Battery Charging Triple Plus+ and Triple Plus+ IR

IV. Battery Charging

The new LIBRA Lithium-ion battery pack must be charged for a full 12

hours before first use. This will ensure the life of the new battery.

A ferrite clamp is included with

the Li-ion battery pack. Install the

ferrite clamp to the D.C. charging

lead as shown.

The new CROWCON battery pack

consists of a rechargeable Lithium-

ion battery pack. It has sufficient

capacity to power the instrument for 12 hours with one flammable, one oxygen

and two toxic gas sensors installed. Full recharge from flat is accomplished in

8 hours.

To use Triple Plus+/Plus+ IR CHARGER/INTERFACE, locate the complete instru-

ment in the charger housing (sprung contacts ensure connection), and observe

that the red power LED glows more brightly. An overnight charge is convenient

to ensure usability every day.

Note: when the instrument is placed into a charger or charger/interface which

is fitted with the new LIBRA lithium-ion battery pack the unit will turn off and

start charging. If performing calibration or maintenance work, turn the instru-

ment on when fitted into the charger or back on again if switched off when

placed in the charger.

The Charger/Interface also allows communication between the instrument and

a computer.

To use Triple Plus+/Plus+ IR CHARGING UNIT, locate the instrument (do not

switch it on), in the charger housing and observe that the charging indicator

LED glows. A discharged instrument will draw current at the standard rate,

indicated by the LED glowing red. As the battery approaches full charge, the

current drops to the trickle rate and the LED switches to green. An instrument

may be left at the trickle charge rate indefinitely, or removed for use.

The chargers are supplied with a mains lead for connection to a 110-240 V, 50-

60 Hz supply. Connect brown – Iive, blue – neutral, green/yellow – earth.

For DC charging (12-40 V), an optional lead is available incorporating a plug for

a vehicle cigarette lighter socket. An optional interconnecting mains lead joins

charger/interface units together for connection to a single outlet.
