FEATURES
‘Fuel’ Gauge Features
•
Multicolor 10-bar LED displays state of charge (5 green,
3 yellow, 2 red LEDs).
•
Flashing red LED signals “energy reserve” alarm at
70% discharged.
•
Double flashing red LEDs signal “empty” alarm at
80% discharged.
•
Normally closed relay opens at 80% discharge for lift lockout.
This unique holding relay will only lock out at the end of a
lift cycle.
•
Recognizes improperly charged battery.
•
Keyswitch activated LED display (Fuel gauge electronics are
energized as long as they remain connected to the battery).
•
Wide range adjustable discharge profile.
•
Dual reset methods in each gauge: Open Circuit Reset for
vehicles that exchange batteries and Charge Tracking Reset
for vehicles whose batteries remain connected to the gauge
DESCRIPTION
Curtis Model 803 combines in one instrument a completely
solid state battery discharge indicator, an LCD hour meter and
lift lockout, housed in a 52mm case. Void of moving parts, this
