C INSTRUCTION MANUAL AUTO CHARGE 1200 PUMP PLUS AUTOMATIC BATTERY CHARGER MODEL #091-9-1200 INPUT :115 volt, 60 Hz, 10 amps OUTPUT: 40 AMPERES 3 YEAR WARRANTY KUSSMAUL ELECTRONICS CO. , INC. 170 CHERRY AVE. , WEST SAYVILLE, N. Y. [. . . ] The output current of any charger is inherently a series of pulses whose frequency is determined by the power line frequency. Therefore there are brief intervals during which no charging current flows. During this brief interval the Auto Charge 1200 Pump Plus measures and stores the battery voltage. This battery voltage is compared to a standard and any error is detected and used to control the charger output to the desired level. There is no "trickle charge" and therefore no danger of overcharging and water boil-off. Automatic Current Limiting When batteries are severely discharged, some batteries can be overloaded due to the high charging current required. The Auto Charge 1200 Pump Plus contains an automatic current limit. This circuit limits the output current to the rated 40 amperes when charging a deeply discharged battery or if the starter cranks the engine while charging. The current limiter thus eliminates the need for an ignition interlock circuit. Battery Charge Condition Indicator This indicator shows the charge condition of the battery in 10 levels from "LOW CHARGE" to "FULLY CHARGED". This device indicates a defective battery when a bar graph does not rise to the "FULLY CHARGED" level after an extended period of charging. NOTE: If a battery is being charged with an external load of 4 to 10 amperes across it's terminals, the bar graph may move down 1 or 2 levels. This does not indicate a defective battery.
