SmartCharge Automatic battery chargers provide a cost effective solution to most industrial battery charging requirements. Utilising the latest high efficiency switch-mode technology and microprocessor control, the SmartCharge 500-LC is suitable for charging most sealed or flooded batteries and is easily calibrated by the end user to suit the battery type. The multi-stage intelligent charging characteristic ensures accurate and efficient battery charging and is designed for permanent connection to the batteries maintaining them in a fully charged condition without overcharging. The SmartCharge 500-LC is fully protected against overload, reverse battery connection, over voltage and over temperature.

FINISH 

Aluminium / RAL9005 black fine texture 

FAIL ALARM RELAY CONTACT SET (OPTIONAL) 

Volt-free form C relay contact set for signalling of a fault alarm condition. The relay contacts de-energise 60 seconds after a fault occurs. The over voltage protection shutdown alarm de-energises the contacts instantly. 

TERMINATION 

AC input and DC output: 

Connections terminate to rising clamp screw terminals and will accept 6.0mm2 stranded cable. 

Optional fail alarm: 

Connections terminate to rising clamp screw terminals and will accept 2.5mm2 stranded cable. 

Connector ‘C1’ (signals): 

Pins 7 and 8 should be linked when the charger should also function as a PSU. 

NOTE: Reverse battery and battery disconnected alarms are disabled in PSU mode. 

The remaining pins are for expansion modules, communication interfaces, firmware upgrade, etc and should not be used.
