IMPORTANT & SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS 1. 1) SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS — This manual contains important safety and operating instructions for battery charger 2. 2) Do not expose battery charger to rain or snow. 3. 3) Use of an attachment not recommended or sold by the battery charger manufacturer may result in a risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons. 4. 4) Do not disassemble battery charger ; take it to a qualified serviceman when service or repair is required.
minutes and get medical attention immediately. 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.
Introduction The model BCD 610 Battery Charger charges either 12, 24, 32 or 48 VDC batteries from a 110, 250 or 300 VDC power source. Other battery voltages up to 72 volts are also available by special order. The all new Current Mode switching design offers increased power and reliability in a compact package. Extra input and output filtering reduce EMI to extremely low levels.

A ground stud is provided to bond the chassis to local ground to reduce or eliminate EMI. OUTPUT CONNECTIONS Two Positive output terminals and two Negative output terminals are provided. Connect only one wire to each terminal. Ensure that the total average load connected to the batteries does not exceed the continuous current rating of the unit. To ensure spark free connections the power switch must be in the OFF position prior to making the connections to the battery bank(s).
ies will reach the absorption voltage (3-stage) or float voltage (2-stage), and the charging current will reduce as necessary to maintain the batteries at that voltage. Once the charging current has dropped to a low level (about 15% of the charging current rating), the charging light will go off, and if set to 3-stage charging the voltage will drop to the float level. You may check this voltage at the output terminals of the unit with a good digital voltmeter.
it can overcharge a battery supplying current to a load. A two-stage charger is preferred for “loaded” batteries and a three-stage for idle or unloaded batteries during recharging. All of Analytic Systems’ chargers include adjustable output voltage for charging standard or deep cycle lead-acid, VLRA or gel type batteries. Troubleshooting This unit provides LED indicators and a buzzer to help diagnose any problems. The unit should sound the buzzer to alert you prior to shutting itself down.
Dry Contact Relay To use your dry contact output fail relay you must connect a 9-pin D connector to the unit. You must use pins one and six as is indicated on page 9 in the remote connector diagram. The relay is factory preset to fail in the closed position when the low output LED and buzzer come on. If you wish to have the relay fail in the open position when the low output LED and buzzer come on, you must take the cover off the unit and move the jumper to the other position on J22.
Remote Control Option IMPORTANT: This remote is to be used only on Battery Chargers manufactured by Analytic Systems. A remote control panel may be connected to the battery charger using a 9-pin D-connector, which 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.
Equalize Option The purpose of the Equalize Option is to deliberately overcharge the battery at a low rate of current to ensure that all cells are fully charged and to reduce the chance of sulfation of the battery. During the Equalize cycle, the cells, which are fully charged, will produce Hydrogen gas, and the cells, which are undercharged, will be brought up to full charge. An Equalize cycle should be done once every 2-3 months, or whenever battery capacity appears to be diminished.
If a battery blanket is used the sensor may be tucked inside the blanket with the proper side of the sensor facing the battery. The sensor may be placed on top of the battery but it should be secured to the battery so as to prevent it from losing contact with the battery. Battery Charger Temperature Compensation The charger is calibrated with the sensor input preset to 77 degrees (25 degrees C). For example, for a 12V battery, this voltage is 13.6 volts, and 27.2 volts for a 24V battery.
