Optimate 6 12/24V Gold TM380 Инструкция онлайн [8/44] 859361

MAINTAINING A BATTERY FOR EXTENDED PERIODS: For accurate temperature regulated charging and long

term maintenance place OptiMate as close as possible to the battery under charge. For example, if the

battery is within a vehicle or craft stored outside in direct sun or cold, place the OptiMate inside the vehicle or craft

(or its battery compartment) so that charge voltage is adjusted according to the same environment temperature

that the battery would experience.

The OptiMate will maintain a battery whos basic condition is good, for months at a time. At least once every two

weeks, check that the connections between the charger and battery are secure, and, in the case of batteries with

filler caps on each cell, disconnect the battery from the charger, check the level of the electrolyte and if necessary,

top up the cells (with distilled water, NOT acid), then reconnect. When handling batteries or in their vicinity, always

take care to observe the SAFETY WARNINGS above.

VERY FLAT NEGLECTED BATTERIES: If the battery is deeply discharged (and possibly sulfated), remove from

the vehicle or equipment and inspect the battery before connecting the charger for a recovery attempt. The

charger’s recovery mode may not engage if it senses that the battery is still connected to a circuit which

effectively offers a lower electrical resistance than the battery on its own. However, if the deep-discharged battery

is not removed for recovery, neither battery nor vehicle or equipment electronics will be damaged. Pay particularly

close attention to the following A battery left deep-discharged for an extended period may develop permanent

damage in one or more cells. Such batteries may heat up excessively during high current charging.

Monitor the battery temperature during the first hour, then hourly there-after. Check for unusual signs, such as

bubbling or leaking electrolyte, heightened activity in one cell compared to others, or hissing sounds. If at any time

the battery is uncomfortably hot to touch or you notice any unusual signs, DISCONNECT THE CHARGER

IMMEDIATELY.

NOTES ON TEST RESULTS:

1. For any test result other than green #6 (or green #6 and yellow #7 together if the battery is a STD type with filler

caps), disconnect the battery from the electrical system it supports, and reconnect the OptiMate. If a better test

result is now obtained, this suggests that the power losses are partly due to an electrical problem in the electrical

system and not in the battery itself.

2. If the red LED #8 alone, or the yellow #7 and red LED #8 indicate together, or yellow #7 LED alone for a sealed

battery, a significant problem exists. The battery is unable to retain sufficient charge or is losing charge very fast

due to connected circuitry. A sudden load being switched on while the charger is connected can also cause the

battery voltage to dip significantly.

3. GOOD TEST RESULT, but the battery cannot deliver sufficient power: Degraded inter-cell connections or poor

external connection at battery posts may cause severe voltage drop when high current is demanded from the

battery. Check external battery connections or have battery professionally assessed (load tested).

ECO POWER SAVING MODE WHEN THE CHARGER IS CONNECTED TO AC SUPPLY:

The power converter switches to ECO mode when the charger is not connected to a battery resulting in a very low

power draw of less than 0.5W, equivalent to power consumption of 0.012 kWh per day. When a battery is

connected to the charger power consumption depends on the current demand of the battery and its connected

vehicle / electronic circuitry. After the battery has been charged and the charger is in long term maintenance

charge mode (to keep the battery at 100% charge) the total power consumption is estimated to be 0.024kWh or

less per day.
