HOW TO USE THE BATTERY CHARGER AP-800
The battery charger is designed to charge only 12V, 24V, 36V, 48V, 60V or 72V
lead (Pb) batteries, depending on the type of charger. Check if the charger and
battery have the same voltage!
Plug the charger (230Vac cable) into the mains.
Switch on the main supply switcher (POWER) on back of the charger.
The device responds with a short beep and all three LED blinks briefly, the
charger is ready to charge.
BLACK on – poll of the battery
RED on + poll of the battery
At correct connection device short beeps and the yellow LED starts blinking.
The battery is charging.
When the battery is full, GREEN LED indicator lights on.
Tip: The battery is fully charged only a few hours after the green LED light is on.
You can use the battery immediately after the green LED flashes when the
charge is up to 90%, but it is recommended at least 1x per month to leave the
battery on the charger to be fully charged.
Warning: If the battery is properly connected and all three LED blinks, but the charger does
not charge, then the battery is over-discharged. Press the "BURST" button on the
front panel of the charger to activate forced charging (instruction- page 6).

CHARGING PROGRAMS
"UNIVERSAL" universal program, used for unrecognized types of batteries
"STANDARD" standard Pd program, used for older types of Pb batteries
"CaCaWET" Pb Ca/Ca program, is used for starting maintenance free batteries
"AGM" Pb with acid swab, used for hermetic AGM batteries
"GEL" Pb GEL electrolyte program, used for hermetic GEL batteries
"LeadCry" Crystal Pb LC (SIPBE) program, used to lead Si crystal battery
"TRACTION" Pb Traction program, used for Traction Lead with liquid electrolyte
SELECTING CHARGING PROGRAM DEPENDS ON THE BATTERY TYPE
To set the correct charging program it is necessary to remove the cover.
There are 4 screws on both sides. Unscrew them. Before that switch off the
charger from the mains or off the main switch. Disconnect the battery from the
charger and wait for all LED on the front panel to turn off. We can choose
between 8 types of lead acid batteries. With the jumper JP1 and JP2 and JP3 set
the program. The choice depends on the battery type.

DESCRIPTION OF CHARGE PHASE
Charge phase: Description:
Bulk BULK CHARGE Charges the battery up to 65%, delivering a lot of energy to
the battery in a short time.
Abso 1 ABSORPTION I The charge is slowed down so that the battery absorbs more
energy. The battery reaches 65..75% of the capacity.
Abso 2 ABSORPTION II Charge current is gradually reduced.
The battery reaches 75..85% of the capacity.
Equal EQUALIZATION At this phase, levels between different filled cells are
equali ed. The battery reaches 90..95% of the capacity.
Float FLOAT CHARGE Keeps the battery at 100% of the capacity without causing
damage to the battery. Also, can not over-charge the battery.

CHARGING DIAGRAM
DESCRIPTION OF THE PULSE BATTERY CHARGING TECHNOLOGY
Pulse charging system is electrode specific charging system; it is new technology of
battery charging. It presents a small revolution on this area, because the results in
practice are drastically better. With this technology is possible very fast and very
precise charging, because only electrochemical condition of battery "dictates" the
charging phase and charging current, which is momentarily correctly for the battery.
When charging with pulse charger AP-800, does not come to the gasification of
the electrolyte and heating up, that destroys (breaks) cell lead-acid batteries. So as a
result, pulse charging majorly prolong battery life and shortens the charging time.
Your experience with this charging method please send to info@eyra elektronika.si.

HOW AND WHEN TO USE THE BURST CHARGING
When charging an overdischarged battery which has a voltage below 6V (at
12V charger), the system does not start charging, even though the charger is
properly connected. In this case, press the "BURST" button on the front panel of
the charger to activate forced charging with the single-pulse. If necessary, press
the button several times, up to 100x, until a short beep is heard and a voltage of
6V is reached at 12V charger (For the other chargers, see table below). From then on the
system automatically starts charging.

WARNING!
•The charger is designed for indoor use (do not expose the charger to rain).
•Charger AP800 8V/1 A can not use unauthorized person!
•During charging ensure adequate ventilation!
•Never hold with hand red and black crocodile + and – and push BURST
button!
•We recommend disconnecting the battery from the car if the CaCaWET or
Traction charging program is used.
•The charger AP-800 has a built-in security feature that prevents the automatic
charging start if charger detects an over-discharged battery. Over-discharged
battery could be in damage. Therefore, the charger will start only if you press
the »Burst button« Sometimes it is necessary to press it several times, up to
100x, until a voltage of 6V is reached at 12V charger (For the other chargers,
see technical data), then the system automatically starts charging. From this
moment on, the user is obliged to control the charging of batteries.
Because in case of a defect on the battery, it can overheat, begin to gasify
and in extreme cases may happen an explosion and /or a fire.
