Special features

Internal independent lithium battery balancer The Charger has an integrated balancer connection for the included Blander board (up to 6-cell lithium) (Optional Universal Balancer Board, No.153043, balancer adapter cable, No. 153044). It isn‘t necessary to connect an external balancer for balance charging.

Balancing individual cells battery charging/discharging
During the process of discharging, the charger can monitor and balance each cell of the battery individually. Error message will be indicated and the process will be ended automatically if the voltage of any single one cell is abnormal.

Adaptable to various type of lithium battery
Charger is adaptable to various types of Lithium batteries, such as Li-ion, Lipoid and the new Life series of batteries.

Maximum safety
Delta-peak sensitivity: the automatic charge termination program based on the principle of the Delta peak voltage detection. When the battery‘s voltage exceeds the threshold, the process will be terminated automatically.

Automatic charging current limit
You can set up the upper limit of the charging current when charging your NiCad or Niamh battery. It is useful for the Niamh battery of low impendence and capacity in the „Auto“ charging mode.

Input power monitoring
To protect the car battery used as DC input power from being damaged, its voltage keeps being monitored. If it drops below the lower limit, the process will be ended automatically.

Temperature monitoring with programmable cut-off
The battery‘s internal chemical reaction will cause the temperature of the battery to rise. If the temperature limit is reached, the process will be terminated.

This function is available by connecting optional temperature probe (Ord. No. 153056), which is not included in our package.

Capacity limit
The charging capacity is always calculated as the charging current multiplied by time. If the charging capacity exceeds the limit, the process will be terminated automatically when you set the maximum value.

Processing time limit
You can also limit the maximum process time to avoid any possible defect.

Cyclic charging/discharging
1 to 5 cyclic and continuous process of charge>discharge or discharge>charge is operable for battery refreshing and Balancing to simulate the battery‘s activity.

Using your charger for the first time
The Charger is fitted with 2 power inputs which gives you the choice of powering the unit from the household mains supply (220 V AC) or via 12 V DC. The 12 V DC can be either a vehicle battery or a stabilised transformer.

Connect the charger to an input of your choice, if using 12 V pay particular attention to the polarity. The red crocodile clip must be connected to the plus pole (+) and the black clip to the minus pole (-). After connection Info menu and then the set-up menu is appears first. If an error is encountered, for example if the input voltage is outside the allowed range of 10-15 V, a message will be displayed and the buzzer will sound. Disconnect the power supply and rectify the fault.

Important notes!

Never connect both power inputs simultaneously as this will destroy the charger!
Make sure to use the correct charging programmed (Lithium, Niamh, Lead etc.) for the
respective battery! Attempting to charge a battery with a non-compatible charging
programmed can cause serious damage to the battery and charger. There is a risk of fire
or explosion! If you are not sure which charging programmed to use for your battery, please contact the manufacturer of the battery or contact our customer service.
The charger is capable of unbalanced charging of multi-cell lithium batteries under controlled conditions when the appropriate charging programmed is selected. Unbalanced charging of multi-cell lithium batteries is at your own risk. We strongly advise against this and recommend that multi-cell lithium batteries are always charged balanced. Unbalanced charging can lead to cell voltage drift which can cause the battery to age more quickly and in the worst case can severely damage the battery. There is a risk of fire or explosion!

Battery packs to be charged or discharged are attached to the charger via 2 color coded banana sockets using a good quality charging cable. Make sure that the plus (+) pole of the battery is connected to the red socket on the charger and that the minus (-) pole of the battery is connected to the black socket of the charger.

When charging or discharging Lithium packs, always use the balancer function of the charger. This will not only provide protection for your cells, but also ensure maximum efficiency and long life. To do so, you must connect both the charging cable and the balancer plug/socket (balancer board included). Not doing this will result in the individual cells not being protected and you will not be able to monitor the individual cell voltage in the display.

Additional information

Your charger is equipped with a powerful internal 80 watt power supply and a socket to connect to an external power supply . When operating on a normal 230V AC power outlet you should making sure the charger ist set to operate within the maximum power of 80 watts . You should set the max. Amp current according to the respective battery , into the range of the allowed maximum Charging rate of the battery and the maximum output of the internal power supply! If you choose charging currents exceeding the 80 watts of the power supply the safety shutdown of the power supply will restart the charger. When connecting to an external power supply to the appropriate power the charger allows higher Loading rates within the technical performance.

In the table you can see the charging currents of various lithium batteries. The basis for calculation of Watts is Volts multiplied by amps.
