INTRODUCTION

This procedure defines the installation and wiring for the Auto 

Charge 12 PIM Automatic Battery Charger. It is suggested that 

the installer read the entire instruction manual to become 

familiar with the tasks involved before starting. 

The Auto Charge 12 PIM Battery Charger is a compact 

completely automatic charger designed for installation on 

vehicles with one (1) battery. The Auto Charge 12 provides 

complete battery. Remote sensing permits long lines between 

the charger and the batteries by compensating for the voltage 

drop in the charging wires. An ammeter provides continuous 

indication of the charger output.

Construction of the Auto Charge 12 PIM is extremely rugged 

to withstand the shock and vibration normally encountered 

by vehicle mounted equipment. The unit operates completely 

automatically and stops charging the batteries when they 

are fully charged. There is no trickle charge and therefore no 

danger of overcharging and water boil-off. Any parasitic loads 

on the battery such as radio, lights, etc., will be supplied by 

current from the charger.

Any 120 volts loads when plugged into the GFI on the Auto-

Charge 12 PIM will be protected from ground faults. A separate 

level operated circuit breaker protects the GFI connected 

loads. This circuit breaker may also be used to disconnect 

these loads from the line. The fuse on the Auto-Charge 12 PIM 

protects the charger only.

INSTALLATION

The Auto Charge 12 PIM Automatic Battery Charger should be 

installed in an area with adequate ventilation. A power cord is 

supplied for connection to 115 volts 60 Hz.

1.  Mount the charger using the four holes provided for this.

2.  Connect the wiring from the battery to the Output 

Terminal Strip. Spade lugs that have been securely 

crimped, or soldered, should be used.

3.  Double check all wiring before proceeding.

4.  Wire the A.C. power line cord to 115VAC.

5.  Pilot light will light to show that the charger has power.

6.  The ammeter will indicate how much the batteries are 

charging. A charging current limit of amperes is factory 

set.
