BATTERY CHARGER AND BATTERY CHARGING. GENERAL DESCRIPTION The battery charger of type No.434 and type No.437 is “fast charger” using two different modes of, charging. Initially the unit will charge with a high current until the battery is charged, and then it reduces to a trickle charge mode until battery is removed. The normal charging time for an empty battery, is approximately 3 hours for charger type 434 and approximately 5 hours for charger type 437. The battery charger is designed not to damage the battery even with long continuous charging. INSTALLATION ‘© The battery charger must be mounted in a vibration free area inside the cab or indoors and be protected against damp, direct sunlight and temperature variations. © Operating ambient temp: 0 to +80 degree Celsius, lower depending on Battery specification, Battery Art No.590 to No.592 and 594 =0 to + 45 degree Celsius. (charger type 434) Battery Art No.593 = 0 to + 45 degree Celsius. (charger type 437) ‘+ The supply voltage to the battery charger should be +10 VDC to +35 VDC - externally fused with 3.0 Amp fuse. ‘Polarity for the connecting cable: Inc Marked Cable = + ‘+ Power consumption for batlery charger: Without battery: = 10-20 mA With battery: © 400md (max) * After connecting the cable connector - Put the cable inside the cable track as illustrated. / N (-) Ribbed (Striped on the surface) c ranean nena ae Lo OPERATION The battery charger will start a charge cycle when a new battery is inserted (green LED starts blinking). When the battery is charged and ready for use (green LED is continuous ON). If the power supply is lost, the battery charger will remember the charging status, and continue with a fast charge ‘mode or trickle charge mode when the power is on again, As a safety precaution the charger will stop charging afier ~3 hours (Type 434) or ~5 hours (Type 437) whether the battery is fully energized or not. The green LED will be continuously ON. Doc.nt : DAI0406031_B.doe 12)There are two LED indicators on the battery charger: RED LED (POWER): Indicates supply power. GREEN LED (CHARGING STATUS): Green LED is blinking fast two | Charger recognition | (Specific for type 437, before it enters times (2H): battery charging mode).

Battery charging via cable control: Ifthe operator is using the cable control facility and the battery is placed in the portable control unit, the battery will be charged automatically. The cable control facility could also be used as a battery charger when the system is not used. Place the battery in the portable control unit (emergency stop pressed) and connect the cable between the portable control unit and the electronic box (emergency stop on the crane released). Charging time is approx. 12-24 hours, dependent on battery type and status The electronic box must be in Remote (LED Power should be illuminated and LED No. 4 should blink), Doc.nr : DATO406031_B.doc 2@)
