JAC0524G-XLR - Schauer 24V, 5A Fully Automatic Electronic Charger/Maintainer for GEL Batteries - 115VAC - XLR 3-Pin Plug
Model JAC0524G-XLR (0891-23)
Schauer JAC0524G-XLR - 24V, 5A Intelligent Electronic Charger with XLR Plug, Optimized for GEL Batteries
The Schauer JAC0524G-XLR is a Fully Automatic, 3-Stage Electronic Charger with XLR Plug. This charger is OPTIMIZED FOR GEL BATTERIES (GELLED ELECTROLYTE). The Finish Voltage of 28.5VDC enhances battery life in gelled electrolyte batteries (This is slightly lower than the standard JAC0524-XLR at 28.8VDC). Specially equipped with a 3-Pin XLR DC Plug, this charger is an excellent choice for charging and maintaining batteries in medical mobility scooters & wheelchairs with 24 volt GEL battery systems up to 75AH capacity. This Intelligent Charger may be left connected to the battery indefinitely, keeping it safely charged without danger of overcharging.
The JAC0524G-XLR will charge any type lead acid battery, but is optimized for gelled electrolyte batteries. Other lead acid types should use model JAC0524-XLR.
The 3-Stage Charge Control provides Modified Constant Current Charge to a constant finishing voltage, then to a float/standby voltage to maintain the battery in a fully charged condition.

LED Status Indicator Light in normal charge cycle:
• LED1 (Left): RED – AC power connected, Power Switch ON
• LED2 (Right): YELLOW – Charging, Bulk and Absorption stages - Fan On
• LED2 (Right): GREEN – Battery Charged, Charger in Maintenance Float mode - Fan Off
NOTE: If LED2 is GREEN when initially connected to a known discharged battery (rather than YELLOW, which indicates normal operation), there is a FAULT in the output connection. Check for the following conditions:
1. Charger Not Connected
2. Minimum Battery Voltage Not Sensed (8V minimum)
3. Output Fuse Blown (check the fuse under the twist cap)
NOTE: PLP Battery Supply recommends that chargers in this range have an amperage output that equates to a minimum of approximately 10-15% the AH capacity of the battery being charged. For example, this 5 amp charger would be appropriate for a battery with a maximum AH capacity in the 50AH-75AH range. Chargers with marginally low output ratings may result in unacceptably long battery charge times and/or damage to the charger.
