Battery Cable - ENAG CDS3 12V/80A Manuel D'utilisation

3.2.3. Battery cable

Please check imperatively the compatibility of voltage, current and setting according to the connected
battery type before switching ON the charger.
Check of the charge voltage
Before connecting the batteries to the charger, imperatively check the polarity of the batteries.
Equally check the battery voltage thanks to a calibrated voltmeter. A too lower voltage value on some types
of batteries can point out an irreversible damage of them and so an impossible recharge.
The CDS3 charger is equipped with 5 output terminals:
K4: - BAT (minus set of batteries)
K5: +BAT D (plus engine battery for marine-type applications)
K6: +BAT 1 (plus battery set 1)
K7: +BAT 2 (plus battery set 2)
K12 : +SP (external battery isolator input particular case)
Be careful: a direct connection of a battery on the SP terminal could destroy the charger,
imperatively connect a battery isolator between the battery and the SP terminal).
Up to 3 metres, the cross-section of the battery cables should be at least equal to or greater than the values
provided in the table below:
Model
CDS3/12-80
CDS3/24-60
CDS3/24-75
CDS3/48-30
The installer should choose the type of cable (H07-VK, MX...) according to the type of application and the
applicable standards.
The cable bushings or glands must remain on the lower side of the case to avoid the linking cables being
damaged on the metal walls of the case and to guarantee insulation between the active conductors and the
electrical exposed conductive part.
