Dismantling Components
7.5.2 Supercharger Systems
For Acorn 80 rail systems with a total rail length greater than 10 metres a high power charging system is fitted to
ensure the rapid recovery of the batteries during the re-charge cycle.
The high power charging system consists of a charger (part number 1021312) and a main pcb (part number
1231457).
The parts from the standard charging system, using either the standard power supply (part number 1020998) or
the European power supply (part number 1020103) and the high power charging system are not interchangeable.
If the high power charger pcb is fitted to a Acorn 80 that has the standard power supply unit (1020998) or a
European power supply unit (1020103) then there will be no regulation of the charge voltage to the batteries and
the batteries will be damaged beyond repair.
If a standard pcb (part number 1231366) is fitted to a Acorn 80 that has a high power charger fitted then the
pcb will attempt to regulate the charge to the batteries and so the benefit of the high power charger will be lost
and this will lead to a reduction in battery performance.
