D I DK ΕΛ N P E Installation • The installation of this product must be performed by qualified personnel. • Always refer to the installation section in the operator’s manual before applying power to the equipment. • This is a Safety Class I product (provided with a protective earthing terminal). An uninterruptible safety earth ground must be provided at the AC in/output terminals. An additional grounding point is located at the outside of the product.
To keep your batteries in shape the Phoenix Charger will raise the applied voltage once a week. This we call the repetitive absorption. DESCRIPTION Technology The Phoenix Charger is a fully high-frequency switched battery charger. The input is electronically powerfactor corrected by the first powerstage. The next stage gives provision for galvanic isolation and a perfect DC voltage at the output terminals.

INSTALLATION WARNING: Qualified personnel only Location The Phoenix Charger must be installed in a dry, well-ventilated area. Too high an ambient temperature has the consequence of lower output, shorter life or a complete shutdown of the Phoenix Charger. The Phoenix Charger is suitable for floor and wall mounting. However, for optimum cooling, a vertical position is recommended. The cables between the Phoenix Charger and the battery must be kept as short as possible to minimise cable losses.

Adjustments without remote panel When ready • Connect battery and if applicable Voltage sense and Temperature sense. • Replace the frontplate.
Adjustments with remote panel Phoenix Charger Control WARNING: Always check with your battery supplier if the choosen charge characteristic is suitable for your battery and application • Remove the frontplate and connect the Phoenix Charger Control panel to the 8-pin modular jack. • Disconnect battery, Voltage sense and Temperature sense. A voltmeter is not required but may be useful. • While switching on keep one of the pushbuttons ⇑ & ⇓ pushed. • Release pushbutton.
After 4 hours the charger continues the normal sequence with the old value. This could be useful if a forced high voltage is wanted to get some life in an assumed ‘dead’ battery. Return to factory defaults • Switch the charger on. • Keep the pushbutton ⇑ and/ or ⇓ pushed while switching off. • The factory defaults are restored. • Replace the frontplate.
