A) INSTALLATIONAND SAFETYGUIDELINES
READTHEFOLLOWING INSTRUCTIONSCAREFULLY
beforeconnecting the dischargertomainsand battery.
•Skilled and authorized personnel onlyshall beallowed to open theBLT160 discharger
•Beforesetting the BLT160 dischargerat work the insulation ofpowercordand charging cablehas
tobe checked.
•Disconnect frommainsbeforeconnecting ordisconnecting the battery orthe battery charger.
•WARNING!! Whilebeing charged batteriesusuallyproduceexplosivegases.It istherefore
highlyrecommended:
a)Nottosmoke in thedischarger whereaboutsand tokeepanyflamesor
sparksaway fromit.
b)Carry outtestactivities/battery and BLT160 useonlyin properly
ventilated placeswhere there isno possibilityofemitted gassaturation.
•WARNING!! The BLT160 dischargersitemustbe chosen carefully,considering thatthe
devicecontainselectricalcomponents,whichproducevoltaicarcs.The dischargermustnot
be exposed torainorsplashed withwater.It mustbe firmlypositioned on flatand solid
floorsand farfromdustyenvironmentsand anyheating sources.The BLT160 discharger
mustnotbe positioned ontosupportsand /orshelvesmade ofwood orotherinflammable
materials.The deviceposition shouldalsopromotethe thermalexchange between the
dischargerand the environmentwhichensuresdevicereliability. Aminimumof1m offree
space has to bemaintained fromitsfrontand rear sides.
•WARNING!! Ensure thatanadequateearthconnection ismade topreventrisksof
electrocution.Check the rating platetoensurethatthe ACinputsupplycorrespondstothe
discharger’sparametersgiven on the rating plate.The ACinputsupplyhastofeaturea
protectivedevice(fuseorautomaticcut-out)complying withEuropean Standards.The
rating ofthe protection fuseorcut-outmustbe atleast10% higherthan the consumed
powerofthe discharger, asindicated on itsrating plate.
Position theBLT160 atleast3metres fromthebatteries toreduce therisks deriving
fromcorrosive gas intake emitted bythebattery.
•WARNING!! Whileoperating,the rearsurfaceofthe dischargercan reachvery high
temperatures. Avoid touching thedischarger surface withoutproper heating
protection and always keep afree space ofatleast1mfromthedevice.
In operating conditions,thepartssignalledwiththisindicatorcanreachthe
temperature of70°C(IEC60417-5041 with atmospherictemperature 50°C)
•The P.B.M.S.r.l.charging devicerequiresno specialmaintenance,exceptforroutine cleaning byblowing
air, whichshouldbe done regularlyand periodicallydepending on the type ofwork place.
Before starting tocleanthedevice,disconnectthepower cablefromthemainsand theconnection
cables fromthebattery.

C) COMMISSIONING AND STARTUP
During installation, orafterchanging installation site, it isadvisableto check theactual ACinputvoltage.
If itistoo high ortoo lowcompared tothe rated values, problems duetodropsorincreases inthe charging
current might arise.
The BLT160 dischargerisusuallypre-set foramainsvoltage range of100 to240VAC, 50/60 Hz
Makesurealsoto earth thedischarger properly.
CONNECTIONSEQUENCE
1. Connect the powercordtomains.
2.Connectthe battery tothe socket, on the leftside,through the connectorsupplied.Payattention tothe
polarity.Forthisconnection useacablesection ofminimum50 squaremillimetreand alength
between 4and 5meters.Do notusereductionsand/orextensions.(Cableswithan higherlengthcould
causefaultsreading data).
3.Connect the battery charger–ifany-tothe right-sided socketof the dischargerbymeansof cableson
issue. Payparticularattention tothe polaritiestomatchcorrectly.

NOTE:
Asforthetechnical terminologyyou will find in thesectionsbelow,
please refer to theGLOSSARYattheend ofthedocument.
STARTSEQUENCE
Beforeproceeding withthe STARTsequence,check the programming ofthe operation parametersset, by
pressing the PRG key:
1)Select the rated voltage (RatV)bymoving the SW4switchtoAUTO.
2) Select the dischargecurrent (DiscI)bychanging the SW3switchposition from10 to160A.
The battery rated Ahs(RatAh)areautomaticallyrecalculated (DiscI*5)and the discharge time(DT)is
set to5h00 minutes.
3)Set the numberoftest cycles(Cycl. No)to3. (A sequenceof3dischargesand 3rechargesis
performed). Ifthe numberisset to0, onlyisasingledischarge performed.
4)Set the STOPvoltage during discharge (STV)to1.70 V/cell.
5)Set the timepauseafterdischarge (PTaD)to30 minutes.
6)Set the minimumcharge timeto10 h00 minutes.
(if, afterthisperiod oftime, the battery Ahsare>=RatAhsthe systemswitchestothe following
stage)
7)Set the maximumcharge timeto20 h00 minutes.
(if, afterthisperiod oftime, the battery Ahsare<RatAhsthe systemstopsforatimeout charge

8)Set the timepauseaftercharge (PTaC)to1hour.
Afterall connectionshavebeen performed,the battery discharge (orcharge)can be started bypressing the P1
button.
Ifthe battery isalreadycharged (all LED’slit)the systemstartsinthe DISCHARGEmode.

d)During the charging process, the Mag% parameterallowstotakeintoaccount the not-unitary
performanceofthe battery recharge (programming page PROG2, see page 6).
The Ahsactuallydelivered tothe battery arecalculated asfollows: AhCar=Ah/ (1+Mag%)
Forexample: withAh=600 and Mag%=5, the AhCharvalue is571. Inordertoreinstate600 Ahsinto

Ifthe CH.Ah>=RatAhcondition isnot reached withinMaxCT, afailureindication isgiven.
The test proceedsanyway. However, the battery might not provide the required discharge Ahsanylonger, thus
