Overview of available options
Safety The housing has to be partially opened to connect the options. Observe the fol-
lowing warnings:
WARNING!
Danger due to work that is not carried out properly.
This can result in severe personal injury and damage to property.
All work associated with connecting the options may only be carried out by
▶
qualified personnel.
If Installation Instructions or User Information exist for the corresponding
▶
option, all warnings and instructions contained therein must be followed.
For all options with electrical connections, a safety inspection must be car-
▶
ried out in accordance with the applicable national and international standards and guidelines after connection work has been carried out.
You can obtain more information about the safety inspection from your au-
▶
thorized Service Partner.
The Service Partner will provide the necessary documents upon request.

Electrolyte circulation
NOTE!
Danger due to electrolyte penetrating from the battery or due to operation
without backpressure.
Damage to the air pump may result.
Always position the battery charger so that it is at least 0.5 m (1 ft. 7.69 in.)
▶
above the battery to be charged.
Always connect the compressed air output on the battery charger to the bat-
▶
tery via the hose connection provided, ensuring it is in perfect condition.
NOTE!
Danger due to non-compliance with the permissible mains voltage tolerance.
Malfunctions and damage to property may result.
For the electrolyte circulation option, a limited mains voltage tolerance of
▶
207 V to 250 V, phase-phase, applies compared to the battery charger: 360 V
to 433 V.
The electrolyte circulation option has an air pump integrated into the battery
charger. This delivers air into the battery via specially designed capillary tubes.
This results in an intensive mixing of the electrolyte. The benefit is less battery
heating, a longer battery life and less water loss during charging.
If an error is detected due to a pump defect - or due to leaks in the connection to
the battery - the status code "Statecode 14" appears on the display. This defect
can be indicated as a common error by means of an external signal lamp, for example.
60
The sequential control of the electrolyte circulation takes place via the battery
charger control unit. Several selection options are available in the configuration
menu for this purpose. Detailed information can be found in the "Additional
functions" section of the "Display" chapter.
These selection options include the factory default programs 1 through 5. The
(1)
(2)
relevant parameters for these programs are shown in the table below, followed
by an explanation.
Program ON 1 OFF 1 Repeat ON 2 OFF 2
1 30 min 25 min 1 x 5 min 25 min
2 3 min 10 min 4 x 3 min 20 min
3 3 min 12 min 1 x 3 min 12 min
4 5 min 10 min 3 x 5 min 20 min
5 2.5 min 7.5 min 1 x 2.5 min 7.5 min
In each of these programs, the solenoid valve picks up for an "ON 1" time and
drops out for an "OFF 1" time. This process repeats as many times as specified
for "Repeat". After this number of repetitions has elapsed, the "ON 2" and "OFF
2" times continue until the end of charging.
Cleaning the air filter insert
Clean the air filter insert for the integrated air pump once a year. If there is a lot
of dust, shorten the cleaning interval accordingly. It is necessary to remove the
air filter insert (2) for cleaning purposes. Remove the air filter (1) by pulling it off
and then reinstall it as follows:

Temperaturecontrolled charging
The external start/stop option prevents spark formation at the charging plug if it
is disconnected during charging. Special contacts inside the charging plug register a disconnection. These contacts are leading in comparison to the main
contacts. An immediate charging stop is triggered. There is therefore no wear on
the main contacts and the level of safety against oxyhydrogen ignition is increased.
device to indicate the state of charge or the operating status of the battery charger. Detailed information on this can be found in the chapter Operating controls
and connections, section "Option range". The working voltage of each external in-
dicator must be 13 V, and the sum of the current drawn by all external indicators
must not exceed 0.5 A.
If the RGB (LED strip) setting is stored in the menu, the connection (15) (yellow)
is not supported. The normal (conventional external indicators) or RGB (LED
strip) setting for the "External lamp" function is explained in the "Additional
functions in configuration mode" section of the Overview of additional functions
chapter.
The temperature-controlled charging option continuously regulates the charging
voltage according to the current battery temperature. This significantly extends
the battery-life, especially when used in cold rooms.

For the relay board option, the input voltage L-N is restricted to a maximum
▶
of 250 V compared to the battery charger.
The optional relay board enables the external evaluation of the battery charger's
operating states and the state of charge of the connected battery. It is also possible to supply one or more external loads with input voltage L-N. This requires an
existing neutral conductor in the electrical network. An explanation of the configuration for the outputs of the relay board can be found in the Operating Instructions for the battery charger: Chapter "Display", section "Additional functions".
