Summary

Warnings and Safety Notes

Product Use Restrictions and Supervision

This product is not for children under 14 and requires supervision for individuals with reduced physical or mental capabilities.

Environmental and Operational Safety

Protect the charger from dust, damp, and heat. Ensure adequate ventilation and placement on a heat-resistant surface.

Connection and Output Safety

Avoid modifying outputs and connections. Never leave the charger unsupervised or connect multiple batteries to one output.

Incompatible Battery Types

Do not connect incompatible batteries like >10 cell Ni-Cd/NiMH, >12V lead-acid, Li-Ion, or faulty/non-rechargeable batteries.

General Notes on Using the Charger

Charging Process and Calculations

Understand charge quantity (current x time) and standard charge current (1/10 capacity). Follow manufacturer guidelines.

Test Charges and Connection Advice

Perform test charges to verify termination. Ensure firm connections and correct output selection for safe charging.

Battery Handling and Charging Best Practices

Charge Lead Requirements

Use adequate conductor cross-section charge leads, not exceeding 30 cm, with good quality connectors for optimal performance.

Charging Transmitter Batteries

Charge transmitter batteries via integral socket on outputs 2 or 4-7. Remove battery from compartment and set transmitter to 'OFF'.

Recommended Charge Leads and Polarity

Charge Lead Identification

Use genuine Graupner or GM-Racing charge leads with matching connectors and correct polarity for various battery types.

Charger Controls and Maintenance

Controls and Connections Overview

Features include Euro power plug, POWER LED, 7 output ports with 4mm banana plugs, and charge function LEDs.

Cleaning and Maintenance

The charger is maintenance-free. Clean with a dry cloth, avoiding dust, dirt, damp, and cleaning agents.

Rechargeable Battery Handling Notes

Small Cell Packs and Termination

Automatic termination may be unreliable for 1-4 cell packs. Perform monitored test charges to verify reliable termination.

Battery Performance and Storage

Warm batteries perform better. Avoid overcharging/deep-discharging. Store batteries charged and check charge state periodically.

Battery Purchase and Charging Strategy

Purchase quality batteries. Charge new packs at low rates initially and gradually increase current.

Advanced Battery Charging and Disposal

Overcharging and High Current Effects

Overcharging reduces capacity. High current charging/discharging shortens pack life. Respect manufacturer limits.

Battery Safety and Ventilation

Protect batteries from vibration and shock. Ensure good ventilation as batteries can generate explosive gas.

Battery Disposal Guidelines

Dispose of exhausted batteries at designated recycling points, not domestic waste. Retail outlets should accept them.

Delta Peak Charge Termination

Delta Peak Principle Explained

Automatic termination uses Delta Peak (Delta-V) detection. Peak sensitivity is shown as delta V in the graph.

Introduction and Charging Overview

Charger Purpose and Features

Charger for Ni-Cd, Ni-MH, and lead-acid batteries. Protected against overload/short-circuit. Features 7 outputs with indicator LEDs.

Output Port Specifications

Details charge current and battery type compatibility for each of the 7 output ports.

Delta-V Detection for Outputs 1-3

Outputs 1-3 use Delta-V detection for charging control. A voltage drop triggers a trickle current for maximum charge effect.

LED Indicators and Charge Time Calculation

LED Indicator Meanings

Power LED (RED) indicates power. Charging LED (RED/ORANGE) signals use; GREEN means fully charged. OFF indicates error.

Manual Termination for Outputs 4-7

Outputs 4-7 lack automatic termination. Charge process must be terminated manually after the appropriate charge period.

Charge Time Calculation Formula

Charge time in hours = (battery capacity (AH) x 1.4) / Charge current (A). Example provided for 7.2V/1.5Ah battery.

Battery Types and Operation Instructions

Rechargeable Battery Characteristics

Details Ni-Cd (memory effect), Ni-MH (no memory effect), and Lead-Acid batteries, including capacity and charging rates.

Step-by-Step Operation Guide

Read instructions, connect battery to correct port, connect charger to mains, observe LEDs, disconnect when fully charged.

Troubleshooting LED Indicators

If LEDs don't light up, check mains voltage, charger, outputs for shorts, or battery for deep discharge/defects.

Specifications

Battery Charge Current and Power

Details charge current (120mA-1A) and max power (38W) for the unit, with 110-240VAC input.

Output Port Capabilities

Lists charge current, cell count, and capacity for NiCd/NiMH and Lead-acid batteries for each output (1-7).

General Unit Information

Operating voltage range (110-240V AC), weight (530g), and dimensions (142x130x84mm) are provided.

Environmental Protection and Declaration

Environmental Protection Notes

Dispose of the product and batteries responsibly at designated collection points for recycling electrical equipment.

EU Conformity Declaration

Declaration of conformity with essential protective requirements for electromagnetic interference and LVD.
