Instructions importantes concernant la sécurité
Conserver ces instructions. Ce manuel contient des instructions importantes concernant la sécurité et le fonctionnement.
WARNING
Use charger only with an algorithm that is appropriate to the specific attery type and capacity. Other usage may cause
personal injury and damage. Lead acid atteries may generate explosive hydrogen gas during normal charging. Keep
sparks, flames, and smoking materials away from atteries. If this charger is used with lithium-ion type atteries, an
integrated attery management system (BMS) must e used. The BMS must ensure that in all operating modes, the
attery cells are protected from inappropriate levels of voltage, current, temperature, and state of charge. Do not operate
charger in a closed-in area or restrict ventilation. Never charge a frozen or non-rechargea le attery. O serve all attery
manufacturers’ precautions (e.g. maximum charge rates and if cell caps should e removed while charging).
DANGER
Risk of electric shock. Connect charger power cord to an AC outlet that has een properly installed and grounded in
accordance with all local codes and ordinances. A grounded AC outlet is required to reduce the risk of electric shock—
do not use ground adapters or modify the plug. Do not touch uninsulated portions of the output connector or uninsulated
attery terminals. Disconnect the AC supply efore making or reaking the connections to the attery. Do not open or
disassem le the charger. Do not operate this charger if the AC supply cord or DC output cord is damaged or if the charger
has received a sharp low, een dropped, or is damaged in any way. Refer all repair work to the manufacturer, or
qualified personnel. This charger is not intended for use y persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory
or mental capa ilities, or lack of experience and knowledge on electrical systems and attery charging, unless they have
een given supervision or instruction concerning use of the charger y a person responsi le for their safety. Children
should e supervised to ensure they do not play with the charger.
ATTENTION
Utiliser le chargeur seulement avec un algorithme approprié au type et capacitie spécifique de atterie. D´autres types
de atteries pourraient éclater et causer des lessures ou dommages. Les atteries au plom peuvent produire des gaz
explosifs en service normal. Ne jamais fumer près de la atterie et éviter toute étincelle ou flamme nue à proximité des
atteries. Si ce chargeur est utilisé avec des atteries au lithium-ion, un système de gestion des atteries intégrés (BMS)
doit être utilisé. Le système de gestion des atteries doit assurer que dans tous les modes de fonctionnement, les cellules
de la atterie sont protégées contre les niveaux inappropriés de tension, de courant, de température et d'état de charge.
Fournissez une ventilation adéquate du chargement. Ne jamais charger une atterie gelée. Prendre connaissance des
mesures de précaution spécifiées par le fa ricant de la atterie, p. ex., vérifier s´il faut enlever les ouchons des cellules
lors du chargement, et les taux de chargement.
DANGER
Risque de décharge électrique. Ne pas toucher les parties non isolées du connecteur de sortie ou les ornes non isolées
de la atterie. Toujours connecter le chargeur à une prise de courant mise à la terre. Déconnectez la source AC avant
de faire ou défaire les connections à la atterie en chargement. Ne pas utiliser le chargeur si le cordon d’alimentation
AC est endommagé ou si le chargeur est a îmé suite à une chute ou autre indicent. Ne pas ouvrir ni désassem ler le
chargeur – référer toute reparation aux personnes qualifiées. Cet appareil n’est pas destiné à un usage par des
personnes (dont les enfants) avec des facultés motrices, sensorielles ou mentales réduites, ou ayant une expérience et
des connaissances insuffisantes, à moins qu’elles sont sous la supervision ou reçoivent les instructions sur l’utilisation
de l’appareil d’un répondant garant de leur sécurité. Les enfants devraient être surveillés afin qu’il ne jouent en aucun
temps avec l’appareil.

Safe Operating Instructions
 The charger contains up to 25 selecta le charging profiles stored in its internal memory to
charge atteries. These profiles are specific to each manufacturer and model of attery. Your
equipment supplier or charger distri utor is responsi le for ensuring the active charge profile
matches the attery pack charging requirements. Contact them with any questions a out
which profile to select for each attery pack.
 The charger may ecome hot during charging. Use hand protection to safely handle the
charger during charging.
 To maintain safe operations, the unit automatically reduces its output power if the
temperature rises a ove set thresholds, or if the AC input voltage is too low. The charger will
also reduce output power if it detects that the attery pack is damaged.
 If power is interrupted, and then returns, the charger will start and continue to operate without
hazard to the user, or damage to the atteries.
 Unplug the charger from oth AC and DC sources when cleaning, moving or conducting any
maintenance or repair on the charger. No user servicea le parts inside. Do not remove the
cover due to the risk of electrical shock.
 Do not expose charger to oil, dirt, mud or direct heavy water spray when cleaning the vehicle
or machine.
 If the detacha le AC input power cord set or DC output cord is damaged, do not use the
charger until they are replaced with cord sets appropriate to your region and application.
 When mated with a Delta-Q sealed AC cord, the charger meets IP66 specifications, making
it dust-tight and protected against powerful water jets. If a cord set with an unsealed connector
is used, the plug and connector must e periodically inspected to ensure the contacts are
clean and dry.
 If this charger is provided with an AC cord set and the power plug does not match the
power outlet, contact the equipment manufacturer, distri utor or Delta-Q Technologies for
the correct AC cord set terminating with a 3-prong plug suita le for your regions’ grounded
power outlet.
 In North America (and other 120V AC regions), the AC cord must e a 3 conductor UL
Listed/CSA approved detacha le cord set at least 1.8m in length (≥ 6 feet), minimum 16AWG
and rated SJT, 105C min.; terminated with min. 125V, 13A or greater connector.
 In Japan, the AC cord must e a 3 conductor PSE approved detacha le AC cord set,
rated 105C, and terminated with 100V, 15A or greater connector.
 In 220-240VAC regions the AC cord must e a 3-conductor safety-approved cord set,
with 1.5mm² conductors(min.), rated appropriately for industrial use. The cord must e
terminated on one end with a grounding type input plug appropriate for use in the country of
destination and oth plug and connector should e rated 250V, 10A or greater.
 Extension cords must e 3-wire cord no longer than 30m (100’) at 10 AWG or 7.5m (25’) at
16 AWG, per UL guidelines.
