Charging process
The APC310 has an electronic reverse battery protection.
The charging current is only released if the battery is cor-
rectly connected and there is a minimum voltage of 1.2V.
The charging process is carried out in accordance with the
charging reference line with a minimum of performance loss
(see “Charging reference line”). When a temperature sensor
is used, charging is carried out on a temperature-dependent
basis.

Commissioning
The device is operational as soon as it is connected to the
APS400-K and the battery.
Removing the clamping space cover
Unlock the clamping space cover by pressing the two straps
at the same time and then remove (see page2, fig.A).
To attach the cover, push both straps into the slits of the hous-
ing shell and ensure that they click into place.
Maintenance
The power supply must always be completely discon-
nected before performing any maintenance work on the
device.
Clean the device and the ventilation slits with a dry and fluff-
free cloth.
Disposal
The device must be disposed of in line with the administra-
tive regulations of the respective country in which it is used.
National regulations and laws (in Germany, for example, the
End-of-life Vehicle Regulation) must be observed.

Automatic
Temperature-dependent control (optional)
The values of the automatic switching device refer to a battery
temperature of 20 °C. If a temperature sensor is used with the
battery, these values will vary in accordance with the battery
temperature.
High temperature –> reduction of the threshold values.
Lower temperature –> higher threshold values.
