locked fan2 protection

The Truecharge™ 2 Battery Charger provides the following optional features:

an optional remote panel3 which can be mounted up to 15 m (50 ft) away for remote control and monitoring.

an optional battery temperature sensor4 (BTS) provides battery temperature voltage compensation from 0 to 70 °C (-13 to 158 °F)

The optional Battery Temperature Sensor (BTS) provides these protection features:

battery under temperature charging protection preventing battery charging at -25 °C or below

battery over temperature charging protection preventing battery charging at 70 °C or higher

charging voltage compensation based on the temperature of the battery the optional BTS is connected to

1.In two specific installation orientations–see Figure 2-2, “Truecharge™ 2 Battery Char- ger Mounting Orientations” on page 2–7.

2.A locked fan occurs when the fan’s blades are hindered from turning by objects such as insects or accumulated debris that can obstruct the fan’s operation. The Truecharge™ 2 Battery Charger sounds an alarm if the fan suddenly stops turning. If the fan does not resume turning after a minute, the charger reports a fault and immediately stops charging. 3.Part number: 808-8040-00
