Chargers

 INPUT
Both chargers are set to the mains input as shown below. Adjustments may be made by tapping on the main
transformer T1.
INPUT VOLTAGE: - 380V + 10% VARIATION, 50 HZ, 3 PHASE, 4 WIRE.
 CHARGERS
Each charger is a 110 VDC 10A consist of a double wound mains input transformer, a full wave silicon
bridge rectifier, AC and DC fuse protection. Both chargers are open and short circuit proof and have a battery
low volts protection circuit to prevent a flat battery receiving maximum charge initially which could result in
buckled plates.
FLOAT VOLTAGE: - Both chargers set to 130V DC
BOOST VOLTAGE: - Both chargers set to 147V DC
MAXIMUM OUTPUT CURRENT:- Both chargers set to 10A DC @ 92V DC.
Output voltage limits will be maintained for a ± 10% variation in mains voltage and the current is set to 100%
of rated output.
 BATTERIES
Each battery set, consisting of 92 x 33Ah Nickel Cadmium cells, is situated on a double row, double tier stand
constructed from impregnated Iroko hardwood and coated with polyurethane varnish for protection against
electrolyte spillage. Each battery and stand is supplied with a fuse box which contains the battery fuses. Each
battery set is supplied complete with all necessary links and fittings, filler nozzles, instruction cards,
hydrometer, thermometer and miring equipment.
 DISTRIBUTION
The DC distribution consists of five double pole fused output ways. Each way has 32A rated fuses and are to
be connected as below:-
