responsible for any damage resulting from the use of the battery charger after opening it and/or modifying it and/or
inserting it into other systems.
24) Under no circumstances can S.P.E. ELETTRONICA INDUSTRIALE be held responsible for the malfunctioning of
the batteries or the incineration/explosion of these, in so much as the safety of the battery is the task of the BMS and
not of the battery charger.
CHECKING CABLES, GRID, EARTHING
25) Do not transport the battery charger by pulling on the cables as they could be damaged.
Use the handles on the battery charger, if provided.
26) Before using the battery charger, check that the sleeving on the mains cable and battery cables is in good
condition. Should one of the cables be damaged, have it replaced by a S.P.E. ELETTRONICA INDUSTRIALE
qualified technician.
27) Check that the input voltage of the battery charger given on the data plate is in line with the voltage available.
28) Check the compatibility of the mains plug supplied with the battery charger: the use of adaptors is not
recommended (in Canada it is against the law). This charger is provided with cord set for connection to outlets
operating at nominal 120 Volts (or 240 Volts as appropriate). If the input plug does not fit the power outlet, contact
SPE ELETTRONICA INDUSTRIALE for the proper cord set terminating in an attachment plug of the proper
configuration for the power outlet.
29) The battery charger must be plugged into a socket fitted with an earth wire. Should the socket not be equipped
with an earth connection, do not use the device before having a suitable socket installed by a qualified technician.
30) The power socket to which the battery charger is to be connected must be protected by an electrical device by
law (fuse and/or automatic cut-out), capable of absorbing an electrical current equalling the absorption of current
stated on the matriculation number of the battery charger, increased by 10%.
31) Do not open the battery charger as there are no parts which can be serviced and/or replaced by the user. Only
specialized personnel, authorized by S.P.E. ELETTRONICA INDUSTRIALE may carry out servicing which involves
opening the actual device. Electrical/electronic components inside may cause electric shocks even if the device is not
plugged in.
CHECKING BATTERY CHARGER OPERATION AND CURVE
32) Before charging, make sure that the battery charger is in line with the voltage of the battery, that the charging
current suits the capacity of the battery and that the selected charging curve (for lead-acid batteries, or for airtight
GEL or AGM type batteries, Lithium Polymer or Lithium Ion batteries) is correct for the type of battery to be charged.
33) We recommend fitting a fuse between battery charger and battery. The fuse must be installed along the
connection to the positive terminal of the battery. The rating of the fuse must be proportionate to the nominal output
current of the battery charger, the diameter of cable used and the environment in which it is to be installed.
34) We recommend unplugging it from the mains supply before connecting and disconnecting batteries.
35) During normal operation of the battery charger, the external surface may become hot and may remain so for a
certain period of time after it has been switched off.
36) The battery charger needs no special maintenance, only regular cleaning procedures, to be carried out according
to the type of working environment. Cleaning procedures should only be carried out on the external surface of the
battery charger. Before starting any cleaning procedures, the mains supply cable and battery cables must be
unplugged. Do NOT use water and/or detergents in general and/or pressure washers of any kind when carrying out
cleaning.
37) If safe operation of the battery charger can no longer be ensured, stop the device and ensure that it cannot be
put back into operation.
38) The specifications set out in this manual are subject to change without any notice. This publication replaces any
previously supplied information.
