Basic Installation
Reading this paragraph should be sufficient for 90% of
installers. Connect the Bat 1 and Bat 2 DC outputs to
the respective battery banks, use an appropriate fuse
(40A fuse). Then wire up the negatives (all should be
common). All DC cables should be at least AWG 10-8
(6-10 mmSq). Wire a plug to the AC Live|Earth|Neutral
cable and plug it to a 80V-270VAC (40Hz-70Hz) AC
supply. The charger should turn on and begin charging
both Bank 1 and Bank 2 at the default charging profile
of a sealed lead acid battery (14.4V abs. and 13.6V
float). This profile shall be adequate for most batteries
(please ensure). The charger does not need to be
turned off.
If users wish to install the temperature sensor for a
more accurate seasonal charging rate and for battery
temperature warnings then install onto the negative
terminal of the bank you wish to sensor (typically the
House / Service bank - as depicted).
Optional parts available for this product
1) Analogue battery temperature monitor / trip with
10m off cable. TSAY
2) Digital temperature trip, can be daisy chained and
available in various temperatures. TSD50 TSD60 TSD70
3) Remote control unit. LPCUR

    Fault Finding The primary test the user can do before calling Sterling is to check what your AC input voltage is going into the PCUL. Ensure it is between 80-270VAC. Do the LEDs on the PCUL display then come on? If they do, then measure the DC voltage across the negative and positive terminals of the PCUL.
