The equipment should be used for the designated application only. -
Page 4: Installation And Wiring
2. Installation and wiring 2.1. Installation Find a dry and well-ventilated area to mount the Skylla-IP65 charger and battery. Keep the cable length between the charger and the battery less than 6 meters. The charger may be wall or floor mounted. Always make sure that air may flow freely at the back side of the cabinet. This will improve cooling of the charger and prolong lifetime. -
Page 5: Main Battery Disconnection Sequence
Skylla-IP65 The Skylla-IP65 is NOT protected against reverse polarity of the main battery. ("+" connected to "-" and "-" connected to "+"). Follow the installation procedure. The warranty expires when the Skylla-IP65 becomes defective due to reverse polarity. Disconnect the mains supply before making or breaking connections to the main battery. -
Page 6: Input/Shore Current Limit
Skylla-IP65 current of one charger may differ from another charger although connected in parallel.In case of using remote sensors (voltage and/or temperature), the remote sensor needs to be connected to one of the parallel operating chargers. All other chargers will share the information via the CAN interface. -
