Battery is Not Charging, Red and Green Indicator is “on”
Confirm all charger cables are installed with the correct polarity connections
at each battery, and that all connections are clean and tight.
Reverse polarity
connections will blow output fuse, resutling in no output voltage.
With the charger on, read DC Voltage at each battery. If any of the readings
are less than 13.0VDC Proceed with the following:
A. Disconnect AC power at the 120VAC outlet.
B. Remove charger cables from each battery.
C. Reconnect AC power and read DC Voltage across each output cable, if
output voltage is approximately 14.5VDC the charger is ok and each battery
should be tested with a hydrometer with the charger and engine off to determine
if one or more batteries have bad cells. (batteries should always be replaced
in sets, and always the same type.)
D. If there is no output when trying to read DC voltage check each output fuse
and replace as needed.
If the DC voltage at each charger output there is less than 14.0 volts contact
ProMariner for product service.
No Red or Green LED Indicator
Check for loss of AC power at the 120VAC Outlet. Confirm GFCI (Ground Fault
Circuit Interrupter) has not tripped. Check with a meter or 120VAC test light
that AC is present at the end or your extension cord.
Confirm all charger cables are installed with the correct polarity connections
at each battery and that all connections are clean and tight.
With the AC power removed and the engine off check the charge level of each
battery with on-board “Push-to-Test” feature as described on page 5. If there
is no charge level indication for a battery, check each battery with a hydrometer
to determine if it has one or more bad cells. (batteries should always be
replaced in sets, and always the same type.)
If everything above checks out ok, contact ProMariner for product service.
General Overview
The ProTournament is an Professional Grade 3 Step Marine Battery Charger that
is pre-wired for easy installation and is 100% waterproof for all fresh and salt
water applications.
The ProTournament’s rugged all aluminum case is designed for superior heat
dissipation, and corrosion resistance. The ProTournament is not filled with epoxy
and is completely serviceable for a lifetime of use. Our advanced electronic
technology yields a compact charger that is typically half the height and weight
of leading traditional chargers. In addition the ProTournament will charge your
batteries to 100% 2 times faster than leading traditional linear chargers without
shutting off prematurely.
Unlike most traditional linear chargers that under perform when low AC power
cord voltage is present as sometimes seen with use of extension cords at docks,
lodging sites or at home. The ProTournament series will provide 100% of its
charging output even with AC power cord voltage as low as 90VAC.
The ProTournament’s "Distributed On-Demand ™ 3 Step Charging" technology
provides completely isolated charging outputs that will automatically sense and
distribute its full rated charging output of 10, 15, or 30 amps (model specific) to
any one bank or combination of all banks.
Easy to use at a glance LED indicators will provide you with the charge status
of each battery as well as what mode the charger is operating in.
The ProTournament is available in 3 models and can be used in 12, 24, and 36 volt
configurations without rewiring or switching. Just attach the output cable
terminals as illustrated in the installation section of this manual.
The ProTournament has been designed to give you and your batteries a lifetime
of professional performance.

Faster Charging
100% Charge Guaranteed
ProMariner's advanced electronic
technology will deliver 2 times the
amps to your batteries in the same
amount of time when compared to
leading traditional linear chargers.
That means the ProTournament will
charge your batteries twice as fast.
