1 Getting Started
Before you begin, take the time to familiarize yourself with the Cautions in Section 2, and read the
installation instructions in Section 4 completely before you install your new SVS-300.
To get your system up and running quickly perform the following steps:
1. Ensure the SVS-300 siting requirements are followed. (Sections 4.5)
2. Connect the 3 phase utility power to the SVS-300, and apply power to the SVS-300. (Sections
4.6)
3. Install the BMID onto the battery pack. (Sections 3)
4. Once the BMID is installed, connect the charger to the battery pack.
5. If your BMID does not come pre-configured, you will need to initialize the new BMID. (Refer to
BMID programming, document #06701)
6. Once the BMID has been properly programmed, the battery pack is ready to begin charging.

2 Safety Precautions - Read Before Using
The SVS-300 is designed with the safety of the user as the highest priority. However, installation
must comply with all local codes, and the following safety precautions must be read and
observed.
2.1 Symbol usage
Throughout this manual, take special note of the information marked with the following symbols:
DANGER
Contains information about safety practices necessary to prevent personal
injury or death.
WARNING
Contains information about safety practices necessary to prevent fire or
equipment overheating.
DANGER
Contains information to prevent shock hazard or possible damage to the
equipment during installation and service.
NOTE: Offers helpful information for installation or usage, but does not contain personnel or
equipment safety related information.
CAUTION
BEFORE
YOU BEGIN
Read all instructions and cautionary markings on the Industrial
PosiCharge™ (SVS-300) Assembly.
Make sure you also read the IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
below.
Be sure to leave these instructions with the installed unit for future
reference.
Only qualified personnel should install, use or service this charger.
Read and understand these Manufacturer’s instructions and your
employer’s safety practices manual.
DANGER
ELECTRIC SHOCK CAN KILL: Touching live electrical parts can cause fatal
shocks or severe burns. The battery terminals are always electrically live,
and the output circuit is live whenever the battery is connected or being
charged. The input power circuitry and internal circuits are live whenever
input power is on. An incorrectly installed or improperly grounded charger is a
hazard.
The unit must be grounded properly with a grounding conductor of size equal to or larger than
that recommended by local electrical codes or the installation section of this manual.
Do not touch the uninsulated portion of the output battery connector or an uninsulated battery
terminal.
Only qualified service personnel may remove the front or back panels on the SVS-300. There
are no user serviceable parts inside. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Opening
the system or attempted installation or repair by other than qualified service personnel voids
the warranty.

SVS-200 Installation, Operation and Maintenance
IMPORTANT INFORMATION –SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
20153-W-03-01 3 Webasto Charging Systems, Inc.
Disconnect battery charger from input power and battery connections before installing or
servicing. Lockout/tagout input power according to OSHA 29 CFR 1910.147.
Do not expose to rain or perform installation/service/repair work when in standing water.
A Charge can be stopped by disconnecting the output cable connector or by pressing the stop
button on the front panel. The SVS-300 is designed to automatically stop a charge event to
prevent arcing or burning of the charger connections in the event of a hot disconnect.
The charging cables must be sized for the full rated current of the SVS-300, and inspected
frequently for wear, cuts and abrasion. Do not use worn, damaged, undersized, or poorly
spliced cable.
The SVS-300 charging connector is subject to normal wear and tear, and may be damaged by
misuse or abuse. Frequently inspect the connector for cracking, pitting of contacts, fraying of
wires or signs of connector fatigue. A damaged charging connector should be replaced
immediately.
WARNING
OSHA INSTRUCTION STD 1-11.4
OCTOBER 30, 1978
4. Action
“Battery charging” areas where power industrial truck batteries are charged
only—no maintenance is performed, batteries are not removed from the
trucks and no electrolyte is present in the area—are not subject to the
requirement of 29 CFR 1910.178 (g) (2). The charging areas shall be in
compliance with 29 CFR 1910.178 (g) (1), (8), (9), (10), (11) and (12).
Personal protective equipment shall be used when and where required.
Do not install or place unit on, over or near combustible surfaces.
Do not install unit near flammables.
Do not block air intake or exhaust.
Ensure that the Battery Monitor/Identifier (BMID) is properly installed according to the BMID
installation instructions.
Replace blown fuses only with same type and rating of fuse.
Do not overload building wiring - be sure power supply system is properly sized, rated and
protected to handle this unit. Use only on circuits provided with the minimum wire size specified
in the installation section.
Protective bollards or Armco barriers should be installed where charging equipment location is
subject to damage from vehicle activity.
Do not install unit where it will be exposed to direct sunlight.
To avoid shock hazard, only install cables approved by PosiCharge™for indoor use.
Do not subject the cable or coupler to damage or stress. Do not step on the coupler cable.
Do not hang from the coupler cable.
Do not disassemble the SVS-300.
Follow the National Electrical Code (NEC) and local codes. NEC and local codes take
precedence. If any instructions in this manual conflict with NEC or local codes, contact
Webasto Charging Systems, Inc. for further information.

2.2 Technical Support
This manual is intended to provide an authorized, fully trained installation technician with the
information and guidance necessary to safely install the SVS-300 equipment.
All non-standard tools are listed in 2.4. If parts or tools are needed in addition to those listed in
this manual to perform service, this service is outside the scope of this manual and PosiCharge
should be contacted directly for further assistance.

3 System Description
The keypad and display provide the user interface to the charger. The display constantly updates
the charger and battery status, and allows access to the programming menus through the keypad.
Four (4) status LEDs indicate when a charge is in progress, at 80% complete, fully charged, or in
equalization. A fault/warning LED serves to alert the user to fault conditions.
The SVS-300 works with a small monitoring device mounted on the battery called the battery
monitor/identifier (BMID). As shown in Figure 3- 1, when a vehicle equipped with a BMID
connects to the charger, the charger communicates with the BMID to ensure optimal charging.
Figure 3- 1 Components of the Charging System
Typically, the battery dealer or another authorized service technician will install the BMID on the
battery and configure it before delivery to the customer. BMIDs may also be configured on site
through the charger front panel (see the “BMID Programming Manual”).
Many different sizes and types of industrial battery packs may be charged with the SVS-300.
Choose the correct BMID and BMID programming for the nominal voltage and size of your pack.

5.3 Charging
Step 1: Connect battery to charger
To start charging, simply connect the battery to the charger. Once the charge starts, and the
“Charging” screen is displayed, the current is ramped up from zero to the target start current.
Figure 5- 2 Connecting Status Screens
The display screen will periodically update the charging data as the charge progresses. In
addition, the front panel has several status LEDs which indicate the current status of the
battery under charge, and whether it is scheduled for an equalization charge.
