6 Technical description
The battery charger charges batteries that are used as a source of voltage
on board vehicles or boats, or supplies them with a float charge voltage to
ensure they are not discharged.
The service life of most lead batteries is reduced by sulphation: lead sulphate
forms into large, smooth crystals over the course of time and the amorphous,
spongy structure disappears. The ability to recharge and therefore the charg-
ing capacity gradually decreases and the battery ages.
The battery charger operates using specific frequencies in parts of its charg-
ing curve. This causes the crystals to vibrate in their resonant frequency.
They decompose into their amorphous structure. Their molecules can be
integrated back into the charging process which in turn increases the charg-
ing voltage, starting current and the capacity of the battery again.
All lead batteries are protected from premature ageing by regular charging
using the battery charger.
The battery charger can be operated in three operating modes:
 Mode 1: Charge mode with 14.4 V
This mode is used for lead, gel and maintenance-free batteries.
 Mode 2: Charge mode with 14.7 V
This mode is used for AGM batteries.
 Mode 3: Voltage supply with 13.7 V (battery is not connected)
This mode is used as a power supply function, e.g. for supplying voltage
to the vehicle in the event of replacing a battery, or during maintenance
work using service devices.
The device can be installed on a wall using the wall bracket for stationary
storage (accessory).
Furthermore, an external battery indicator (accessory) can be used. This
shows the battery capacity and can be connected to the battery permanently
using a connection cable with cable lugs. When it indicates the battery is
empty, the battery charger can be connected to the battery indicator and the
battery can be charged directly.
The battery indicator can be attached to a wall or to a wall bracket for the
battery charger using a wall bracket.
