Congratulations on purchasing your new GSL Electronics 3 stage 24V to 12V Battery Charger. This product
utilises Switchmode and Microprocessor technology for the charging of 12Volt Lead Acid batteries. The charger
provides a safe and fast method of restoring discharged batteries and maintaining them. This is achieved via
precisely controlled Bulk, Absorption and Float charging states. Both models are fully protected against overload,
short circuit, over temperature, reverse polarity connection, over voltage and with a bulk charge timeout for
additional safety. The models are built in a compact and strong aluminium extrusion which can be easily secured
to both vertical and horizontal surfaces. Before starting the charge cycle the battery voltages are evaluated to
detect faulty batteries.
Bulk Mode – This mode of the battery charger delivers bulk charging current regulated to 40 / 60 Amps into
the battery being charged. After the battery voltage rises to approximately 70% charge. The charger will switch
automatically into Absorption Mode.
Absorption Mode – In this mode the battery charger output voltage is maintained at 14.5V until the current drops
Float Mode - The voltage is reduced to 13.5V and maintained at that level with the charger supplying just enough
current to maintain the battery at full capacity.
Installation & Safety Precautions:
1. The following connection sequence is to be followed:
Ground (BLACK), Input (BLUE), Output (RED) and Control (WHITE).
2. Preferably mount the unit inside the vehicle. Avoid locations where external heat is produced e.g. exhaust
system or where the batteries are located.
3. Choose a position with good ventilation where air can pass freely around the unit.
4. Ensure the unit is protected from water spray and other sources of contamination e.g. oil, grease and dust.
