Automatic charger AL 800 compact
Before using the device, please consider
the instructions in this manual.
It is required by law that we give you im-
portant instructions for your own safety
and make you aware of how you can
avoid damage to people, the device and
other facilities.
If this manual is not taken into considera-
tion, the manufacturer is not liable for any
damage that results from negligence or
deliberate disregard of the manual.
Danger during charger operation
The charger is produced according to the
state of the art and approved safety-rela-
ted regulations. However, in case of mal-
operation or misuse, there is the threat to
- physical condition and life of the user or
third parties,
- the charger and equipment of the ope-
rator.
Every person who deals with the set-up,
operation, maintenance and Servicing of
the charger, must be either accordingly
qualified, acquire or have knowledge in
handling chargers and consider this ma-
nual in detail.
Errors affecting safety must be avoided
and if necessary fixed immediately.
To ensure safe operation, the operator
must consider the safety instructions and
warnings included in the manual.
Intended use
The device is designed for automatic
charge and buffering of lead batteries
with 2, 6 or 12V
terminal tension. A sliding switch carries
out the set-up of the battery voltage.
Possible battery types are lead-gel, lead-
fleece or lead-acid-batteries.
Primary batteries (zinc-carbon, alkaline,
etc.) or other battery types must not be
plugged in or charged.
Another mode of operation other than the
one specified is not allowed and results in
the damage of the product.
In addition, this is linked with dangers,
such as short-circuit, firing, electric shock
etc.
Specifications
The I-U-charging concept charges the
lead-battery with constant current of 800
mA (0,8A) until the end of charge voltage
is reached for the respective battery.
The charger recognises this and switches
to constant current in order to adjust the
charging current down (Maintenance
charger). The battery charger is therefore
maintained at an ideal level.
As a result, the battery can be plugged
into the charger for a longer period of
time. This is the reason why this device
is suitable for "over wintering". The lumi-
nous display on the charger always gives
information on the current operating sta-
tus. The plug charger is protected against
overcharge and short-term short-circuit
(<1min.). The polarity on the charging out-
put must be taken into consideration. A
protective circuit avoids charging in case
of incorrect poling that could destroy the
battery as well as the charger. Incorrect
poling will be indicated by a red light. The
connection is carried out by marked bat-
