Safety Notice
While using products with electrical voltage
the valid VDE-regulations have to be applied,
especially VDE 0100, VDE, VDE 0700, VDE
0711 and VDE 0860.
• Prior to opening the housing of such appli-
ance the plug is to be disconnected from the
mains or it must be ensured that the appli-
ance is not under high voltage.
• Components and appliances can only be
used if they are built into a specific housing.
• During installation no electrical power must
be applied.
• Tools should be used in appliances or with
components only after voltage cut off.
• In case of electrical loads with components
they should be discharged before contact is
being made.
• Cables and wires should always be che-
cked with regard to insulation faults and/or
breakage's.
• In case any faulty cable or wire is detected
the appliance has to be disconnected from
the mains immediately until the faulty part
has been repaired or replaced.
• When replacing component parts they
have to match the original parts in all re-
spects and meet all electrical characteristics
and specifications.
• If a non-commercial and/or non-technical
minded end consumer does not understand
the electrical specifications he/she must
contact an expert for advice.
• Prior to using the appliance it has to be
checked whether it is suitable for'the inten-
ded application. In case of doubts an expert
has to be contacted.
Please notice that usage and connection mi-
stakes are beyond our influence and that we
therefore cannot accept any liability.
Product description
With this automatic charger all 2-6-12V lead
acid batteries can be charged automatically.
When the connected battery is completely
charged, the current will be reduced to pre-
vent overcharging. Due to the automatic vol-
tage and current control the connected bat-
tery will always stay completely charged and
at the same time the overcharging as well as
the gas development will be prevented.
A security circuit prevents that there is no
voltage at the connecting pins as long as
there is no
The product has the following features:
• short circuit and wrong polarity prevention
l constant final charging current
• no charging with.wrong connected polarity
• charging will only take place with correctly
connected battery
• optical display for charging and polarity
This article has been checked according to
EU-regulations 09.11.1992) and is according
to law requirements. The changing circuit or
the usage of other components as indicated
leads to of this approval.
Operating information
In contrast to simple chargers the charging
current of this automatic charger is not con-
stant and depends on some components,
for example the actual charging level of the
battery, the age of the battery, the type of the
battery and the capacity. Also it is important
how much the battery has been discharged
before.
If the battery had been discharged with high
currency then there will be in the beginning
of the charging a high current (max. w h i c h
decreases after a short period. This means
that with rising voltage the charging current
decreases.
Towards the end of the charging (battery is
