    DVS 400 Fast Charging System Operation and Maintenance Manual Overview The Dual Vehicle (DVS) Fast Charging System (Figure 1.1) is an advanced charging system that can quickly and safely charge industrial batteries. Figure 1.1. DVS 400 Fast Charging System Charging intelligence is built into the system to make charging extremely simple: just plug in any IPC compatible battery and the system starts charging it correctly.

    DVS 400 Fast Charging System Operation and Maintenance Manual • The charging leads must be capable of the full rated current of the DVS 400, and inspected frequently for wear, cuts and abrasion. Do not use worn, damaged, undersized, or poorly spliced cable.
  • Page 10: System Description

    The keypad and display on the front of the DVS 400 provide the user interface to the charger. The alphanumeric display panel constantly updates the charger and battery status, and allows access into the programming menus through the keypad.

    Charging System dealer. For any other replacement parts, contact customer service directly: Battery Monitor and Identifiers (BMID) Many different sizes and types of industrial battery packs may be charged with the DVS 400 Fast Charging System. Choose the correct BMID for the nominal voltage of your pack.

    Once the system has been properly installed (mechanically and electrically) it is ready to be powered. When you first power up your DVS 400 Fast Charging System, it will perform a lamp test. The display will then show the initial status screen containing the model number and the software version.
  • Page 13: < C H A R G I N G

    At each step, the charger will display the corresponding Status screen (see Figure 5.2). During “Preparing for Charge”, the DVS 400 counts down while preparing to charge. Charging preparation includes measuring the Open Circuit Voltage (OCV) of the battery pack and calculating the State of Charge (SOC) to determine what the initial current should be to charge the pack properly.

    Step 2: Stop Charging Once the battery has been fast-charged to the SOC preset in the BMID, the DVS 400 will stop the charge and illuminate the “Charge Complete” LED. If an equalization charge is scheduled for this battery pack, the Charge Complete will not illuminate until the equalization has been completed.
  • Page 15: Equalization

    DVS 400 Fast Charging System Operation and Maintenance Manual Equalization Proper equalization is necessary for the health of the pack. Too little equalizing may lead to sulfation and decreased capacity, whereas excessive equalizing may lead to high water loss and more maintenance. We recommend equalizing at least once a week, but twice a week is optimal for pack life under continuous use.
