Faults
Fault/Indication
'OVERLOAD' LED on.
'TEMPERATURE' LED on.
'INPUT ' LED on.
'AC INPUT LED off.
Inverter/charger does not work when bat-
teries are connected.
Inverter/charger will not work after dock-
side voltage removed.
After switching on the battery charger it
will remain in 'Float' mode instead of
immediately initiate with charging. On the
'Volt-bar' the battery voltage is indicated.
Inverter on 'STAND-BY' switches on and
off continuously.
'OVERLOAD' and 'INPUT ' LEDs are off.
1) The inverter will switch itself on after switching off due to
overloading; temporary overloading caused by excess cur-
rent can thus be resolved.
If the inverter continually switches off and on, then the cause
of the overload must be traced and removed.
2) With a poor condition or discharged battery, a relatively high
load on the inverter will cause the battery voltage to fall so far
that the inverter switches itself off. When the load has been
reduced, the battery voltage will rise and the inverter switch-
es itself on again.
Charge the battery, or replace it, if the inverter, under normal
load, continuously switches on and off.
A battery that is too small can also cause continuous on and
off switching.
Inverter / battery charger BCC500, BCC600, BCC1000, BCC1200, BCC1500 and BCC2000
If the inverter/battery charger does not work, then it will usually
indicate what the problem is:
Possible Cause
Overload
Long term overload.
Battery voltage too low.
No input voltage.
BCC500, BCC600, BCC1000 and BCC1200
Battery terminals reversed polarity.
BCC1500 and BCC2000
Knife blade fuse faulty.
The output from the inverter has been
connected to 220 Volt dockside
power, causing damage to the inverter.
A very low charging current.
Equipment needing very little current
is connected.
The boat mains loads the converter
with a capacitative load.
3) In case of too deeply discharged batteries or batterries in
poor condition initially there will be a very low charging cur-
rent or no charging current at all.
For the battery charger this looks likes 100% fully charged
batteries and therfore it will remain in 'Float' mode.
By selecting temporarely the 'permanent boost' charging
characteristic of the battery charger a charging current will
start to flow after some time, several minutes to several
hours.
Always prevent discharging of the battery too deeply; this
may result in permanent damage of the battery! Put switch 4
back to the 'ON' position after several charging-discharging
cycles; the battery charger will now again operate according
to the standard charging characteristic. A too large water
consumption will be prevented by this. If there is no charging
current while in 'permanent boost' mode for many hours the
battery is irreparable damaged.
Solution
Remove cause of overload.
Allow the inverter to cool down and
reduce the load.
➔
Recharge battery. 2)
- No voltage from dockside cable.
- Fuse in panel faulty; replace:
BCC500, BCC600, BCC1000 and BCC1200
Glass fuse 5 x 20 mm 10 Amp fast blow.
BCC1500 and BCC2000
Glass fuse 6 x 32 mm 20 Amp fast blow.
Connect positive and negative terminals
correctly.
Replace knife blade fuse 160 A slow blow
(DIN C00).
Take the inverter/charger to dealer for
repair.
Select temporarely the charging chracter-
istic 'permanent Boost' of the battery
charger, switch 4 in position 'OFF', see
page 13. ➔ 3)
Remove the boat mains plug from inverter
as a check. Replace plug in inverter and
remove all plugs from boat mains socket
board one by one; also check video or
magnetron clocks/timers.
Consult your dealer.
