For further operating instructions on the
charger:
Read manual for NOVA 150-SR
PLEASE NOTE: It is possible to charge the
battery while it is connected to one or more
active consumers. However, the battery and its
electronics are not designed for this mode of
operation in the long term, so it is
recommended to charge and discharge the
battery separately for normal operation.
7.2 Battery charging times
It takes approx. 8 to 10 hours to charge a
completely empty battery.
The first charging process during
commissioning can be shorter, as the storage
batteries are not delivered completely
discharged.
The charging time depends on various
influences, e.g. the temperature of the battery
or the ambient temperature. Actual charging
time may differ from specified charging time.
For further operating instructions:
Read manual for NOVA 150-SR
