Mains connection
Dangers from
mains current
and charging cur-
rent
Dangers from ac-
id, gases and va-
pours
Devices with a higher rating may affect the energy quality of the mains due to
their current consumption.
This may affect a number of types of device in terms of:
- connection restrictions
- criteria with regard to the maximum permissible mains impedance *)
- criteria with regard to the minimum short-circuit power requirement *)
*) at the interface with the public grid
see Technical Data
In this case, the plant operator or the person using the device should check
whether the device may be connected, where appropriate by discussing the
matter with the power supply company.
NOTE! Ensure that the mains connection is earthed properly
Anyone working with chargers exposes themselves to numerous dangers e.g.:
- risk of electrocution from mains current and charging current
- hazardous electromagnetic fields, which can risk the lives of those using
cardiac pacemakers
An electric shock can be fatal. Every electric shock is potentially life threaten-
ing. To avoid electric shocks while using the charger:
- do not touch any live parts inside or on the outside of the charger.
- under no circumstances touch the battery poles
- do not short-circuit the charger lead or charging terminals
All cables and leads must be secured, undamaged, insulated and adequately
dimensioned. Loose connections, scorched, damaged or inadequately dimen-
sioned cables and leads must be immediately repaired by authorised person-
nel.
Batteries contain acid which is harmful to the eyes and skin. During charging,
gases and vapours are released that can harm health and are highly explosive
in certain circumstances.
- Only use the chargers in well ventilated areas to prevent the accumulation
of explosive gases. Battery areas are not deemed to be hazardous areas
provided that a concentration of hydrogen of less than 4 % can be guar-
anteed by the use of natural or forced ventilation.
- Maintain a distance of at least 0.5 m (19.69 in.) between battery and
charger during the charging procedure. Possible sources of ignition, such
as fire and naked lights, must be kept away from the battery
- The battery connection (e.g. charging terminals) must not be disconnect-
ed for any reason during charging
- On no account inhale any of the gases and vapours released
- Make sure the area is well ventilated.
- To prevent short circuits, do not place any tools or conductive metals on
the battery

Safety measures
in normal opera-
tion
- Battery acid must not get into the eyes, onto the skin or clothes. Wear pro-
tective goggles and suitable protective clothing. Rinse any acid splashes
thoroughly with clean water, and seek medical advice if necessary.
- Protect batteries from dirt and mechanical damage.
- Store charged batteries in a cool place. Self discharge is kept to a mini-
mum at approx. +2 °C (35.6 °F).
- Every week, perform a visual inspection to ensure that the acid (electro-
lyte) level in the battery is at the Max. mark.
- If any of the following occurs, do not start the device (or stop immediately
if already in use) and have the battery checked by an authorised work-
shop:
- uneven acid levels and/or high water consumption in individual cells
caused by a possible fault.
- heating of the battery over 55 °C (131 °F).
While the charger is in operation, keep all persons, especially children, out of
the working area. If, however, there are people in the vicinity,
- warn them about all the dangers (hazardous acids and gases, danger
from mains and charging current, etc.),
- provide suitable protective equipment.
Before leaving the work area, ensure that people or property cannot come to
any harm in your absence.
- Chargers with a ground conductor must only be operated on a mains supply
with a ground conductor and a socket with a ground conductor contact. If the
charger is operated on a mains supply without a ground conductor or in a
socket without a ground conductor contact, this will be deemed gross negli-
gence. The manufacturer shall not be held liable for any damage arising
from such usage.
- Only operate the charger in accordance with the degree of protection shown
on the rating plate.
- Never operate the charger if there is any evidence of damage.
- Arrange for the mains cable to be checked regularly by a qualified electrician
to ensure the ground conductor is functioning properly.
- Any safety devices and parts that are not functioning properly or are in im-
perfect condition must be repaired by a qualified technician before switching
on the charger.
- Never bypass or disable protection devices.
- After installation, an accessible mains plug is required.

The device must only be operated in a hori-
zontal position.
The air surrounding the charger must be kept free from battery acid vapour as far as pos-
sible. You should therefore avoid setting up the charger directly above the battery being
charged.
Cooling air
The charger must be set up in such a way that the cooling air can flow unimpeded through
the vents in the housing that are provided for that purpose. Ensure that there is always a
minimum of 20 cm (7.87 in) of space around the air inlets and outlets. The surrounding air
must be free from
- excessive dust content
- electrically conductive particles (carbon black or swarf)
- heat sources
Cooling air is drawn in and flows out as indicated by the arrows in the following illustrations.
If the chargers are arranged in a line one behind the other without being offset, the space
between the chargers must be as follows:
- Minimum distance 20 cm (7.87 in)
