SBC NRG+ SERIES BATTERY CHARGER
The long experience we have in the nautical field has given us the ability to evolve the range of SBC battery chargers, now
called NRG+, with superior performance to those currently on the market.
The advantages which the SBC NRG+ battery chargers offer, are:
• Three stage IUoU battery charging.
• High efficiency.
•
Multiple outputs in order to charge more groups of batteries (MOSFET charge separator inside).
• Differentiated charging for open or sealed liquid electrolite, Gel, AGM, Optima
®
, Li-Ion batteries.
• Integrated output fuses inside the battery chargers (for each output).
• Thermal battery protection (with optional sensors).
• Capacity of supplying full power with low AC mains voltage.
• Possibility to connect in parallel up to three battery chargers of the same model for current sharing by means of digital
control.
• Low residual fluctuation on output.
• Universal AC supply input 264 ÷ 83 Vac, 45 ÷ 66 Hz (only models SBC 1100 NRG+ FR and SBC 1200 NRG+ FR).
• Power factor (cos
ϕ
) equal to 1.
• Compatible with the generators.
• Short circuit, overloading, output overvoltage and overheating protection.
• Can work in a wide range of ambient temperatures.
• Variable speed for the cooling fan.
• User interface via LEDs that signal the status, errors and the output current.
• Backlit LCD terminal with multi-language interface (optional).
• Charge is compensated according to the temperature of the batteries (1 sensor supplied; more sensors optional).
INSTALLATION
The installation of the battery charger must be carried out by qualied personnel.
BEFORE USING THE BATTERY CHARGER CAREFULLY READ THIS USER’S MANUAL. IF IN DOUBT,
CONTACT YOUR NEAREST DEALER OR “QUICK®” CUSTOMER SERVICE.

INSTALLATION
INSTALLATION SITE
Install the battery charger as close as possible to the batteries in a dry and airy
spot, to allow the correct operation of the device at full power.
The battery charger can be installed on a horizontal surface or vertical wall paying
attention that the output connector faces downwards.
In case of battery chargers connected in parallel (current sharing mode), install-
ing one next to the other.
The battery charger must be fixed to the support surface with screws strong
enough to support its weight, paying attention that they do not weaken or cause
cracks tothe boat structure.
Vertical installation is recommended since the natural convection of the heat will
favour the cooling of the device.
The perimeter of the battery charger (excluding the support base) must be kept at
a distance from walls or objects by a minimum of 5 cm.
WARNING: the battery charger must be used only with re-chargeable lead/liquid electrolytic batteries (open or
sealed), Gel, AGM, Optima
®
, Li-Ion.
WARNING: the battery charger can not be used to recharge non rechargeable batteries.

INSTALLATION
EQUIPMENT SUPPLY
The equipment already includes a AC power cord. For connections to an AC mains see fig.1A.
Before powering up the battery charger check that the power supply voltage, described on the rating label (fig.1B), corre-
sponds to that supplied by the AC mains.
An overvoltage category III switch must be installed in the electrical circuit for the sole use of switching the equipment
ON/OFF.
The connections to the AC mains must be carried out according to local electrical codes.
WARNING: before connecting or disconnecting the battery charger’s AC cord from the AC mains, please make sure
it is disconnected by bipolar switch.
Before connecting or disconnecting the DC wires from the battery charger’s output terminals, please ensure that the
device is disconnected by means of bipolar switch, from the AC mains and by means of a battery isolator from the
batteries.
WARNING: in cases where the AC power cord could be damaged, have this changed by a “Quick
®
” service centre.
In order to avoid accidents, the equipment must only be opened by authorised personnel.

BATTERY SWITCHES
WARNING: during charge, batteries can generate explosive gases, therefore avoid sparks or naked flames. Provide
adequate ventilation to the battery area whilst charging.
WARNING: before connecting the batteries check the polarity of the cables from the battery. Reversing the polarity,
could seriously damage the battery charger even if protected by fuses.
