Before installing your Delta-Q Technologies battery, please review and follow these safety guidelines. HIGH VOLTAGE SAfETy WARNING: This product can contain potentially lethal levels of voltage. Exercise extreme care when working with the equipment. WARNING: DO NOT open the case of the charger.
ELECTRICAL SAfETy INfORmATION DANGER: Risk of electric shock. Connect charger power cord to an AC outlet that has been properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances. A grounded AC outlet is required to reduce the risk of electric shock. Do not use ground adapters or modify the plug.
BATTERy SAfETy INfORmATION WARNING: Use the charger only with an algorithm that is appropriate to the specific battery type and capacity. Other usage may cause personal injur y and damage. Lead acid batteries may generate explosive hydrogen gas during normal charging. Keep sparks, flames, and smoking materials away from batteries.
pRECAUTIONS HOT SURfACES: During charging, the surface of the charger may become hot to the touch, especially in higher ambient temperatures. This is normal. Avoid touching the surface of the charger. EXTENSION CORD RATING: Extension cords used with the charger must have appropriate safety approvals for the country in which it is used (e.g., Nationally Recognized Testing Laboratories (NRTL) approval in the United...

GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS fOR mACHINE WIRING To reduce electromagnetic interference (EMI) issues, avoid routing power and communications cables together. If they must cross, it should be at right angles, to minimize EMI coupling. If these cables must be run together, keep the cable lengths as short as possible.
Page 25
Install the overcurrent protection as close to the battery as possible, to provide adequate protection. IC Series chargers have built- in overcurrent protection on both the AC input and the DC output. ELECTRICAL INSTALATION...
Cables and cords used to secure cables should be rated to at least 105°C (221°F). Delta-Q Technologies offers cable clamps and sealed, locking AC cables to provide improved system robustness. The IC650 charger provides a channel...
