The Tron Charge NiCad charger

The Tron CHARGE NiCad charger is specially made for charging your
secondary battery, type 93003 or 93030. On the left side there is space for
storing the primary emergency battery, type 80242.
The charger has a fast charge facility, which fully charges the 93003 battery
within 4 hours. When the battery is fully charged, this is detected, and Tron
CHARGE switches to trickle charge mode. This is indicated with the
Charge LED switching off.
There are also built in temperature sensors detecting charge temperature
limits and sudden rises in battery temperature. If the charger is detecting
out of limit temperatures, this causes the unit to switch to trickle charge
mode. It is important to note that the absolute battery temperature is not
detected by the charger, and must be within 0ºC to 40ºC when starting the
charge cycle.
The charger supply can be 230VAC, 115V AC, 12 to 16V DC or 24 to 28V
DC. For changing the AC source, modifications must be done on the
Printed Circuit Board. If a DC source is required, the power cable must be
connected to the +12VDC socket within the unit. For 24 to 28V DC an extra
resistor of 33ohm/20W must be connected in serial with the
power supply. This resistor is available from JOTRON at stock number X-
93750.
NOTE!
If Tron CHARGE is connected to a DC source with higher voltage than 16V
DC, an extra resistor of 33ohm/20W must be connected in serial with the
power supply.
This resistor is available from JOTRON at stock number X-93750.
