Select a suitable location for mounting the charger. The location should be dry, well-ventilated, and protected from direct sunlight and excessive heat. Ensure there is sufficient space around the unit for air circulation.

• Mount the charger vertically on a non-flammable surface.
• Use appropriate screws and fasteners for the mounting surface.
• Ensure all connections are easily accessible after mounting.

3.2. Connexions elèctriques

The charger has three full current outputs designed to charge up to three separate battery banks. The total current drawn across all three outputs combined must not exceed the charger's rated output current (25 Amps).

1. Connexions de bateria de CC:
   • Connect the positive (+) terminals of your battery banks to the corresponding positive output terminals on the charger.
   • Connect the negative (-) terminals of your battery banks to the common negative terminal on the charger.
   • Use marine-style battery connectors (ring terminals or battery clamps) as appropriate for your setup.
   • Ensure all DC connections are tight and secure to prevent voltaggotes de líquids i sobreescalfament.
2. Connexió d'entrada de CA:
   • Connect the standard AC power cord (5-15P) to a compatible 120-240 VAC power outlet.
   • Comproveu que l'entrada voltage matches the charger's specifications.

4. Funcionament

4.1. Engegada inicial
