IMPORTANT & SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS — This manual contains important safety and operating instructions for the battey charger. ALL BATTERY CHARGERS 1. CAUTION — To reduce risk of injury, charge only lead acid or sealed gel cell type rechargeable batteries. Other types of batteries may burst causing personal injury and damage. 2. Do not expose battery charger to rain or snow. 3.
v. NEVER smoke or allow a spark or flame in vicinity of battery or engine. vi. Be extra cautious to reduce risk of dropping a metal tool onto battery. It might spark or short-circuit battery or other electrical part that may cause explosion. vii. Remove personal metal items such as rings, bracelets, necklaces, and watches when working with a lead-acid battery. A lead-acid battery can produce a short-circuit current high enough to weld a ring or the like to metal, causing a severe burn. viii.
Introduction The all new single board design incorporates state of the art switchmode technology for unmatched efficiency and ultra-quite operation. Multiple stages of filtering reduce radiated or conducted noise to very low levels. Extra features include adjustable output voltage, audible and visual indicators for low input voltage, low output voltage, over temperature and charging.
Specifications Model BCD600-32-12 BCD600-32-24 Input Volts (DC) 20 - 45 30 - 45 Input Amps 40 40 Output Volts (DC) 13.6 ± 0.5 VDC 27.2 ± 0.5 VDC Charging Current 50 Amps 38 Amps Output Crowbar 16.0 ± 0.5 V 32.0 ± 1.
Installation Allow at least 1 inch of clearance all around the case for cooling. The best mounting configuration is to mount the unit on a vertical surface oriented as shown. Use #10 screws of the appropriate type for the mounting surface to securely mount the unit. OUTPUT FUSE OUTPUT 1 OUTPUT 2 OUTPUT FUSE OVERLOAD OVERTEMP The case has 500 volts of isolation from both the input and output, so it may be mounted on any surface without fear of electrolysis or ground fault.
Operation To turn the unit on, simply move the power switch to the ON position. The alarm buzzer will sound and the Low Input LED will come on briefly, and then the green Output ON LED will illuminate. If you wish to adjust the output voltage, remove the cover plate (secured by 2 screws) to expose the output adjust potentiometer. Reach in with a very small flat blade screwdriver to rotate the potentiometer. Clockwise increases the output voltage, and counter clockwise decreases it.
If the red Charging LED, the Low Output LED and the audible alarm come on, and the green Output On LED is completely off, the output of the unit has been shorted out, or there has been an internal failure. Turn the unit off, disconnect the battery bank connected to it, and turn it back on again. If it comes on normally, then the battery bank or output connections have a short. You must rectify the cause of the fault before reconnecting the battery bank.
Remote Control Option A remote control panel may be connected to the battery charger using a 9-pin D-connector that attaches to the side of the battery charger. The remote control panel and D connector are part of the remote control option. The remote control panel allows the unit to be operated remotely as well as duplicating all the diagnostic indicators and audible alarm. IMPORTANT: This remote is to be used only on Battery Chargers manufactured by Analytic Systems.
