Only 1 LED lights at a time
Battery Condition Indicator -Marine Trolling Motor, Solar System, Forklift or other 48 volt DC battery powered equipment.
For use on any equipment where the battery status is important. It is specifically designed for standard lead acid batteries and will not work on the newer batteries made by Trojan, Exide, Interstate, Powertron or Walmart. For those batteries, you will need to purchase a PRO12-48R (TM) battery monitor.
Some mechanical aptitude is needed to make the installation. If you are not capable of finding an appropriate voltage supply, you may need to seek the help of a professional for installation.
The only available instructions are provided below.
It is recommended to have the battery or batteries recharged when the #3 LED lights Yellow as a safety margin to prevent dead batteries.
CAUTION: CAUTION: This is not a full proof device and no warranty is made that your battery/batteries is/are in good condition.
Installation Connections The terminal marked "+" is for positive volts. The terminal marked "-" is for ground. These must be hooked up for the indicator to record battery usage. With only these two terminals hooked up, there will be no display showing. This is done to conserve battery power, but the meter is monitoring the batteries.
When you want to see the display, connect the terminal marked "C" to a positive volt source (+ and - terminals should still be connected).
"C" can be hard wired to have the display showing all of the time or can be used through a momentary contact switch to see the battery status by depressing the momentary contact switch. Another method for installation would be to connect "C" to a terminal coming from a switch key that goes hot when the key is turned on. Remember that + and - must always be connected.
NOTE: For the meter to be reset to full, it is necessary that the meter sees the charging voltage for as little as 1/2 second. If you have your meter hooked up only from a switched source for both the + and "C" terminal, you must switch this on during the recharge cycle for less than 1 second to reset the meter.
We ship meters within 24 hours of payment or next business day. Warranty: Hour meters are warranted for a period of 3 months from the date of sale. |
