working on the charger.
This manual should be kept safely and consulted before attempting any repairs, because it contains all the information
required to use the appliance.
This document is the property of CRISTEC; all the information it contains applies to the accompanying product.
CRISTEC reserves the right to modify the specifications without notice.
1.1 PRECAUTIONS
Precautions regarding overheating of the appliance
This appliance is designed to be mounted on a vertical wall or partition as indicated herein.
It is imperative that there be a gap of 150mm around the charger. The installer must see to it that the temperature of the air
at the input is lower than 50°C in extreme operating conditions.
Measures should also be taken to allow for the discharge of hot air on either side of the charger.
The charger must not be installed near a source of heat; it should be installed in a well-ventilated area. The charger's air
inlets and outlets must not be obstructed.
Precautions regarding dust, seepage and falling water
The charger should be located so as to prevent penetration of damp, liquids, salt and dust, any of which could cause
irreparable damage to the equipment and be potentially hazardous for the user.
The appliance should be installed in a dry and well-ventilated place.
Precautions regarding inflammable materials
The charger should not be used near inflammable materials, liquids or gases.
The batteries can emit explosive gases: please follow the manufacturer's instructions carefully when installing them.
Precautions regarding accidental earthing leaks
The charger's ground terminal must be earthed and connected before any of the other terminals (see relevant diagram in
the appendix).
The charger must be closed before it is turned on: the cover must be fixed to the charger's body with the screw provided
for the purpose.
Accidental leakage current between phase and earth: standard NFC15-100 should be followed when installing.
Use the services of an electrician or professional installer to make the necessary connections. The charger should be
connected to a system having a 30mA differential two-pole circuit-breaker.
Accidental leakage current between the charge circuit and the earth: accidental current leakage at the earth must be
detected by means of an independent protective device outside the charger (a residual current device or an insulation
detector).
The installer should decide on the rating and nature of the protection according to the risks. Special precautions should be
taken on any installation prone to electrolytic phenomena. Regulations require the presence of a battery cut-off at the
outputs on the + and - poles.
Precautions regarding lightning
In areas highly exposed to lightning, it may be advisable to install a lightning arrestor upstream of the charger to
safeguard it against irreversible damage.
Other precautions
Never attempt to drill a hole in or machine the charger's case: this may damage components or cause metal chips or
filings to fall on the charger's board.
Do not do anything that is not explicitly stated in this manual.
