OffDefault electrolyte circulation programs and their relevant parameters can be found in the table below:
In each of these programs, the solenoid valve opens for a time "ON 1" and closes for a time "OFF 1". This process is repeated for the number of times specified under "Repeat". After this number of repetitions has been completed, the process continues with the "ON 2" and "OFF 2" times until charging is completed.
Temperature-controlled charging:
The following settings are available for temperature-controlled charging:
automatic/OFF/requiredAn external temperature sensor is required for certain characteristics. If this type of characteristic is selected in configuration mode, a note is shown indicating that an external temperature sensor is required.
The following characteristics require an external temperature sensor:A note is displayed if a characteristic that requires an external temperature sensor is selected.
Equalising charge
OFFIf a setting for the equalising charge is enabled, a symbol on the home screen next to the set ampere hours or charging time shows whether an equalising charge is being carried out or can be started.
"Delay"
"Charge start delay"If the "Restart charging" option is activated, the charging process is automatically restarted after a fault in the electrical network as soon as the electrical network is available again.
If the "Automatic/continue charging" option is activated, the charging process is automatically continued after a fault in the electrical network as soon as the electrical network is available again.
Calendar
The calendar function allows charging to be started automatically according to the following criteria:Additional settings can be found under the "Calendar" function:
Day Setting 1-5:
The day settings allow up to five different charging start time profiles to be defined with the following settings:
Ongoing charging operations are unaffected by the set time windows.
If, in the example above, a battery is connected at 05:45, the charge end time is governed according to need and is not interrupted by the end time specified for the set time window (06:00 in the example).
If the battery is connected during the "stop" time window, charging is started automatically during the next time window. If charging is started manually during the "stop" time window, charging will always take place using characteristic 1.
A previously created day setting can be assigned to any day of the week.
When the calendar function is active, a calendar symbol (shown here with the number "4" as the current date) appears on the display.
Special Charges
Selecting "Special Charges" allows one or more of the alternative charging types to be performed temporarily.
The "repeat" setting defines how often the alternative charging mode should be performed until the device reverts to the original charging parameters again:

In USB mode, the display shows whether or not a USB flash drive is connected.
The USB flash drive must conform to the following specifications:The I-SPoT VIEWER (www.fronius.com/i-spot) software supports the visualisation and evaluation of data on the USB flash drive.
Only insert the USB flash drive when charging is not in progress or if the charging process has been interrupted.
If the charging process is only interrupted, not completed, it is only possible to read out data. A new update or configuration cannot be loaded.
To start a data download, confirm this again with the "Pause/Start" key. If you do not confirm with the "Pause/Start" key, the download will start automatically after one minute.
A USB flash drive may be connected while charging is in progress, after the "Pause/Start" key has been pressed. However, this can only be used to read out data. An update or new configuration cannot be loaded.
Safely remove
* | If a USB flash drive is connected while charging is in progress, the csv files are saved directly to the USB flash drive. In this case, the folder structure is also created automatically and differs due to the presence of the "Datalog" folder instead of the "Charges" folder. |
If a fault occurs during operation, specific status codes may be displayed. Faults can result from the following:
Battery fault:
If the battery signals a fault, the charger displays this fault as a battery fault including the corresponding fault number for the battery. The respective fault is explained in the battery's Operating Instructions.

In order to connect optional components, it may be necessary to open the housing. The following warning notices must be obeyed:
Danger from electric shocks.
This can result in serious injury or death.
The housing must never be opened by anyone other than a service technician trained by the manufacturer.
The device must be disconnected from the grid before starting any work with the housing open.
A suitable measuring instrument must be used to ensure that electrically charged components (e.g. capacitors) are fully discharged.
Use an easily legible and understandable warning sign to ensure that the device is not reconnected to the grid before all the work has been completed.
Danger due to work that has been carried out improperly.
This can result in serious injury and damage to property.
All work involved with connecting optional components must only be carried out by qualified specialist technicians.
If Installation Instructions or User Information is available for the optional component concerned, all warning notices and instructions therein must be obeyed.
In the case of all optional components with electrical connections, once the connection work is complete, a safety inspection must be carried out in accordance with relevant national and international standards and directives.
Further details on safety inspections can be obtained from your authorised service centre.
They will provide you with any documents you may require on request.
Danger from devices falling or toppling over.
This can result in serious injury and damage to property.
Due to its weight, the device must be secured using suitable fittings to prevent it from toppling or falling over.

Danger from devices falling or toppling over.
This can result in serious injury and damage to property.
Due to its weight, the device must be secured using suitable fittings to prevent it from toppling or falling over.
The wall and floor brackets provided by the manufacturer must be used.
Danger due to the ingress of electrolyte from the battery or due to operation without any back pressure.
This may result in damage to the air pump.
Always set up the charger at least 0.5 m (1 ft. 7.69 in.) above the battery to be charged.
Always use an undamaged connecting hose provided specifically for this purpose to connect the charger's compressed air outlet to the battery.
Danger due to non-observance of the permissible mains voltage tolerance.
This can cause malfunctions and damage.
For the electrolyte circulation option, a restricted mains voltage tolerance vis-à-vis the charger of 207 V to 250 V applies.
The electrolyte circulation option introduces air into the battery through capillary tubes that are provided specifically for this purpose. This allows intensive mixing of the electrolyte to take place. The benefit is the reduced heating of the battery, and consequently longer battery-life, plus reduced water loss during charging.
If a pump fault or leaks in the connection with the battery result in a fault being detected, then the status code "Statecode 14" will appear on the display. One way in which this fault can be indicated is by using an external indicator lamp to show a common error.

Electrolyte circulation air filter insert
The air filter insert for the integrated air pump should be cleaned once a year. In dusty environments, the cleaning interval should be shortened accordingly. The air filter insert must be removed for cleaning. Remove the air filter by levering it out with a slotted screwdriver; then refit it as follows:
Danger from using the air filter with unsuitable chargers.
This can result in damage to property.
Only use the air filter with the chargers provided by the manufacturer for this purpose.
The external start/stop option prevents sparking if the charging plug is disconnected during charging. Special contacts inside the charging plug register a separation from the charging socket. These are leading contacts in relation to the main contacts. This triggers an immediate stop to charging. As a result there is no wear to the main contacts, and this arrangement safeguards more effectively against an oxyhydrogen explosion.
The temperature-controlled charging option always adjusts the charging voltage according to the current temperature of the battery. This results in considerably longer battery-life, especially where batteries are used in cold stores.
The LED strip acts as a status indicator and lights up in the same colours as the display elements on the control panel. An LED strip including a diffuser is installed in the gap between the front wall and upper part of the housing.
In dusty environments, the air filter prevents the inside of the device from becoming dirty. This avoids a possible reduction in power and other problems. Detailed information can be found in the corresponding User Information.
Cleaning interval as required (manufacturer's recommendation: monthly)
The robust wall and floor bracket with integrated cable holder ensures safe installation at the place of use. Detailed information and diagrams can be found in under "Wall and floor bracket" in the "General information" chapter.
A carrying strap makes it easier to move the device.
Using the option box, information on the state of charge of the connected battery can be obtained via an external circuit.
Error messages and additional features such as the Aquamatic control function, external air pump and refill indicator can also be displayed.
The mounting plate may be used as a space-saving floor or wall bracket.
The remote control system allows the device to be fully controlled from a distance of up to 30 m (98 ft., 5.1 in.). This option includes a full control panel in an aluminium housing that provides IP42 protection.
The GatewayLink makes it easy to connect the Gateway on the charger. The Gateway can be connected without opening the charger.
The Gateway is the connecting link between the charger and the network. More detailed information can be found in the corresponding User Information.
An electric shock due to a fault current can be fatal.
