Introduction
1.5.1 Battery Temperature Sensor
A plug-in external Battery Temperature Sensor (BTS) is provided
for units with the battery charger feature. When installed, the BTS
automatically adjusts the battery charger’s BULK, ABSORB, and
FLOAT voltage set-points (based on temperature) for better charg-
ing performance and longer battery life. If the temperature sensor is
NOT installed and the batteries are subjected to large temperature
changes, battery life may be shortened.
