Contact distribution, OEM Supplier, DPI’s web site, www.DPIpower.com or refer
to the section Cables, Adaptors & Accessories’ for Cabling configurations.
Alternately, your model may have already be supplied with this option
The end of the cable, where the Temperature Compensation device is located,
must be connected to the most negative terminal of the battery pack
Adjustment rates are based on a typical -5mV per cell per degree Celsius, above
or below 25*C. For example and using a 48V battery (24cells) and 35*C:
o .005V x 24cells x (35*C-25*C) = 1.2V
o If, from the Charge MODE Setting Table, a mode was selected where
the battery regulated at 2.4V/cell (2.4V x 24cells = 57.6V total), then the
temperature compensation would decrease that target voltage down to
56.4V (57.6V 1.2V)
o Conversely, if the battery temperature was 15*C (10*C below 25*C),
then the compensation would have increased the 57.6V target to 58.8V
When charging lead acid (and many other chemistry types) batteries during
winter or cold climates, or operating equipment in ‘large Factory Freezer
Applications’, a higher charge setting is required to fully charge those batteries
and necessitates the use of a temperature compensation cable option install.
Conversely, charging batteries in typically hot climates such as deserts also
necessitates the use of a temperature compensation cable option install to
prevent over-charging.
13. VEHICLE LOCKOUT CONTROL OPTION
The wiring shown in the figure above, when applied as an application with
the equipment or vehicle, will prevent the operating of that equipment or
vehicle while charger is connected to A.C. Utility Power, and is highly
recommended.
