INDUSTRIAL BATTERY CHARGER OWNER’S MANUAL
INSTALLATION: READ AND FOLLOW ALL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS ON THE FOLLOWING PAGE. All AES SERIES 1 chargers are for
indoor use only. Charging areas must be clean, dry and free from combustible materials, and/or open flames. Charging areas must be
properly ventilated and smoking should never be allowed in or near the charging area. The temperature of the charging room should be
between 32
o
F and 104
o
F.
CAUTION To reduce the risk of fire, use only on circuits provided with branch circuit protection indicated in Table 1 (page 2) in
accordance with the NATIONAL ELECTRIC CODE ANSI/NFPA 70.
MOUNTING: SERIES 1 chargers must be mounted on a surface constructed from con-combustible material, such as stone, brick,
concrete or metal.
INPUT POWER CONNECTION: The INPUT POWER is to be connected via the supplied line cord or to the short 10 AWG “pigtails”
(consult Table 1).
Battery charging products can cause serious injury, death or damage to other equipment and property if the safety rules are not strictly
followed.
SERIES 1 CONTROL FEATURES:
1. Automatic five-second delayed start upon connection of a properly sized battery.
2. Battery voltage is continually monitored.
3. Automatic charge termination 3 hours after the 80% charge point.
4. 80% charge point selectable 2.37 or 2.45 volts per cell.(consult factory representative for 2.45 vpc setting procedure)
5. On / off Equalize switch provided to extend charge 3 additional hours after normal charge termination.
6. Backup timer - 12 hours to the 80% point.
7. Automatic fault shut down: displayed numerically on the 2 digit LED readout:
a. Fault code 1 - Low volts per cell - less than 1.7 vpc
b. Fault code 2 - High volts per cell - greater than 2.7 or 2.80 vpc (set with 80% point)
c. Fault code 3 - Battery disconnected from charger during charge
d. Fault code 4 - Charge time exceeded - backup timer expired
e. Fault code 5 - Low charging current - charging current less than approximately 3 amps
8. Memory retention during AC power loss.
9. Refresh cycle (optional) - 30 minutes every 24 hours. (consult factory representative for setting procedure)
10. Delay start (optional) - 1 hour non-resettable (consult factory representative for setting procedure)
11. Automatic LED test - All LED’s flash alternate red / green upon AC power and battery connection.
12. Fault code 0 - Manual stop button - used to end the charging process
13. Displays:
a. 2-digit LED readout - displays charging current and Fault codes.
b. Equalize LED - on solid when unit is set to equalize, flashes when unit is in equalize charge mode.
c. Shutdown LED - on solid when charger has completed a normal charge cycle, flashes when a fault has occurred.
INPUT VOLTAGE CHANGEOVER: If the charger is capable of more than one input voltage consult the attached schematic and
changeover label inside the charger to reconfigure the charger as required. Be sure to reconfigure both the power transformer taps and
control transformer voltage switch, and replace the line cord and plug assembly with one rated per the NATIONAL ELECTRIC CODE and
Table 1.
OPERATING PROCEDURE: Verify that the charger is wired for the input AC source available. Connect the charger to AC source. The
charger’s 2 LED’s will flash several times and a “0” (zero) will scroll across the LED display.
Connect a properly sized (same cell number and amp-hrs size) battery to the charger. The charger LED’s will again flash several
times. If the charger and battery are matched and all are in good working order, the charger will start charging and display the charging
current on the digital LED display. If the charger and battery are mismatched or either is defective the charger will shutdown and display a
fault code. Consult the charger front panel label for fault codes.
The charger will automatically terminate the charge cycle 3 hours after the 80% point is reached unless the equalize button is
pressed or a fault condition occurs. After a normal charge completion the charger will return to displaying the sequencing zero. The battery
can now be safely unplugged since all charging has stopped. If the charger was still in charge mode, pressing the STOP button will
terminate the charging process and allow the battery to be safely unplugged.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
INSTRUCTIONS IMPORTANTES CONCERNANT LA SECURITE
**************************************************************************************************************
1. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS. THIS MANUAL CONTAINS IMPORTANT SAFETY AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS.
CONSERVER CES INSTRUCTIONS. CE MANUEL CONTIENT DES INSTRUCTIONS IMPORTANTES CONCERNANT LA
SECURITE ET LE FONCTIONNEMENT.
***************************************************************************************************************************
2. WORKING IN THE VICINITY OF A LEAD-ACID BATTERY IS DANGEROUS. BATTERIES GENERATE EXPLOSIVE GASSES
DURING NORMAL BATTERY OPERATION. FOR THIS REASON IT IS OF THE UTMOST IMPORTANCE THAT EACH TIME
BEFORE USING YOUR CHARGER, YOU READ AND FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS PROVIDED EXACTLY.
IL EST DANGEREUX DE TRAVAILLER A PROXIMITE D'UNE BATTERIE AU PLOMB. LES BATTERIES PRODUISENT DES GAS
EXPLOSIFS EN SERVICE NORMAL. AUSSI EST-IL IMPORTANT DE TOUJOURS RELIRE LES INSTRUCTIONS AVANT
D'UTILISER LE CHARGEUR ET DE LES SUIVRE A LA LETTRE.
***************************************************************************************************************************
3. TO REDUCE RISK OF BATTERY EXPLOSION, FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS AND THOSE ON THE BATTERY. POUR
REDUIRE LE RISQUE D'EXPLOSION, LIRE CES INSTRUCTIONS ET CELLES QUI FIGURENT SUR LA BATTERIE.
***************************************************************************************************************************
4. NEVER SMOKE OR ALLOW AN OPEN SPARK OR FLAME IN THE VICINITY OF THE BATTERY OR ENGINE.
NE JAMAIS FUMER PRES DE LA BATTERIE OU DU MOTEUR ET EVITER TOUTE ETINCELLE OU FLAMME NUE A PROXIMITE
DE CES DERNIERS.
***************************************************************************************************************************
5. USE CHARGER FOR CHARGING A LEAD-ACID BATTERY ONLY. IT IS NOT INTENDED TO SUPPLY POWER TO AN EXTRA
LOW-VOLTAGE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM OR TO CHARGE DRY-CELL BATTERIES. CHARGING DRY-CELL BATTERIES MAY
CAUSE THEM TO BURST AND CAUSE INJURY TO PERSONS AND DAMAGE TO PROPERTY.
UTILISER LE CHARGEUR POUR CHARGER UNE BATTERIE AU PLOMB UNIQUEMENT. CE CHARGEUR N'EST PAS CONCU
POUR ALIMENTER UN RESEAU ELECTRIQUE TRES BASSE TENSION NI POUR CHARGER DES PILES SECHES. LE FAIT
D'UTILISER LE CHARGEUR POUR CHARGER DES PILES SECHES POURRAIT ENTRAINER L'ECLATEMENT DES PILES ET
CAUSER DES BLESSURES OU DES COMMAGES.
***************************************************************************************************************************
6. NEVER CHARGE A FROZEN BATTERY.
NE JAMAIS CHARGER UNE BATTERIE GELEE.
***************************************************************************************************************************
7. DO NOT OPERATE IN A CLOSED-IN AREA OR RESTRICT VENTILATION IN ANY WAY.
NE PAS FAIRE FONCTIONNER LE CHARGEUR DANS UN ESPACE CLOS ET/OU NE PAS GENER LA VENTILATION.
***************************************************************************************************************************
8. DANGER: RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK. DO NOT TOUCH UNINSULATED PORTION OF OUTPUT CONNECTOR OR
UNINSULATED BATTERY TERMINAL.
DANGER: RISQUE DE CHOCS ELECTRIQUES. NE PAS TOUCHER LES PARTIES NO ISOLEES DU CONNECTEUR DE SORTIE
OU LES BORNES NON ISOLEES DE L'ACCUMULATEUR.
***************************************************************************************************************************
9. CAUTION: DISCONNECT SUPPLY BEFORE CHANGING FUSE.
ATTENTION: COUPER L'ALIMENTATION AVANT DE REMPLACER LES FUSIBLES.
