IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Please read this manual and follow the instructions carefully before using the charger.

WARNING

The battery charger is designed to charge 12V Lead Acid batteries (LA) or Lithium (LiFePO4) (LFP) battery from 4Ah to 60Ah and maintain batteries up to 120Ah.
We always recommend that you check the Battery Manufacturers specifications before using this charger.
Explosive gases may escape from the battery during charging. Provide ventilation to prevent flames and sparks.
For indoor use. Do not expose charger to rain, snow or liquids.
Battery acid is corrosive. Rinse immediately with water if acid comes into contact with skin or eyes.
Never charge a frozen battery.
Never charge a damaged battery.
Never place the charger on the battery while charging.
Be extra cautious to reduce risk of dropping a metal tool onto battery. It might spark or short-circuit battery or other electrical part that may cause explosion.
When working with a Lead Acid battery, remove personal metal items such as rings, bracelets, necklaces, watches…
NEVER smoke or allow a spark or flame in vicinity of battery or engine.
Do not charge non-rechargeable batteries.
In order to reduce risk of electric shock, unplug charger from AC outlet before doing any.
maintenance or cleaning. Turn off controls will reduce risk.
The kit is not supposed to be used by children or by people who are not able to understand the manual, unless they are supervised by a responsible person who ensures the proper use of the kit.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

STEP 1: Pre-Charge Check & Electrolyte Level Check

Check the Battery Electrolyte level for Lead Acid battery (not required on sealed & maintenance-free batteries). If necessary, remove the vent caps and add distilled water so the levels are halfway between the upper and lower fill lines.

STEP 2: Connecting the Battery Charger to your Battery

Connect the Red lead from the charger to the positive (+) battery terminal.
Connect the Black lead from the charger to the negative (-) battery terminal.

STEP 3: Connect the Battery Charger to Mains Power

Connect the battery charger to a Mains Powered socket.
Turn on the Mains Power.

Once the connection instructions have been followed, AC power is presented, power White LED ON. The charger will begin charging automatically, the “Charging” Blue LED is ON. When full charge is reached, the “Maintaining” “Full” Green LED will be ON. The Maintaining Float Mode allows the charger to effectively be left connected to your batteries, over the course of a season for Lead acid batteries, without overcharging your batteries and maintains your battery’s full charge, for a LiFePo4 battery, it will automatically terminate the charge if the battery fully charged and Green LED will be ON.

STEP 4: Disconnecting the Battery Charger from Battery

The AC Power Socket from the outlet; Remove the Black lead and then the Red lead. Check electrolyte levels if possible. (As they may need topping up with distilled water after charging).

THE CHARGING PROCESS

The battery charger provides the multiple charging phases subjected to the Lead acid battery sensed or LiFePO4 battery sensed.

Smart re-activation

The battery charger will wake up the “dead” LiFePO4 battery where the under-voltage protection has been triggered.

Soft start

In this phase rising voltage and a maximum of 50% of bulk phase current is applied to the battery to start the charging cycle.

Bulk stage

In this phase rising voltage and maximum output current is applied to the battery.

Analysis-1 Stage

In this phase the battery charger tests the battery in order to detect bad cells (only for Lead acid batteries). For abnormal cell detection results please refer to the troubleshooting section.

Absorption stage

In this phase a constant voltage and tapering current is applied to the battery to ensure it reaches 85% state of charge.

Analysis- 2 Stage

In this phase the charger tests the battery again in order to detect bad cells and high levels of sulphation (only for Lead acid batteries).

Float and Maintenance

Compatible only with Lead Acid batteries this stage is used for long term battery maintenance.

Float returns to Bulk charging

When battery voltage is dropped below 12.5v.

Lithium (LiFePo4) Recharge phase

If the battery voltage falls below 12.8V; the battery charger will automatically return to Bulk phase.

CHARGE CURVE

TROUBLESHOOTING

Types of Problems| Indication| Possible Causes| Suggested Solution
---|---|---|---
Charger does not work?| No Indicator lights on.|

– No AC power.

|

Check AC connections and make sure PowerPoint is switched ON.

Charger has no DC output?

| ****

Fault LED is On.

|

Output is short circuited
Reverse polarity connection to Battery.

|

Check DC connection between charger and battery and make sure they are not short-circuiting.
Check that the crocodile clips haven’t fallen off the battery.
Check that the crocodile clips / ring terminals are connected to the correct polarity.

Long charging time, Full light does not come on?| ****

The fault LED is ON.

|

Battery capacity too large
The battery is defective.

|

Check the charger specification matches the battery capacity.

Long charging time, Full light does not come on?| Fault LED is Flash.|

Battery cells internal shorted, battery heavily sulphated.

|

Battery cannot be charged and must be replaced.

MAINTENANCE

The battery charger is maintenance free. If the power cord is damaged, the charger must be left to the reseller for maintenance. The case should be cleaned occasionally. The battery charger should be disconnected from the power while cleaning.
