INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
(reprinted from AT30 Operating and Service Instructions, Section 1.11, Page 20)
The remote TempCo probe contains a temperature-dependent resistor in an
epoxy module that you install near your battery. There are three (3) steps
in installing the assembly:
1. Mounting the probe assembly near the battery.
2. Installing an interconnection cable from the probe assembly to the AT30.
3. Wiring the charger end of the cable to a terminal block on the AT30.
The actual temperature compensation probe (A10), or puck, is the same for
all battery types and all output voltages of the AT30. The accessory part
numbers differ depending on cable length ordered. See the tables in
Appendix B on page 65 for ordering information. Each kit contains
detailed Installation Instructions (
main elements of the installation are outlined below.
High voltages appear at several points inside the AT30. Use extreme
caution when working inside the enclosure. Do not attempt to work
inside the AT30 unless you are a qualified technician or electrician.
Disconnect and lock out all power from the AT30 before starting to
remove or replace any components. Turn the ac power off at the
distribution panel upstream from the charger. Disconnect the battery
from the AT30 output terminals TB1(+/-).
PROCEDURE
1. De-energize and lock out all ac and dc voltage sources to the AT30, and
check with a voltmeter before proceeding.
2. Mount the probe on a clean, dry surface, as close to the battery as possible,
such as the battery rack. DO NOT mount the probe:
on the battery itself
on unpainted wood, or bare galvanized metal.
on plastic surfaces
3. To apply the probe, clean the mounting surface with isopropyl alcohol, and
allow to dry thoroughly. Remove the protective backing from the double-
faced adhesive tape on the probe, and securely press it onto the surface.
4. Install the cable supplied with the temperature compensation probe kit:
Start at the AT30. The end of the cable with two stripped wires and a
quick-connect terminal will be installed inside the AT30.
Leave 30in / 762mm of cable inside the enclosure, and route the other end
to the probe at the battery.
