Technical description

5 Technical description
The light weight and compact construction allows the converters to be easily
installed in mobile homes, commercial vehicles or motor and sailing vessels.
The transformers convert a 12 Vg or 24 Vg supply from a car or boat battery to a
stable 12 Vg or 24 Vg voltage for connecting to equipment.
The isolation of the input and output voltages means the output voltage can be kept
stable without interference from the input circuit.
Because the maximum output current is electronically regulated, the charge
converters can be used to charge batteries to generate electricity in cars or on boats.
The devices are equipped with protection against shorting and overloading. If the
protective function triggers, the device switches off and then switches on again
when correctly connected or when the load has been adequately reduced.

1 Output terminals
2 "Power On" LED: There is voltage at the output terminals on the converter.
The converter is ready for use.
3 "Battery Low" LED: The input battery is no longer sufficiently charged.
4 "Overload" LED:
– If a consumer is connected: The converter is shorted or overloaded.
– If connected as a charger: The converter is in the full current charging
phase.
