1.1 Application 1.1.1 Range of functions The battery charger-discharger UL10 serves to test, charge and discharge all types of batteries based on their particular approved characteristics and using various programs. A menu and a touch-input keyboard control all the programs.
CHARGER / DISCAHRGER UL10 OPERATION MAUNAL 1.2 Sphere of application The normal body of the device is designed for indoor operation without any special ventilation. It can be installed in a laboratory, a charging room, etc. The device is fully adapted for field service when packed into a polyethylene or corrugated card- board transport case.
It prints out all basic parameters of a battery and all errors, if necessary. The battery tester The battery tester is connected to the UL10 device with a plug-and-socket connector type VG 95 328 C10-6SN (6-contact). The battery tester enables to measure voltages of batteries between -4.0 to + 4.0 V.
CHARGER / DISCAHRGER UL10 OPERATION MAUNAL 2.2 Rear Instrumentation wall 2.2.1 Mains cable 2.2.2 Source of acoustic signals The source of acoustic signals informs the operator of the condition of the device; accordingly them the operator receives relevant instructions to execute. An error of input, a failure or operation finish can induce an acoustic signal.
- connect the measuring cable when operating with nickel-cadmium batteries - the battery is connected to the UL10 with the cables from the delivery set (the cables with clamps (+ and -)). Check the polarity! When connecting the battery with the cable with tapered outlet clamps with built-in temperature sensors it is impossible to confuse the polarity because of the geometry of the poles of the battery.
CHARGER / DISCAHRGER UL10 OPERATION MAUNAL 3.3.2 Warning Be cautious when touching! The rear face of the pull-out unit can heat, specifically when executing the discharge programs. The device disconnects in case of an intolerable temperature rise. Do not open the device when it is on! Even when the device is disconnected from the 220 V AC mains there remains inside the device a level of voltage dangerous to touch.
