24V 6A charger indicator lights
The charger has 4 light indicators,
each is clearly marked on the label
to show their function (Fig. 53).
Yellow - mains On
This will illuminate when the mains
plug is connected to the mains
supply and the mains is switched on.
Orange - charging
This will illuminate a few seconds
after connection, indicating that
charging of the batteries is taking
place.
Yellow - bulk charge complete
This will illuminate when the battery
is about 85% - 90% charged. This
can be anywhere between 4 hours
and 11 hours after commencement
of charging, depending on the
discharged state of the batteries.
The ‘charging’ light will remain on.
Green - charge complete
This will illuminate when the battery
is fully charged. This can be
anywhere from 8.5 hours to
14.5 hours after commencement of
charging, depending on how
discharged the batteries were.
The ‘mains’ light will remain on.
Please note that after the charge
complete light has illuminated, the
charger will continue to charge the
batteries. However the charging
and ‘bulk charge’ complete light will
not be illuminated at this point.
Following a further period of time
the charger will switch to a ‘float
voltage’ setting. It can therefore be
left on indefinitely.
