PowerFlex Battery Charging System

Small and lightweight, the SKC PowerFlex
designed for optimal charging of NiCad and NiMH batt ery packs for most SKC
personal air sampling pumps.
Pump-specifi c cables are used to connect batt ery packs to the PowerFlex so that
only one charger is needed for most SKC personal sample pumps (excluding Ex
and ATEX models and models with lithium-ion [Li-Ion] batt eries). PowerFlex
fully charges batt ery packs in 6 to 8.5 hours, and then automatically switches
to a safe pulse trickle charge. An LED indicates batt ery charge status. Batt ery
packs can be charged att ached to or detached from the pump.

Summary of Contents for SKC PowerFlex

  • Page 1 NiCad and NiMH batt ery packs for most SKC personal air sampling pumps. Pump-specifi c cables are used to connect batt ery packs to the PowerFlex so that only one charger is needed for most SKC personal sample pumps (excluding Ex and ATEX models and models with lithium-ion [Li-Ion] batt eries).
  • Page 2 Procedure for PowerFlex Activation 1. Plug the power cable into the power jack on the back of the PowerFlex. Plug the wall cube into a power outlet (100-240 V). If the LED lights red or green upon plugging the charger into the wall outlet (no pump att ached), discontinue use of the charger and return it to SKC for repair.
  • Page 3 Step 1. 6. Once the batt ery pack is fully charged, the LED at the port will change to a steady green to indicate that PowerFlex has switched to a trickle charge to keep the batt ery at full charge.
  • Page 4 PowerFlex Technology Charging NiCad/NiMH batteries is generally accomplished by applying constant current to the battery. SKC PowerFlex Chargers use a technology that is new to industrial hygiene equipment batteries. Refl ex charging delivers pulses of current instead of constant current to charge batteries.
