Troubleshooting - GYS MULTICHARGE CT 48 Manual De Instrucciones

Translation of the original instructions
• Thermal protection: the transformer is protected by thermostat. If the charger reaches its maximum duty cycle, it
will go into thermal protection for ¼ hour then start back to charge automatically.
TROUBLESHOOTING / CAUSES / SOLUTIONS

Troubleshooting

The ON/OFF button does not switch
on when set to ON.
The machine's anmeter does not
fluctuate .
The charger is properly connected but
it does not charge the battery
Ammeter's needle gets over the
maximum scale whereas the switch
set up is into the minimum.
The fuse blows every time it is
replaced
The battery is boiling.
Sparks coming on battery terminals.

MULTICHARGE CT 48
Causes
No mains voltage
Power supply problem.
Clamps in short circuit or polarity
reversal.
The battery that you are trying to
charge is faulty.
The output voltage selection is not in
accordance with battery.
After intensive use over a prolonged
period of time, your device has
entered thermal protection mode.
Blown fuse
Bad clamp connections.
Wrong charge settings
After intensive use over a prolonged
period of time, your device has
entered thermal protection mode.
The battery is deeply discharged.
Voltage error (12 -24V)
Your battery has elements in short
circuit.
Polarity reversal
Starting the vehicle
Current overconsumption on the
battery
The machine charges a battery that
its voltage is lower than the charger's
output nominal voltage.
The output voltage selection is not
consistent with the battery voltage.
Your battery has elements in short
circuit.
Polarity is reversed at the clamps
Solutions
Check that the power cord is plugged
to a 230V 50/60Hz socket. Check the
power supply network.
Check your mains power supply.
Check that the fuses have not melted
and that the circuit breaker has not
tripped
Check the voltage at the terminal
using a voltmeter. If this voltage
jumps instantaneously to 2.5V per
element, the battery may be sulfated
or damaged.
Check the output voltage switch is
settled to the right voltage of the
battery to charge.
Wait 1/4h for the device to cool
down.
Replace the fuse by a new one.
Clean the terminals and the clamps.
Check the state of the cables and
clamps.
Check that the selected voltage
matches the battery voltage.
Wait 1/4h for the device to cool
down.
Hold the charge while selecting a low-
er charging speed in order to avoid
damaging the battery. Check that the
current decreases during the charge
and adjust the charging speed regular-
ly during the charge.
Check that the switch is on the right
setting (12 or 24V)
Battery damaged. Change the battery.
Connect the + clamp to the battery's
(+) and the + clamp to the battery's
(-).
Do not attempt to jump start when
the charger is connected.
Do not draw any of the battery's
current during the charge
Set up the output voltage switch on
correct battery voltage.
Set up the output voltage switch on
correct battery voltage.
The battery is damaged and must be
replaced.
Connect the clamps to the battery
terminal (black clamp to "-" and red
clamp to "+").
