outlet areas of 10 ,0 00mm² (1 6in²).
•
Allow adeq uate ventilation around th e cabinet. eg: 1 00mm c learance to t he left and right side panel s for effective fan
cooling.
•
DO NOT mount the DIALOcharge in direct sunlight or in environments with a high ambient temperature, as extreme
temperat ures will cause the DIALOcharge to shut down operation.

CONNECTIONS:
B EFORE MAKING ANY EL ECTRICAL CONNECTIONS, ENSURE THAT THE 240Vac MAINS IS SWITCHED OFF !
AC MAINS Input connection:
The AC mains inlet socket is situated on the lower right of th e fron t panel, and is the Int ernational IEC connector t ype.
The mains cable supplied is fit ted with a standard 3 pin plug, for connection to an Australian GPO and the IEC connector.
♦
If using a GenSet for mains s upply, ens ure that its capacity is at least double the DIALOcharge's input VA rating.
eg: 750VA charger = 15 00VA GenSet minimum
maximum allowable GenSet distortion 16 % THD (Total Harmonic Dist ortion)
Output connection:
The output connect ions are the RED and BLACK binding posts loc at ed on the lower left of the front p anel, labelled POSITIVE
and NEGATIVE respectively.
D1230, D2415, D2430, D4815

Two or more DIALOcharge unit s may be connected in parallel to increas e the charging AMPERAGE capacit y.
You may now individually control eac h charger upto the total maximu m.
SERIES: eg: D1260 : D1260 =
Two or more DIALOcharge unit s may be connected in series to inc rease the c harging VOLTAGE capacity.
You may now individually control eac h charger upto the total maximu m.
The added bonus of mult iple individual DIALOcharge unit s facilitates the use of the unit s separately i f required.
