Figure 3 – Input Connections Output DC Connections Connect Ultracap/battery DC cables to the equipment per the image shown below. Refer to section 3.3 for recommended wire sizes.
  • Page 8: Power Cabling Guide

    Power Cabling Guide Use the following formulas and tables to determine proper wire size for minimal voltage drop. Table of Conventions = Cross section of wire in circular MIL area = Ultimate drain in amperes = Conductor loop feet MaxAmp = Maximum allowable amperes for given voltage drop = Allowable voltage drop = 11.1 for commercial (TW) copper wire (KS5482-01)

    Table 4 – Alarm Relay Logic INPUT/OUTPUT PROTECTION: AC Input Fuses: The Ultra Series charger is equipped with two AC input fuses. DC Output Fuse: The Ultra Series charger is equipped with one DC output fuse. Refer to unit specifications (Section 7) for fuse size information.
  • Page 10: Temperature Compensation

    Temperature Compensation Ultra Series charger is equipped with an External Temperature Compensation feature. The charger is provided with the compensation circuit and a 24 foot long temperature probe. The natural voltage of the battery changes as a function of temperature change. As the Ultracap/ battery temperature rises, the effective voltage of the Ultracap/battery decreases.
