QUANTUM CHARGER MAINTENANCE The Quantum charger streamlined design emphasizes ease of maintenance. Preventative Maintenance

is mandatory annually to maintain warranty – twice a year is recommended.

The maintenance Below is the list of the maintenance procedures:

1) Air Filter Regularly inspect air filters and clean or replace as necessary. Location and environmental conditions

must be taken into account when determining the frequency that the filter is cleaned or replaced. In the

outdoor environment, the filters should be checked at least quarterly.

The air filters are located in the front and back covers. The filters need to be changed or blown out or

washed in warm soapy water (the filter must be completely dried prior to reinstall). Ensure that the filter

is clean with no tears and in good sound condition before installation.

2) Power modules Inspection Pull out the power module and Inspect DC connector for any discoloration or deformation. Reinstall the PMs and ensure that the PMs are fully seated, and the tabs are flushed. Tighten the bolts all the way by hand and make sure they are secured.

2) Rust Inspection The charger should be inspected for rust formation quarterly. The charger chassis is made of aluminum

that is resistant to rust. However, the rust needs to be checked near the inlet fans of the power

modules as shown in the picture below. In order to expose the power module, please remove the front

cover and front labyrinth.

3) Battery Cables Inspection

Regularly inspect the DC cables for wear. If the DC cables or connectors become worn or damaged with

signs of cracks or tears, they should be immediately replaced by qualified personnel with a cable of the

same rating.

Inspect the EURO connector housing and make sure there is no damage.

Inspect the tips of the battery connector for signs of pitting due to arcing. Replace the tips as needed.

Check the torque lines inside the charger. If needed, make sure the torque is around 21 Ft-Lbs. (+0 /- 10%)

5) Screen Cover Inspection The plastic front screen cover needs to be inspected to ensure it is not brittle. If a screen protector is used, check the screen protector as well.

6) General Inspections Since this is an outdoor charger, insect nests might form and could block the airflow. Check the chassis cavity to ensure there is no air restriction.
