2 General Safety
This manual will help you to handle the device safely. Use the device solely in
accordance with its intended use. Observe the safety instructions.
WARNING
Risk of burns from hot surfaces
During continuous operation, the surface of the device can reach
temperatures of up to 70 °C.
1. Avoid physical contact with the device during operation.
WARNING
Burns from escaping acid
Acid can leak out when handling batteries.
1. Wear acid-proof clothing when handling batteries.

WARNING
Risk of fire from overheated battery
Flammable gases can escape if the battery overheats.
1. Always charge batteries in well-ventilated rooms and away
from ignition sources.
Notice
Device defects from incorrect installation
Incorrect installation can result in device defects.
1. Install the device in a dry and cool location.
2.1 Intended Use
The BPC charge booster is an active DC-DC converter which charges the addi-
tional battery from the on-board supply system. Using the voltage at the input,
the modern voltage converter generates a regulated charging voltage for fast
recharging of lead batteries (wet, gel and AGM batteries) or lithium batteries
during travel.
At the output, the system supplies an adjustable DC voltage between 14.1V
and 15V and thereby provides consumers with power permanently or for a
short time. The input voltage is 12V.
The device is designed for an operating temperature of -20 °C ... +50 °C. A re-
duced output current is generated from surface temperatures of 70 °C.
2.2 Foreseeable Misuse
The device is designed for interior use only. Do not mount the device outside
the vehicle.

6 Preparation
NOTE!If you are using a Clayton Power lithium battery and CAN communica-
tion, there is no need to set the output voltage as it is detected automatically.
Before you install the BPC charge booster, the required output voltage must
be set. To do this, perform the following steps:
Connect the 12 V battery (DC Input)
To connect the starter battery, perform the following steps:
1 Disconnect the starter battery from the on-board supply system.
WARNING!Disconnect the negative cable first.
2 Secure the positive cable as close as possible to the starter battery with a
suitable fuse (60 A).
3 Connect the positive terminal of the starter battery to the DC input of the
device with a cable (25 mm2).
CAUTION!First connect the charge booster and then the starter battery.
NOTE!Loosen only the top nut.
4 Connect the negative terminal of the starter battery to the port for the
ground (GND) of the device with a cable (2.5 mm2).

ðThe device is ready for operation (‘LED Status’ flashes green).
5 Connect the starter battery to the on-board supply system.
ðThe BPC charge booster is connected to the starter battery.
Setting the Output Voltage
The BPC charge booster provides 3 different output voltages:
– 14.1 V for wet batteries
– 14.5 V for gel and AGM batteries
– 15 V for lithium batteries
An output voltage of 14.1 V is set at the factory.
To set the output voltage, perform the following steps:
6 Press the program button (approx. 6 seconds) until 'LED Failure' and 'LED
Status' illuminate green.
7 Press the program button for a further 3 seconds.
8 To choose between the output voltages, press the program button.
–LED Com: 14.1 V
–LED Failure: 14.5 V
–LED Status: 15 V
9 To store an output voltage, press the program button for 3 seconds until all
LEDs illuminate red.
ðThe output voltage is set. To check the set output voltage, see
