Safety strategy –
standard protective
features
The new chargers do not just boast functional features. In terms of
safety, the chargers are also equipped to the highest standards. The
following safety features come as standard:
– Voltage-free and spark-free terminals protect against explosions.
– Reverse polarity protection prevents the battery or charger from
being damaged or destroyed.
– Short-circuit protection provides effective protection for the charger.
The fuse does not need to be replaced in the event of a short circuit.
– A charging time monitor provides effective protection against over-
charging and destruction of the battery.
– Thanks to the high degree of protection, there is a lower rate of
contamination in adverse conditions. This adds to the charger’s
reliability.
– Overtemperature protection through derating (charging current
reduced if the temperature rises above the permitted level).
NOTE!
Inadequately dimensioned electrical installations
can lead to serious damage. The incoming mains lead
and its fuse must be dimensioned to suit the local power
supply. The technical data shown on the rating plate
applies.
