INSTALLATION
WARNING: The shipping pallet must be removed for proper and safe operation.
Location
For maximum safe operation, choose a location which is free of excess moisture, dust,
combustible material and corrosive fumes. Also, avoid locations where temperatures are high
or where liquids will drip on the charger. Do not obstruct the ventilation openings. Follow charger
warning label when mounting on or over a combustible surface. The recommended charger
mounting location should provide a radial distance of at least 28 inches away from the closest
top edge of the battery.
Cabinet Mounting
The charger must be mounted on a wall, stand, shelf or floor in a vertical position. The minimum
distance between two chargers must be 12 inches.
The charger will be installed with four 5/16 inch bolts or with the bracket supplied. See the
Mounting Dimensions section at the end of this manual for proper bolt pattern. Charger should
be permanently fastened in place.
For shelf mounting, part number 159-6LA22723 is required – two per charger.
NOTE: Ambient temperature at all levels cannot exceed 113° F (45° C).
Electrical Connections
To prevent failure of the charger, make sure it is connected to the correct line voltage.
Follow your local and National Electric Code (NEC) in making these connections.
WARNING: Make sure the power to the charger is OFF and the battery is disconnected
before connecting the input power to the terminals of the charger.

The user must provide suitable branch circuit protection and a disconnect method from the AC
power supply to the charger to allow for safe servicing.
CAUTION
Risk of Fire. Use only on circuits provided with branch circuit protection in accordance with the
Breaker/Fuse Chart table in this manual, and the National Electrical Code, NFPA 70.

DC Plug Polarity
The charging cables are connected to the DC output of the charger with the red cable to the
positive bussbar, and the black cable to the negative bussbar. The red cable is terminated into
the “+” side of the battery connector, and the black cable is terminated into the “-“side of the
connector. The output polarity of the charger must be observed when connecting to the battery
(read warning above). Improper connection will open the DC fuses in the power modules.
GLOSSARY
Wi-iQ® Device
This unit, permanently mounted on the battery, ensures that certain battery parameters can be
sent to the charger for the purposes of optimizing the charge and monitoring the charging and
discharging characteristics.
Charging Profile
The charging profile defines the rate of current charge over time. The charger adapts to the
battery’s age and level of discharge. Controlling the overcharge coefficient, whatever the
battery’s discharge level, reduces the amount of electricity consumed.
Gel-Bloc Profile
This charging profile is an I-E-I (constant current, constant voltage, constant current) charging
profile designed for Gelled Electrolyte type sealed lead acid batteries.
IONIC™ Profile
The IONIC™ charging profile diagnoses the battery throughout the recharge and adjusts the
charging profile to effectively charge the battery. The intelligent diagnostic sampling provides
more rapid optimized charging of flooded cell batteries subject to very high demands. The short
current pulses stimulate gas formation in the active material, causing sulfuric acid to be
distributed outside the plates and balances out differences in density, homogenizing the
electrolyte across the surface of the plates.
NXBLOC Profile
This charging profile allows charging of NexSys TPPL bloc batteries at rates of 0.2 to 0.7 C 6.
NXSTND Profile
This charging profile allows charging of NexSys 2V batteries at rates of 0.20 to 0.25 C6.
10
NexSys®+ Owner’s Manual AM-NXSPLUS-OM
Rev AC October 2018
NXFAST Profile
This charging profile allows charging of NexSys 2V batteries at rates of 0.26 to 0.40 C6.
Opportunity Profile
This charging profile is used when opportunity charging is desired. It includes a start rate of up
to 25% of the battery’s 6-hour rated amp hour capacity and requires an equalize charge
performed once a week. The weekly equalize charge can be programmed to run automatically.
Operation
During opportunity charging the user should charge the battery during breaks, lunch or
any available time during the work day. The Opportunity Profile allows the battery to be
safely charged while it is kept in a partial state of charge between 20% and 80% of the
6-hour rated capacity during the work week. Sufficient time should be scheduled after
the weekly equalize charge to check and maintain electrolyte levels and allow the
battery to cool to ambient temperatures.
Daily Charge
When using the Opportunity Profile, the Daily Charge option can be set to add
additional charging time every day if the work schedule allows. This option should be
considered only when the daily work demand requires additional capacity.
NOTE: The factory default is daily charge disable, 6 hour Equalize, Sunday at 00 hour.
VRLA Profile
This charging profile allows for Valve Regulated Lead Acid (VRLA) batteries to be charged. This
charging profile is an IEIE (constant current, constant voltage, constant current, constant
voltage) type.
Equalization Charging
Equalization charging, performed after normal charging, balances the electrolyte densities in the
battery’s cells.
Refresh Charging
Refresh or maintenance charging enables the battery to be maintained at maximum charge all
of the time that it is connected to the charger.

NexSys®+ Owner’s Manual AM-NXSPLUS-OM
Rev AC October 2018
DESCRIPTION OF OPERATION
General
NexSys®+ chargers are microprocessor-controlled. The processor calculates the battery’s
capacity so that the charging profile can be automatically adapted to the battery’s actual state
over a wide range of capacities. NexSys+ chargers adapt to the battery’s capacity and its
discharge level.
NexSys+ chargers are set to charge NexSys®, GelBloc, flooded and sealed lead-acid batteries
within the range of the cell and ampere-hour rating marked on the nameplate. Attempting to
charge other battery designs with this charger could cause damage to the battery.
Charging Current
Charging current is determined by the battery voltage and state of the charge condition. Charging
current declines automatically as battery voltage rises during the charge. As the battery charges,
the graphical display will output various charge parameters including the percentage of battery
capacity.
AC Power Fail
If the AC power fails with a battery connected to the charger during a charge cycle, the charger
will reset and start a new charge cycle when power is restored. All charger settings as well as
the time and date are preserved.
Series Charging
In series charging, the voltages of both batteries add up and must match charger’s nameplate
DC Volts rating. The charger’s amp-hour rating must be equal to each battery’s ampere-hour
rating. Charge cycle will not start unless both batteries are connected.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
The NexSys®+ series of chargers are compatible with batteries of 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 64, 72
and 80 volts (depending on the version supplied).
Battery recognition (voltage, capacity and state of charge) is accomplished automatically by the
microprocessor. Eight charging profiles are available (Cold Storage, Gel-Bloc, Ionic,
Opportunity, NXBLOC, NXSTND, NXFAST and VRLA) based on the configuration chosen by
the operator. Furthermore, equalization charges are integrated.
The NexSys®+ charger includes an adapter to communicate with a Wi-iQ® device. The Wi-iQ
device is an advanced battery module that measures, tracks, and stores important battery
parameters such as temperature, electrolyte level, voltage and AH. This data is wirelessly
transmitted to the NexSys®+ to optimize charging, alerts the operator to battery issues and
safeguards the battery from being permanently damaged.

The charger requires minimal maintenance. Connections and terminals should be kept clean
and tight. The unit (especially the heatsink) should be periodically cleaned with an air hose
to prevent any excessive dirt build up on components. Care should be taken not to bump or
move any adjustments during cleaning. Make sure that both the AC lines and the battery are
disconnected before cleaning. The frequency of this type of maintenance depends on the
environment in which this unit is installed.
