Important Safety Instructions
4) Battery Location - This unit can not be mounted directly above or below a battery due
to the corrosive nature of the gasses and electrolyte. Take care to ensure that spillage
of electrolyte can be contained in a proper battery box or tray in the event of a leak
and that the corrosive gas given off during the use and charge cycles cannot come
into contact with the unit.
5) Temperature - note installation is permitted in an environment of 45° C (113° F)
maximum. Otherwise, it may result in output reduction to protect internal components
and the performance of the unit. Check intended installation spaces before installing
to prevent unit thermal shutdown. Please note ProMariner recommends at least 6" of
clearance space around all sides and the front of the charger for proper cooling.
CAUTION - To preclude a safety hazard, all existing AC and DC electrical components (e.g. wire,
fuses, circuit breakers, battery switches, and connections) must be inspected for proper condition
prior to installation. Failure to confirm adequate condition and proper installation to ABYC standard
E-11 AC & DC electrical systems on-board boats may result in a dangerous condition and/or premature
failure of this or other installed electrical components. Any and all areas of the existing system that are
found not in compliance with ABYC E-11 must be replaced prior to installation. See www.abyc.com
for a limited use copy of E-11 and the other applicable standards.
CAUTION If you are replacing an existing battery charger please disconnect the battery
charger output cables from the existing charger AND the battery(s). Do not use existing cables
if they are not in compliance with the sizes detailed in this manual. If you have any doubt
about your ability to fuse and wire this unit correctly PLEASE refer to www.abyc.com for a list
of certified electricians in your area that are qualified to perform this installation to the ABYC
standards.
WARNING: AC Installations have the potential to cause serious injury or death, installations should
be performed by an ABYC Certified Electrical Technician to insure a safe and trouble free installation.
24 Volt Systems - This manual is written describing 12V installations, for 24V installations
always make sure you have a 24V ProNauticP Charger and that your batteries are configured
as a 24 volt system. Each bank requires a separate 24V positive connection to the charger.

AC GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS - The Ground (GND) terminal of the AC input connector
must be connected to the AC grounding system at the AC ground buss.
DC GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS - The external case grounding stud should be connected to
the vessel's Bonding System which is connected to the Boats DC negative terminal. Please
refer to ABYC A-31.
