Safety rules General The device is manufactured using state-of-the-art technology and according to recognised safety standards. If used incorrectly or misused, however, it can cause: injury or death to the operator or a third party, damage to the device and other material assets belonging to the operat- ing company, inefficient operation of the device.
Mains connection Devices with a higher rating may affect the energy quality of the mains due to their current consumption. This may affect a number of types of device in terms of: connection restrictions criteria with regard to the maximum permissible mains impedance criteria with regard to the minimum short-circuit power requirement at the interface with the public grid see Technical Data...
Battery acid must not get into the eyes, onto the skin or clothes. Wear pro- tective goggles and suitable protective clothing. Rinse any acid splashes thoroughly with clean water, and seek medical advice if necessary. General informa- Protect batteries from dirt and mechanical damage. tion regarding the Store charged batteries in a cool place.
EMC Device Clas- Devices in emission class A: sifications Are only designed for use in industrial settings Can cause line-bound and radiated interference in other areas Devices in emission class B: Satisfy the emissions criteria for residential and industrial areas. This is also true for residential areas in which the energy is sup- plied from the public low-voltage mains.
Safety inspection The manufacturer recommends that a safety inspection of the device is per- formed at least once every 12 months. A safety inspection should be carried out by a qualified electrician after any changes are made after any additional parts are installed, or after any conversions after repair, care and maintenance has been carried out at least every twelve months.
General information Device concept The single-phase Selectiva battery charging systems for 24 V and 48 V batteries are fitted with intelligent charging technology. The successful Active Inverter Technology with the revolutionary Ri charging process adapts itself to the requirements of the battery and only charges the battery with the current that it actually needs.
Always stop charging before you disconnect the charging cable! An electric shock can be fatal. The housing must never be opened by anyone other than a Fronius-trained service technician. The device must be disconnect- ed from the mains before starting any work with the housing open. A suitable measuring instrument must be used to ensure that electrically charged compo- nents (e.g.
WARNING! An electric shock can be fatal. The housing must never be opened inside the device by anyone other than a Fronius-trained service technician. The device must be disconnected from the mains before starting any work with the housing open. A suitable measuring instrument must be used to ensure that electrically charged components (e.g.

The device must only be operated in a hori- zontal position. The air surrounding the charger must be kept free from battery acid vapour as far as pos- sible. You should therefore avoid setting up the charger directly above the battery being charged.
Wall and floor WARNING! Work that is carried out incorrectly and falling chargers can cause se- bracket rious injury and damage. This installation must only be carried out by trained and qualified personnel. Take note of the safety rules in the charger operating instruc- tions.
Control elements and connections General NOTE! As a result of firmware updates, you may find that there are functions available on your device that are not described in these operating instructions or vice versa. Certain illustrations may also differ slightly from the actual controls on your device.

Charging the battery Charging WARNING! Risk of serious injury or damage from escaping battery acid or explo- sion if faulty batteries are charged. Before charging, ensure that the battery to be charged is fully functional. WARNING! Risk of serious injury and damage from incorrect charging settings or a defective battery.
The battery symbol indicates the current state of charge. The greater the number of bars that are displayed, the further advanced the charging process is. As soon as the battery is fully charged, a minute counter will appear (see figure on right). This counts the minutes since the end of charging;...
As long as a battery is connected to the charger, only the charging process can be inter- rupted and resumed using the "Stop/Start" key. Display modes can be changed using the "Menu" key as described in the "Display" section, but this is only possible when there is no battery connected to the charger.
