GENERAL DESCRIPTION This unit is a two stage, constant voltage battery charger with current limiting, current fold back, and automatic temperature compensation of the output voltage. It is protected against shorting the out- put terminals and reversing the output terminals on a battery. Various output cables are available. There is one indicator light.

CHARGING NOTES AND TIPS For safer and more efficient charging, batteries should be charged with higher voltages when cold and lower voltages when warm. This unit incorporates automatic temperature compensation of the output voltage. It will increase the charge voltage in cold conditions and decrease charge voltage in warm conditions.

Check the open circuit voltage of the battery to see if it has any shorted cells - there should be about 2.15 V/cell for a properly charged battery (divide the battery voltage by two to get the number of cells). If the battery voltage looks correct then you may be trying to charge a battery which has too large a capacity for the charger (see charging notes and tips).
