Circuit Breaker Operation For Chargers Equipped With Circuit Breakers; Choosing Charging Location; Mounting The Charger; Battery Size Recommendations - Guest Cruising Charger 2632A Owner's Manual

Circuit Breaker Operation for chargers equipped with circuit breakers:

For chargers equipped with circuit breakers, the circuit breaker will trip, or open, during
an over current situation. This can be caused by connecting the charger in reverse
polarity across the battery. To reset the breaker, first disconnect the charger from the
battery, then push the circuit breaker button. Then reconnect the charger to the battery
using correct polarity.
Output Cable Fusing: Guest recommends that all chargers be installed with an
in-line fuse on each DC positive output per ABYC standards.
If the Guest Cruising Series charger does not come equipped with circuit breakers, an
inline fuse must be installed in series with each DC positive output cable to the battery.
This is to prevent catastrophic destruction of the charger in the event of reverse
polarity connection.

Choosing Charging Location:

The charger should have at least eight inches of unobstructed area on all sides of the
unit for effective cooling. The case of this charger will become warm during operation.
Because the charger is convection cooled (airflow over the back of the charger), the
optimum mounting position for the charger is vertical. Mounting on its back on a
horizontal surface may cause the charger to slightly reduce amperage output due to the
thermal protection built in. Do not install the charger on carpeted, upholstered, or
varnished surfaces.

Mounting the Charger:

Use corrosion resistant ¼" dia. bolts, backed by a flat washer, and secured to the
1.
mounting surface with a split-ring lock washer.
Hold the charger to the mounting surface and mark the holes.
2.
Remove the charger and drill the mounting holes.
3.
Align the charger and assemble the mounting hardware. Secure.
