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.

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

Temperaturecontrolled charging

Relay board

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.

WARNING!

Danger when using the relay board for safety-critical functions.

This can result in severe personal injury and damage to property.

Do not use the relay board for safety-critical functions.

▶

NOTE!

Danger due to non-compliance with the permissible mains voltage tolerance.

Malfunctions and damage to property may result.

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 con-

figuration for the outputs of the relay board can be found in the Operating Instructions for the battery charger: Chapter "Display", section "Additional functions".

Detailed information on the relay board can be found in the instructions supplied with the relay board option.

Enclosed is an overview of options directly related to the relay board. These relay board-specific options are controlled via the outputs of the relay board:

Aquamatic The Aquamatic control includes the control of a solenoid valve for automated

water refilling at the battery to be charged.

Standard setting

At the beginning of the recharging phase, the solenoid valve picks up for 12

seconds, then the solenoid valve drops out for 4 seconds. This cycle repeats 26 times.

USER setting

Adjustable "ON" time (solenoid valve picks up) after the end of the main

charging phase.

Charging The "Charging" option is suitable for controlling a signal lamp, for example. While

charging is in progress, the corresponding relay automatically picks up.

Charge 50 % In the same way as the "Main Charge Finished" function, the corresponding relay

switches as soon as the battery is charged to 50%.

Charge 80 % In the same way as the "Main Charge Finished" function, the corresponding relay

switches as soon as the battery is charged to 80%.

Charge not complete

The "Charge not complete" option is suitable for controlling an acoustic signal generator, for example. If the battery is disconnected from the battery charger

before the charging process is completed, the relay switches for an adjustable time of 1 to 10 seconds.

Charge Finish The "Charge Finish" option is suitable for controlling a signal lamp, for example.

When the configured charging characteristic is complete, the corresponding relay automatically picks up.

Signal Lamp Alternatively to the charging lights, it is possible to connect one or more suitable

The "Main Charge Finished" option is suitable for controlling a signal lamp, for example. At the end of the main charging phase, the corresponding relay automatically picks up.

The "Cumulative Error" option is suitable for controlling a signal lamp, for example. Every time an error is detected, the corresponding relay automatically picks up.

In the same way as the "Cumulative Error" function, the corresponding relay picks up as soon as an error or warning is present.

lamps to the relay board to indicate the state of charge or the operating status of the battery charger. The lamps can be designed for a voltage of up to 30 V DC or up to 250 V AC on a grid that is grounded at the neutral point.

If the lamps are ﬂoating, the switching current must not exceed 4 A. A lamp that is controlled via the 230 V supply relay may be operated at an output current of max. 1 A.

Immobiliser If the battery charger is installed in a vehicle as an on-board solution, the option-

al immobilizer device prevents unintentional start-up of the vehicle during the charging process. This protects the vehicle, the battery and the charging cables from damage.

As soon as the vehicle is connected to the grid, the corresponding relay picks up and blocks the ignition lock signal, for example. Another example is the control of a suitable signal lamp as a visual representation that charging is in progress.

Battery Cold After the time preset in the menu has elapsed, the corresponding relay automat-

ically switches.

External air pump (electrolyte circulation)

This option enables the control of an external air pump via relay contact, in the context of the "Air pump" option.

LED strip The LED strip serves as a status indicator and lights up in the corresponding col-

ors in the same way as the display elements of the control panel. An LED strip including diffuser is installed in the gap between the front wall of the housing and the upper part of the housing.

Air filter In dusty environments, the air filter prevents contamination of the inside of the
