2.1 Intended Use
The device is a system for trickle charging and recharging batteries in technical
equipment (e.g. starter batteries for portable pumps or generators).
At the output, the system delivers a DC voltage of 12 V and thereby provides con-
sumers with power permanently or for a short time. Charging takes place via a 12
V DC voltage.

5 About this Product
The DC-DC TS battery charger is especially suitable for trickle charging and re-
charging batteries in technical equipment (e.g. starter batteries for portable
pumps or generators). They are designed for charging lead batteries (wet, gel and
AGM) and have overvoltage and overheating protection. When doing so, the
device is fed from the vehicle battery. For faster charging, the battery chargers
can briefly deliver a higher current.
