How to Set Up and Use the 144-CHR-LI Battery Charger

This guide provides instructions for the safe setup, power connection, and proper charging of Thomas & Betts 144-BAT-LI battery packs using the 144-CHR-LI battery charger.

Estimated time: 45m

  1. Read Safety Information and Prepare Charger

    Before operating or servicing the 144-CHR-LI battery charger, read and understand all instructions and safety information provided in the manual. Ensure the charger is placed in a well-ventilated area, free of foreign objects, and at an ambient temperature between 50°F (10°C) and 95°F (35°C). Do not expose the charger to rain, snow, or direct sunlight.

  2. Connect the Power Cord

    Connect the AC power cord to the 144-CHR-LI charger, then plug the charger into a nominal 110-220 AC volt grounded circuit. The indicator lamp should blink red, indicating stand-by mode. If the power light fails to light, do not attempt to service it; return the charger for repair or replacement. Ensure the outlet is properly grounded to reduce the risk of electric shock.

  3. Prepare and Charge the Battery

    Ensure the Thomas & Betts 144-BAT-LI battery pack is at room temperature, ideally between 68°F (20°C) and 77°F (25°C), before charging. Do not charge a battery stored below 32°F (0°C). Insert the battery firmly into the charger. The indicator lamp will light solid green, signifying that charging has begun. When the battery reaches 80% capacity, the lamp will rapidly blink green. Upon 100% completion, the lamp will turn solid orange. If the lamp lights solid red, the battery temperature is too high or low; remove it and allow it to reach room temperature. If it blinks rapidly red, the battery is defective and must be replaced.
