used in cold stores.
LED strip The LED strip acts as a status indicator and lights up in the same colours as the display
elements on the control panel. An LED strip including a diffuser is installed in the gap
between the front wall and upper part of the housing.
Air filter In dusty environments, the air filter prevents the inside of the device from becoming dirty.
This avoids a possible reduction in power and other problems. Detailed information can
be found in the corresponding User Information.
Wall and floor
bracket
Cleaning interval as required (manufacturer's recommendation: monthly)
The robust wall and floor bracket with integrated cable holder ensures safe installation at
the place of use. Detailed information and diagrams can be found in under "Wall and
floor bracket" in the "General information" chapter.
"Mobile" kit A carrying strap makes it easier to move the device.
