Introduction
The SKC Ltd Pocket Pump chargers provide a constant current charging output
specifically for use with the NiCd / NiMH battery charging control system built into the
Pocket Pump.
The Pocket Pump chargers may also be used as mains adaptors to enable long term
operation of the Pocket Pump.
The chargers are supplied with four inter-changeable electrical supply input plugs
suitable for use in the United Kingdom, Europe, USA / Canada and Australia / New
Zealand.
Warnings
These chargers are designed for use specifically with the SKC Pocket Pump models
and are not intended for use with any other SKC or non-SKC products.
These chargers must not be used to charge non-rechargeable batteries.
These chargers are for indoor use only, and must therefore be protected against
exposure to moisture.
Operating temperature range - 0°C to +40°C, 95% RH non-condensing.
Use of a non-SKC charger to charge SKC pump battery packs may cause damage to
the battery pack and / or pump and will void the battery pack and / or pump warranty,
also the intrinsic safety rating of the pump may be invalidated.

charger power supply unit.

The charger LED indicator will illuminate continuously to indicate that the charger
is connected.
4. If the battery pack is fitted to a pump the Pocket Pump will detect that the charger
has been connected and enable the full charging rate. When the Pocket Pump
detects that the battery pack is fully charged, it switches to a trickle charge mode.
The charger LED indicator will remain illuminated continuously in both full and
trickle charging modes.
5. If the battery pack is charged whilst not fitted to a Pocket Pump, charging will
occur at the trickle charge rate and will require an overnight charge to fully charge
the battery pack.
6. It is recommended to disconnect the charger from the battery pack after a period
of 24hours to maintain optimum battery life and performance.
7. The charger can be used as a mains adaptor to enable extended operating
times for the Pocket Pump. Simply connect the charger to the pump battery
pack charging socket and operate the pump as normal. The battery pack will
be maintained in a fully charged state whilst the charger provides the power to
operate the pump.
8. It is recommended to disconnect the charger from the electrical supply when not
in use to save the energy the charger consumes when on standby.
