INTRODUCTION

BATTERY CHARGER PLUS

Thank you for purchasing your new Snap-on Battery

Charger Plus.

The EEBC500B-INT is an advanced, full featured battery

charger with additional functions that make it a battery

service system.

The charger utilizes a microprocessor, controlling both

the voltage and current going to the battery, providing

maximum power and the precise control needed to

charge the various types of 6V (3 cell) and 12V (6 cell)

batteries on the market today, including LiFePO

, AGM,

Sealed Lead-Acid, Deep-Cycle, Spiral-Cell and Standard

Automotive batteries, reducing charge times while

maximizing battery life.

The EEBC500B-INT also has the ability to boost the

voltage on 24V (12 cell) batteries. (The EEBC500B-INT

does not fully charge 24V batteries).

The microprocessor is the heart of the multistage

charging algorithm built into the EEBC500B-INT.

Microprocessor-based charging technology achieves

an extremely versatile charging algorithm, and provides

a user-friendly set of controls and an easy-to-read

digital display (voltage, % of charge, alternator % of

performance). The versatility allows many different

battery types to be charged.

Flash Reprogramming Power Supply

Provides a consistent power at the OEM specied

voltage (user entered) to allow for uninterrupted ash

reprogramming of vehicle’s computers or to retain vehicle

system settings.

When reprogramming, the power supplied to the vehicle

module must not drop below OEM specied voltage.

Some reprogramming operations with the key-on will turn

on cooling fans, fuel pumps, and other components that

will cause the battery to drain faster than normal. Instead

of pulling fuses to prevent the battery drain, it is easier

and more practical to have the vehicle connected to a

constant voltage power supply. During reprogramming,

there is a risk of having the operation fail if the voltage

falls below the proper operating voltage. Sometimes a

failed operation can be recovered, but there is a chance

that failed reprogramming could ruin the control module.

Features

• 10-in. (25.4 cm) Diameter Foam-Filled Wheels –

allow easy movement around the shop and lot.

• Digital Display – % of Charge – Voltage – Alternator

Performance – shows precise data.

• Covered tool storage compartment –

convenient space for battery service tools.

• Clamp storage posts and built-in cable wraps –

keep clamps and cables organized.

• Heavy-duty clamps – provide secure connections

and minimal current losses.

• 90-in. (2.28 m) output cables – for extended reach in

vehicles with hard-to-reach batteries.

• 9 foot (3 meter) AC power cord – for extended reach.

• Storage Area for Booster Packs or Auxiliary 12V

batteries in the convenient bottom tray.

minutes before cranking the engine.

6. Wait three minutes before attempting to start again.

The digital display will indicate the time remaining

before cranking again and the ENGINE START LED

will blink.

NOTE: During this cool down period, the charger is

supplying the battery with a charge of up to 10A.

7. When the digital display times down to 0 and reads

, the Engine Start LED has stopped blinking and

the Charging LED is on, you are ready to crank

the vehicle again. You have three minutes to perform

an engine start (Pressing the Start/Stop button is

NOT REQUIRED.)

8. If the engine still does not start, allow the charger

to charge the battery for ve more minutes before

cranking it again.

9. After the engine starts, unplug the charger power

cord from the wall outlet, before disconnecting from

the battery.

If the engine does turn over, but never starts, there is

not a problem with the starting system; there is a problem

somewhere else with the vehicle. STOP cranking the

engine until the other problem has been diagnosed and

corrected.

FLASH REPROGRAMMING

Not for use with LiFePO

batteries.

NOTE: Do not attempt to Flash Reprogram a vehicle

that has a discharged or defective battery. Make sure

that the vehicle battery is in good condition and FULLY

CHARGED before proceeding.

The EEBC500B-INT is designed to supply up to 100 amps

in “Flash Reprogram” mode.

Some newer vehicles may require more than 100 amps

while ash reprogramming the ECU. Consult the vehicle

manufacturer’s specications to determine the required

amperage. The EEBC500B-INT “Flash Reprogram” mode

cannot be used on vehicles that require more than 100 amps,

or damage to the ECU and/or vehicle’s electrical system

may occur. Failure to follow these instructions may also

damage the service center’s ash reprogram equipment.

1. Set BATTERY VOLTAGE to FLASH REPROGRAMMING.

2. Use “UP” and “DOWN” buttons to adjust the voltage

needed for the vehicle being programmed (refer to

OEM specications). Voltage selected is shown on

the digital display. The unit has a voltage range of

13.0 to 14.8, with a default of 14.2.

NOTE: When the VOLTS LED stops blinking, the

display shows the selected voltage.

3. Press START/STOP to activate the output.

NOTE: During this time, the other buttons will not

work until you turn off the output. When the display

shows  no buttons will work for ve seconds, then

it automatically goes back to the default state.

13. CALCULATING CHARGE TIMES

The Chart Method

Use the following table to more accurately determine the

time it will take to bring a battery to full charge.

First, identify where your battery ts into the chart.

• Small batteries – motorcycle, garden tractor, etc. –

are usually rated in Ampere hours (Ah).

For example: 6, 12, 32 Ah, etc.

• Batteries in cars and smaller trucks are usually rated

in Reserve Capacity (RC), Cold-Cranking Amps

(CCA), or both.

• Marine or deep-cycle batteries are usually rated in

Reserve Capacity (RC).

• NR means that the charger setting is NOT

RECOMMENDED.

Find your battery rating on the chart below and note

the charge time given for each charger setting. The

times given are for batteries with a 50-percent charge

prior to recharging. Add more time for severely discharged

batteries.

550-1000 CCA 85-190 RC 9¼-17½ 2-3½ 40-70 min.

The Hydrometer or Electronic Method

To nd the time needed to fully charge your battery,

determine the battery’s charge level with a hydrometer or

electronic Percent-of-Charge Tester. The following table

will help you convert hydrometer readings to percent of

charge values.

SPECIFIC

GRAVITY

PERCENT OF

1.265 100% 0%

1.225 75% 25%

1.155 25% 75%

1.120 0% 100%

When you know the percent of charge and the

Amp hour (Ah) rating of your battery, you can calculate

the approximate time needed to bring your battery to a full

charge.

To convert Reserve Capacity to Amp hours, divide

Reserve Capacity by 2, and add 16:

Example:

Amp hour Rating = Reserve Capacity + 16

NOTE: The reserve Capacity can be obtained from the

battery specication sheet or the owner’s manual.

To calculate time needed for a charge:

• Find the percent charge needed. (A battery at 50%

charge that will be charged to 100% needs another

50% [.50]).

• Multiply the Amp Hour rating by the charge needed

(.50) and divide by the charger setting (4, 15, or

60 amps).

• Multiply the results by 1.25 and you will have the total

time needed, in hours, to bring the battery to

full charge.

• Add one additional hour for a deep-cycle battery.

Example:

Amp hour Rating x % of charge needed x 1.25 = hours of charge

Charger Setting

100 (Ah Rating) x .50 (charge needed) x 1.25 = 4.17 hours

15 (Charger Setting)

100 x .50 x1.25 = 4.17

You would need to charge your 100-Ampere hour Battery

for a little more than three hours at the 15-Amp charge

rate using the above example.

NOTE: The maximum recommended battery capacity is

155 Ah.

18. REPLACING THE CLAMP CABLES

1. Remove the two screws on the cover plate, and tilt it

out of the slots on the bottom.

2. Remove the screws on the terminals using a 6 mm

hex wrench. These will be tight (torque 45-50 in-lbs.),

so you will probably need to use the long end. Take

care when removing the screws to prevent stripping

the hole. To prevent damage, it is recommended you

use an open ended wrench to keep the terminal

from spinning.

3. The strain reliefs are held in by three spring tabs.

While pulling on the cable (opposite side of strain

relief), push on the bottom tab to get it out rst, then

squeeze the two side tabs together to remove the

strain relief from the hole.

4. Follow these steps in reverse to assemble the

new cable.

EEBC500BINT-Z

INTRODUCCIÓN

CARGADOR DE BATERÍAS PLUS

Gracias por comprar su nuevo Cargador de baterías Plus

de Snap-on.

El EEBC500B-INT es un cargador de baterías avanzado

con nuevas características y funciones adicionales.

El cargador utiliza un microprocesador, que controla el

voltaje y la corriente que pasa a la batería, proporcionando la

máxima potencia y el control preciso necesarios para cargar

los diversos tipos de baterías de 6 V (3 células) y 12 V (6

celdas) voltios en el mercado actual, entre otras: LiFePO

AGM, de ácido de plomo sellado, ciclo profundo, de placas

en espiral y estándar de automóvil. El cargador reduce los

tiempos de carga y maximiza la vida útil de las baterías.

EEBC500B-INT también tiene capacidad para potenciar el

voltaje en baterías de 24 (12 celdas). (EEBC500B-INT no

carga completamente las baterías de 24 V).

El microprocesador es el núcleo del algoritmo de carga

de etapas múltiples incorporado al EEBC500B-INT. La

tecnología de carga en base a un microprocesador ofrece

un algoritmo de carga sumamente versátil y brinda una

serie de mandos de manejo sencillo y una pantalla digital

de fácil lectura (voltaje, % de carga, % de rendimiento del

alternador) Su versatilidad permite la carga de una amplia

gama de baterías de distintos tipos.

Suministro de energía para reprogramación

del punto de ignición

Provee energía constante al voltaje especicado por el

fabricante del equipo original (a ingresar por el usuario)

permitiendo la reprogramación del punto de ignición de

computadoras de vehículos de manera interrumpida o el

mantenimiento de la conguración del sistema de un vehículo.

Durante la reprogramación, la energía suministrada al módulo

del vehículo no debe caer por debajo del voltaje especicado

por el fabricante del equipo original (OEM, por sus siglas en

inglés). Algunas operaciones de reprogramación realizadas

con la llave en encendido encenderán los ventiladores de

refrigeración, bombas de combustible y otros componentes

que harán que la batería se agote más rápidamente de lo

normal. En lugar de quitar fusibles para evitar el agotamiento

de la batería, resulta más sencillo y práctico conectar el

vehículo al suministro de energía de voltaje constante.

Durante la reprogramación, existe el riesgo de que la

operación falle si el voltaje cae por debajo del voltaje operativo

adecuado. En algunas ocasiones, una operación fallida

puede ser recuperada, pero existe la posibilidad de que la

reprogramación fallida arruine el módulo de mando.

Características

• Ruedas de 10 pulgadas (25.4 cm) de Diámetro,

Rellenas de unicel – que permite el movimiento fácil

en el taller o el suelo.

• Pantalla digital: % de carga, voltaje, rendimiento

del alternador – muestra datos precisos.

• Compartimiento portaherramientas con tapa: espacio

útil para guardar herramientas utilizadas en el

mantenimiento de baterías.

• Puntos de sujeción de pinzas y guarda cables

incorporados – mantiene las pinzas y los cables

organizados.

• Abrazaderas reforzadas – proporcionan conexiones

seguras y pérdidas de corriente mínimas.

• Cables de salida de 90 pulgadas (2.28 m) –

para mayor alcance en vehículos con baterías difíciles

de acceder.

• Cable eléctrico de 9 pies. (3 m) – para mayor alcance.

• Área de almacenaje en la parte inferior para el cargador o

baterías de 12 voltios. Para uso fuera y dentro de casa.
