General Product Information Please read the following information before installing. A visual inspection of this product for damage during shipping is recommended before installation. It is your responsibility to ensure that qualified mechanical and electrical technicians install this product. The Guardian charger provides automatic, current limited and voltage controlled charging of vented lead acid batteries. It may be used in a wide range of industrial charging applications, incl

Current Limiting The Guardian battery charger is current limited and will only output the rated current of the charger. Guardian Current Ratings Model Rating BCEG-12-10 10A BCEG-24-10 10A BCEG-24-20 20A Battery Charged Condition When charged, the battery will only accept a charge to replace the losses within the battery (approximately 1mA per AH of battery). If there is a standing load (the panel controller, etc.) the charger will output the standing load plus the losses to the

Installation and Mounting Instructions Mounting hole dimensions: Width (between holes) – 6.77” (172mm) Height (between holes) – 10.04” (255mm) Mounting holes 0= 0.2” (6mm) • The charger must be mounted as shown in the figure above. By unscrewing the mounting screws the faces can be opened on their hinges to allow access to the internal connections. • Cable entry is via ½” conduit knock-outs on either side of the unit. These must be carefully removed from the enclosure sides. • A

Operating Instructions Before operating the battery charger, ensure that the charger is assembled and installed as per the installation instructions. WARNING: DANGER OF INJURY OR DEATH Before connection, disconnection or handling of Guardian battery charger, be sure AC power supplies are off. NOTE: Connection to or disconnection from live wiring can also cause damage to internal components. Terminal Connection Information Output: To battery CAUTION: Observe correct polarity I

The BCEG-12-10 and BCEG-24-10 models are fitted with a self-resetting polyfuse on the DC output. If reverse polarity or short circuit faults occur, turn off AC power and disconnect the outputs. This will allow the polyfuse to reset. The charger can then be re-connected and switched back on. No replacement of output fuse should be necessary. If fuse fails to reset, the charger should be returned to supplier. BCEG-24-20 models are fitted with an automotive type blade fuse. Ensure cor

Over Voltage, Under Voltage, and Charge Fail Connection In a de-energized state the COM – N/C contact is alarmed. The relay energizes on power up and changes state to COM – N/O. These contacts are volt-free contacts rated at 1A @ 30VDC. Fuses All Guardian models are fitted with fuses at the required ratings. Before replacing any fuses, ensure charger is off from power supply. Section 75 00-02-0615 02-29-08 - 9 -

Measuring Charging Voltage and Current To check the charger is working, follow these steps then consult the expected conditions listed below. 1. VOLTAGE – Place voltmeter across battery terminals (“V” in diagram). 2. CURRENT – Turn off AC power supply before breaking into the line to measure DC Amps. Break the positive line to the battery and place an ammeter between positive from charger and positive of battery (“A” in diagram). Current Flow from Charger to Battery If voltage at te

Using Correct Size Battery Charger The battery charger will need to provide both the standing load and minimum charge current. If a charging current of 2 amps is required, and the standing load is 1 amp, then the charger needs to be able to output a total of 3 amps. Refer to genset manual for sizing of battery chargers to generator set. If installing your own chargers, lead acid battery manufacturers recommend the following: • Minimum charge current should be approximately 5% battery A
