Automatic Current Limiting
When batteries are severely discharged, some battery chargers can be overloaded
due to the high charging current required. The Auto Charge 35/10 contains an
automatic current limit. This circuit limits the output current to the rated 35 amperes
when charging a deeply discharged battery or if the starter cranks the engine while
charging. The current limiter thus eliminates the need for an ignition interlock
circuit.
Battery Saver & Indicator
A 10 ampere BATTERY SAVER is built into the charger. When connected as
shown in the installation wiring diagram, loads on the battery such as radios and
rechargeable hand lights are automatically switched to the BATTERY SAVER
when power is applied to the charger. The BATTERY SAVER allows more efficient
charging by removing these loads. A BATTERY SAVER overload indicator alerts
the operator that the BATTERY SAVER load has exceeded 10 amperes.
WHEN A BATTERY SAVER OVERLOAD OCCURS:
a. Remove the loads for approximately two minutes
b. Reduce the load to 10 amperes or less
c. Reapply the load to the BATTERY SAVER
No fuses are required or provided as the BATTERY SAVER contains an automatic
circuit breaker.
