BATTERY CHARGER DETAILS

The following mains powered battery chargers are available:
§
UK plug style
§
Euro plug style
§
USA plug style
These chargers are intended for use with the AP800-BDC or AP800-9W-BDC combined adaptor
cables (see section '7.2 Combined Data/Charger Adaptor Cables ').
Alternatively, the user may make their own charger arrangements. The recommended battery
charger supply voltage is +12 V DC to +15 V DC, at 200 mA.
Lower or higher input voltages will reduce the battery recharging rate:
§
below about 11 V, the battery may not recharge at all;
§
above about 16 V, heat dissipated in the regulator may switch off the higher recharge
rate and even prevent recharging altogether.
The charge current is internally regulated by the Ap890 so that a battery pack will completely charge
in about 15 hours, but may be continuously 'trickle-charged' if required.
N.B. The Ap890, when used with a battery pack, is not designed to be charged directly from a
vehicle starter battery.

EMC STATEMENT

The Ap890 is fully EMC (Electro-Magnetic Compatibility) compliant and is CE marked accordingly. A
Declaration of Conformity, in accordance with the EMC Directive 89/336/EEC (and as amended) is
available from Able Systems on request.
7.5

EMC CAUTION

System EMC compliance remains the responsibility of the system designer. It is recommended that
screened cables are used; earthing arrangements will depend on the application. Further advice is
available from Able Systems on request.
