Designated use
The SG6 battery charger is an electronic appliance, only for professional use,
firmware installed.
According to the application and the software programmed it is also allowed as power supply use.
Installation and safety instructions
Battery charger SG6 plus has been designed to provide safety and reliable. It is necessary to observe the following precautions in order to
avoid damage to persons and to the battery charger:
Read the installation instructions contained in this Manual carefully. For further information put the Manual in a proper place.
•
Do not put the battery charger near heat sources.
•
Ensure that no flammable materials are stored in the area surrounding the charger.
•
Being a sealed charger with no force-ventilation, its performances depend on the temperature and on the kind of installation. It is kindly
•
recommended to install it on a dissipating plate or similar. External heatsink, even ventilated, can be mounted in order to increase the
thermal dissipation.
Verify that the available supply voltage corresponds to the voltage that is stated on the battery charger name plate. In case of doubt,
•
consult a retailer or local Electric Supply Authority.
As protection device in the input of the battery charger You can both use a switch of AC class, but it is warmly recommended to use
•
one of A class or even better one of B class.
For safety and electromagnetic compatibility, the battery charger has a 3-prong plug as a safety feature, and it will only fit into an
•
earthed outlet. If you can not plug it in, chances are you have an older, non-earthed outlet; contact an electrician to have the outlet
replaced. Do not use an adapter to defeat the grounding.
To avoid damaging the power cord, do not put anything on it or place it where it will be walked on. If the cord becomes damaged or
•
frayed, have it immediately replaced.
If you are using an extension cord or power strip, make sure that the total of the amperes required by all the equipment on the
•
extension is less than the extension's rating.
Disconnect the mains supply before connecting or disconnecting the links to the battery.
•
To recharge Lead Acid batteries: WARNING: Explosive Gas – Avoid flames and sparks. The battery must be positioned in a correctly
•
cooled place.
Do not use to charge starting batteries put on board of thermal engine cars.
•
Avoid recharging of non-rechargeable batteries.
•
Verify that the nominal voltage of the battery to be re-charged corresponds to the voltage stated on the battery charger name plate.
•
Verify that the selected charging curve is suitable for the type of battery to be re-charged. In case of doubt, consult Your retailer. ZIVAN
•
S.r.l. will not accept any responsibility in case of mistaken choice of the charging curve that may cause irreversible damage to the
battery.
In order to avoid voltage drop, thereby assuring 100% charge at the battery, the output cables must be as short as possible, and the
•
diameter must be adequate for the output current.
In case of thermal compensation of the battery voltage, put the thermal sensor in the warmest point inside the battery compartment.
•
Do not try to service the battery charger yourself. Opening the cover may expose you to shocks or other hazards.
•
Do not open the charger. Opening it may bring to a loss in the protection grade (IP), that may persist also after having restored the
•
sealing.
If the battery charger does not work correctly or if it has been damaged, unplugged it immediately from the supply socket and from the
•
battery socket and contact a retailer.
