Setting into operation

Positioning the USN 52R/USN 52L

Using the battery charger

The power supply/charger unit for USN 52R/USN 52L automatically adjusts itself fo the existing supply volt- age in the range from 80 to 250 V.

The connection for the combined power supply/charger unit is at the rear of the instrument (see following figure).

Connection supply/battery charger

When using the power supply/charger unit you are able to simultaneously charge NiCd cells in the USN 52 R and operate the instrument. The power supply/charger unit requires 4 to 7 hours in order to fully charge the NiCd cells.

The green LED indicates that the power supply/charger unit is connected to mains.

The yellow LED of the power supply/charger unit indi- cates the operational status:

LED

Status

LED off

- instrument is switched off

 

- no NiCd batteries in the

 

insturment

 

- instrument is set to AlMn

 

 

LED on

- instrument is switched on

 

- NiCd batteries are being

 

charged

 

 

LED flashes

- instrument is switched off

 

- NiCd batteries are fully

 

charged (trickle charge)

AAttention:

If you have inserted AlMn cells and the switch is set to NiCd, the internal charge of the cells will be isolated. In this case, the AlMn cells will become quickly hot and the pressure in the cells will cause a leakage of electro- lyte after a short period of time. This strongly caustic fluid can damage the instrument!

Only use the batteries that we recommend. There is a danger of explosion if the charger and the batteries are incorrectly used.
