INTRODUCTION
The LifeSpeed IQ
TM
range of chargers is designed to recharge
24 V, 36 V, 48 V, 72V or 80 V batteries with 3-phase mains
supply. The micro processor-controlled unit automatically
recognises the battery (voltage, capacity, charge level, etc.)
and very effectively analyses its condition for optimum
handling. Several charging profiles are available (vented
lead/acid batteries, Hawker

This technical manual.
MECHANICAL INSTALLATION
The charger is intended to be floor standing and must be
installed in the vertical orientation. The distance between
2 adjacent chargers should be at least 0.3 m.
See paragraph Recommendations and avoid areas where
the chargers may be splashed with water, or saline
environments.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
3-phase input
Connection to the mains supply is 400V AC 3-phase and
must be connected using a suitable plug and adequately
sized circuit breaker (not included). Current requirements in
Amps are indicated on the charger information plate.
Battery output
It is essential to ensure correct polarity. However, reversed
polarity will result in blowing the output fuse, inability to
charge and the fault code DF2 will be displayed. See Fault
Codes.
Connection to the battery should be done using the cables
supplied:
•
RED cable: battery POSITIVE.
•
BLACK cable: battery NEGATIVE.
