EMPERATURE SENSOR
The operating voltages for lead batteries vary depending on the temperature.
A temperature sensor is optionally available to correct the battery voltage
and guarantee an optimum charge for whatever battery temperature. The
correction factor given by the temperature sensor is set by parameter {10036}.
Reference no. for the temperature sensor (including a 5m cable): BTS-01.
Dimensions: H x L x l / / 58 x 51.5 x 22mm.

9.2.1 Connecting the temperature sensor (BTS-01)

The optional temperature sensor BTS-01 is supplied
with a 3m cable fitted with RJ11/6-type plugs. It
may be connected or disconnected at any time
(even when the device is operating) using the
corresponding socket (6) marked "Temp. Sens." on
the VarioTrack. Plug the connector into the socket
(6) until it clicks in. The temperature sensor case
may simply be stuck onto the battery or directly
next to it. The temperature sensor is automatically
recognised and the correction of the voltage
thresholds applied immediately. If a BSP battery
probe next to the battery is used, a BTS-01 is not
necessary. The BSP module is fitted with a
temperature sensor. If both elements (BTS-01 and
BSP) are present, only the BTS-01 is taken into
account to correct the battery temperature.
9.3 A
UXILIARY RELAY MODULE
By connecting the external auxiliary relay module to the VarioTrack, plug
(6) provides the solar charge controller with 2 additional relays. If the plug
(6) is already occupied by the BTS temperature sensor, you have to unplug
it to connect the ARM and thereafter plug the BTS in the free slot of the
ARM.
Each auxiliary relay has change-over contacts with programmable
activation. The maximal authorized currents and voltages for these
contacts are 16A for 230VAC/24Vdc and 3A for 50Vdc. When a contact
is activated, the corresponding LED lights up.
There is no dedicated function assigned to these relay. To assign/program
functions to these auxiliary contacts, use the remote control RCC-02/03. A
description of the necessary parameters is listed in the programming section chap. 8.4.11 of this user
manual.
The module is to be mounted on a DIN rail and is delivered with a 5 metre connection cable.
Cable-glands that are not in use must be properly closed. If this instruction is not respected,
the equipment loses its degree of protection (IP54) and dust or small animals may enter the
equipment causing significant damage which is not covered by the warranty.
