Operating Instructions - Carbest 851001 User Instruction

UK
MPP:
If it is lighting: Proper functioning of the solar controller�
Short flashing: Display of readiness for service in case of missing solar power
(at night)�
No flashing: Installed fuse defective�
Battery Low (yellow):
If it is lighting: Low voltage at main battery I� Voltage <10�5 V
The battery should be recharged as soon as possible!
All pilot lamps (5) are flashing:
The positions of the selector switches »MAIN Battery« are incorrect�
For reasons of safety, the solar controller is switched off� Adjust
the desired battery type according to table 1�

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Lifetime of the battery: Recharge totally discharged batteries immediately!
Sulphation of the lead battery plates due to total discharge is to be prevented by soon
charging, particularly in case of high ambient temperatures� If the grade of sulphation is
not too intensive, the battery can recover part of the battery capacity after several char-
ging/discharging cycles�
Partially Discharged Batteries: In contrast to other battery types, batteries on
lead basis do not have any harmful memory effect� Consequently: In case of doubt,
partially discharged batteries have to be charged fully as soon as possible� Always
store only fully charged lead batteries� Recharge them periodically, particularly in
case of used (older) batteries and higher temperatures�
Keep batteries cool and dry; choose an appropriate location for installation�
In case of insufficient solar power and/or high current consumption, the battery
should be subject to occasional full charging by means of a mains supply charger�
Overvoltage Protection: The 12 V solar controllers protect themselves against con-
nection of excessive battery voltage rates or will be switched off in case of defective
additional charging systems, switching threshold 15�0 – 16�0 V�
Overvoltage Limitation: Sensitive consumers are protected by means of a limita-
tion of the charging voltage to max� 15�0 V during all modes of charging�
Overload | Overheating Protection Solar Controller: The solar controller is
equipped with a double electronic protection against overload and with an automatic
protection against adverse installation conditions (e� g� insufficient ventilation, exces-
sive ambient temperatures) by gradual reduction of the charging capacity�
Voltage Measurement: Measurement of the voltage is to be effected at the battery
and never at the solar controller (loss at the charging cable)�
