NOTE: The DSE9000 series battery charger should only be used to charge one battery
bank at a time. It is not recommended to parallel batteries as the tolerance of the batteries
leads to imbalance in their charging.
The DSE9000 battery charger is designed to be mounted within a control panel, on the panel DIN rail
utilising the integral mounts or on a chassis utilising the mounting holes. For dimension and mounting
details, see the section entitled Specification, Dimensions elsewhere in this document.
The DSE9000 battery charger is fit-and-forget. It can be permanently connected to the supply and the
load, with no requirement to disable the charger during times of heavy load (such as engine cranking)
or when the generator is running (even when a DC charging alternator is fitted).
4.1 BATTERY SUITABILITY
The standard charger is factory set by DSE to suit Lead Acid batteries but can be adjusted at the time
of ordering to suit other battery types. Care should be taken to ensure the batteries connected to the
charger are of the correct ‘technology’ to suit the setting of the charger.
For details of other supported battery types and float voltages see the section entitled Specifications,
Part Numbering elsewhere in this document.
