Kussmaul Electronics 091-9-1200 - Manual (Page 3)

Remote Battery Charge Condition Indicator:
This indicator shows the charge condition of the battery in 10-levels from “LOW CHARGE”
to “FULLY CHARGED”. This device indicates a defective battery when a bar graph does
not rise to the “FULLY CHARGED” level after an extended period of charging. Note: If a
battery is being charged with an external load of 4 to 10 amperes across its terminals, the
bar graph may move down 1 or 2 levels. This does not indicate a defective battery.
Pump Output:
The output terminal strip provides an additional output to accomodate a 12VDC air pump,
part # 091-9 air compressor. The air pump output works in conjunction with a front panel
mounted rocker switch. For normal operation, the rocker switch should be left in AC mode,
which means that the air pump works only when shoreline power is supplied to the charger.
With the switch in DC mode the compressor will operate when AC power is ON or OFF.
In either position the compressor operates from the vehicle's batteries, while the charger
automatically recharges the batteries as required.
LED Status Indicators:
• BATTERY CONNECTED: Indicates that a battery of proper polarity is connected
to the charger output terminals.
• FAN ON: Indicates that the fan is operating. Fan operates whenever output
exceeds 10 amperes. Fan turns off when output current decreases below 5
amperes.
• POWER: Indicates that AC voltage is present.
INSTALLATION
1. The Auto Charge 1200 Pump Plus should be installed in a well ventilated area.
2. Mount the charger with the four holes provided.
WIRING
1. Refer to Installation Wiring Diagram.
2. Kussmaul Electronics recommends installing an 80 amp fuse or circuit breaker
protection in line with the battery output. Note: Fuse or circuit breaker protection
should be placed near battery output terminal.
3. Double check all wiring before applying 115 AC volts to input terminal. Verify that
the battery voltage appears at the charger output terminals. Note: A minimum of
6 volts is required to start the charger.
4. Apply 115 volts (shoreline power) to input terminal and observe that the charger is
operating. The Remote Bar Graph need not be connected for the charger to
operate.
