  • Page 3: Important Safety Instructions

    1. Important Safety Instructions Please read this operation manual carefully. It offers very important safety instructions, installation and operation guide, and ensure your equipment with best performance and prolong the service life of your equipment. When working with any battery system, be sure you have the necessary tools and safety equipment, including but not limited to: insulated tools rubber apron and gloves...
  • Page 4 Warning - Do not remove the components of the battery as it contains electrolyte that may cause injury to the human body. Warning - Battery may cause short circuit. Please remove any watches and jewelry during replacement of the battery, and operate with tools with insulated materials.
  • Page 5: Battery Storage And Using Circumstances

    2. Battery storage and using circumstances Storage If the battery has high temperature or poor ventilation during storage and delivery, self-discharge will be increased. Therefore, keep good ventilation and keep away from fire, flame, water and heat supply etc. When storing the battery, disconnect charger and load, Store in dry and cool conditions.
  • Page 6: Using Conditions

    Float charge (25 ℃ limited current ≤0.30C , voltage 2.23~2.27V/cell Equalizing charge (25 ℃ ) : limited current ≤0.30C , voltage 2.35~2.40V/cell Mixing batteries: Do not mix new and old batteries, batteries from different manufacturers, if required consult Santak technical support.

    Do not store after discharge, re-charge immediately. 5.3 Charge 5.3.1 Float charge Charge parameter Charge voltage: 2.25V/cell(25 ℃ The maximum charge current: 0.30C Temperature compensation coefficient: -3mV/cell Total variation range of charge voltage: ±0.02V/cell Note: 1. All cell/bloc voltages of a battery group have a little difference at the beginning of use, half year later they become matched.
  • Page 11 Note: Charge time is the time when terminal voltage reaches value as the above table shows during charging at a constant 0.30C (A) or less. If the charge time is over the time as above table, it will cause over charge, which will shorten the life of the batteries;...
  • Page 12 one of the below listed condition, it can be regarded as the charge end point. a) Charged value is not less than 1.2 times of the released value. b) The current is less than 0.005C A (C = rated capacity of the battery) during the final period of charging.
