2.3.1 VOLTAGE DROP COMPENSATION
The battery voltage s mon tored by means of the Sens ng W res. These w res carry only a small
sens ng current and as such are not affected by the voltage drop exper enced by the h gh current
carry ng battery connect on w res.
Th s prov des for an accurate read ng of the battery voltage and enables the battery charger to
ncrease output voltage to ma nta n the correct charg ng voltage “at the battery term nals” (Max mum
output 29.5 V).
Example:
Float Volta e conf gurat on of the battery charger = 27.4 V
Charger output = 27.4 V
Battery voltage measured by Sens ng W res = 25 V
The battery charger ncreases the output voltage unt l the Sens ng W res measure 27.4 V. The
voltage drop n the charg ng cables s el m nated.

2.3.2 BATTERY TEMPERATURE COMPENSATION
NOTE: For further details of PC Configuration, refer to DSE Publication: 057-159
DSE94xx Battery Charger Series Configuration Suite PC Software Manual
When su tably conf gured, the external PT1000 temperature sensor s used to mon tor battery
temperature. As battery temperature ncreases, the output voltage s lowered as conf gured to su t the
battery requ rements.
For example, the follow ng Temperature to Voltage compensat on curves are used for the pre-set
battery types. For custom battery types, the temperature compensat on curve s user conf gurable.
NOTE: In the below chart, VRLA (Gel), Lead Acid Antimony and Wet Vented are
superimposed on each other for most of the curve.
Calcium and VRLA (AGM) are superimposed on each other for most of the curve.
Example:
A Lead Ac d battery at 40 ºC s charged at 2.18 V per cell.
The same Lead Ac d battery at 0 ºC s charged at 2.30 V per cell.

2.3.3 AMBIENT TEMPERATURE DEPENDENT CURRENT DERATING
The battery charger s rated at full current to 55 ºC. As the temperature ncreases above 55 ºC, the
max mum output current derates to keep the charger w th n operat onal parameters and to prevent
overheat ng of the dev ce. An nternal temperature sensor s used to determ ne amb ent temperature.
2.3.3.1 TEMPERATURE DERATING (AC VOLTAGE BETWEEN 110 V AND 30 V)
Example:
For AC voltage of between 110 V and 305 V, f the amb ent termperature s 73 ºC, the charger s
l m ted to 40% of t’s conf gured current rat ng.
2.3.3.2 TEMPERATURE DERATING (AC VOLTAGE BELOW 110 V AND AMBIENT TEMP BELOW 0 ºC)
Example:
For AC voltage 108 V, f the amb ent termperature s below 50 ºC, the charger s l m ted to 25 A
max mum.

2.6.2 RS48
The RS485 port on the DSE9474 & DSE9484 ser es battery chargers have two uses.
1) Support ng the DSE2541 remote battery charger d splay module.
2) Supports the Modbus RTU protocol for connect on to a Modbus RTU Master dev ce.
2.6.2.1 DSE2 41 REMOTE BATTERY CHARGER DISPLAY
DSE2541 remote battery charger d splay modules
connects to the DSE9474 or DSE9484 battery
charger RS485 term nals.
Th s prov des battery charger operat ng status, alarm
nd cat on, nstrumentat on and control over the
battery charger.
For further nformat on contact
[e-mail].
2.6.2.2 MODBUS RTU
RS485 s used for po nt-to-po nt cable connect on of more than one dev ce (max mum 32 dev ces)
and allows for connect on to PCs, PLCs and Bu ld ng Management Systems (to name just a few
dev ces).
Us ng the DSE Conf gurat on Su te PC Software, Conf gurable Gencomm s used to map
nstrumentat on to modbus reg sters.
One advantage of the RS485 nterface s the large d stance spec f cat on (1.2 km) when us ng Belden
9841 (or equ valent) cable. Th s allows for a large d stance between the battery charger and a PC
runn ng the DSE Conf gurat on Su te software. The operator s then able to v ew the var ous operat ng
parameters.
NOTE: For distances up to 6 m (8 yds) the USB connection method is more suitable and
provides for a lower cost alternative to RS48 (which is more suited to longer distance
connections).
