INSTALLATION
MOUNTING
The rugged design of the IDC45 affords it to be mounted wherever best suits the
application. By using advanced potting technology the unit is resistant to shock,
vibration, dust and water allows for under-bonnet or in-vehicle installation. Clever
`side extrusions' incorporated within the enclosure allow the unit to be mounted to
flat surfaces as close to the auxiliary battery as possible. It is advisable however to
keep the charger as far away from exhausts, turbo's or any other high temperate
components to ensure improved performance.
WIRING
To make sound electrical connections, battery cables will need to be made to the
correct length. Cable lugs should be crimped or soldered to the stripped battery
cable and then protected with the supplied heatshrink. Butt splices should be used
for cable extension.
Recommended cable size for wiring:
Alternator Input Cable (Red)
Solar Input Cable (Green)
Output Cable (Grey)
Common Ground (Black)
Ignition Override (Blue)
External LED (Pink)
Note the above recommendation is valid for cable length up to 5m.
1. Disconnect the negative battery cable (Earth) from the vehicle's starting
battery or disconnect power to the trailer. Note: To prevent the loss of
vehicle electronic memories, radio presets & security codes, it is recommended
that an "Electrical System Memory Protector" be used.
2. Connect the Auxiliary Battery positive (+) terminal to the Output Cable
(grey colour) from IDC45. Fit a 80A fuse to the cable as close as possible
to the Auxiliary Battery positive (+) terminal.
3. Connect the Auxiliary Battery negative (-) terminal to the IDC45 Common
Ground cable (black colour). Alternatively connect both Auxiliary Battery
negative (-) terminals and IDC45 Common Ground cable to vehicle
chassis ground.
