  • Electrical Network: The device is automatic bivolt. Ensure the outlet can handle the current.
  • Cables: Use 50mm² (1/0 AWG) cables for battery connections.
  • Circuit Breaker: It is mandatory to install a 300A circuit breaker near the power supply.
  • Ventilation: Install in a firm, well-ventilated area. Do not obstruct fans or install near vibrating surfaces like speaker boxes.
  • Extension Cords: If used, ensure they meet the minimum gauge requirements (10mm² for 127V, 6mm² for 220V) and do not exceed 10 meters.

Operation and Modes

The device features a Smart Key for control:

  • Flashing 3x: Fixed 13.8V mode.
  • Flashing 2x: Fixed 12.6V mode.
  • Rapid Flashing: Smart Mode active.
  • Protections: The device includes short circuit protection (re-checks every 5 seconds) and over-temperature protection (shuts off output until cooled).

Technical Specifications

The charger is designed for 12V batteries, with optimal performance for battery banks between 60Ah and 2500Ah. It features a maximum output power of 4000W and an average efficiency of 90%.

Practical help

Common problems

Short circuit detected

The power supply automatically shuts off and re-checks the output every 5 seconds.

Over-temperature protection

The device shuts off the output. Wait for the internal temperature to drop; it will return to full power automatically.

Battery not charging / LED blinking slowly

Check if the battery is disconnected or if the battery health is compromised.

Before use

  • Ensure installation is performed by a qualified professional.
  • Verify the electrical network voltage (127V or 220V).
  • Use 50mm² (1/0 AWG) cables for battery connections.
  • Install a 300A circuit breaker near the power supply.
  • Ensure the installation area is well-ventilated and free from direct sunlight.
  • Do not obstruct the fans or ventilation openings.
