34、IZED FOR FURTHER REPRODUCTION OR DISTRIBUTION WITHOUT PERMISSION FROM UL INTRODUCTION 1 Scope 1.1 These requirements cover battery chargers rated 600 volts or less and intended for household or commercial use to charge lead-acid engine-starter and other starting, lighting, and ignition (SLI) type ba
35、tteries, in accordance with the National Electrical Code, NFPA 70. The requirements also cover a battery charger intended to be permanently installed on a boat. 1.2 A battery charger for use with an internal combustion engine driving a centrifugal re pump shall comply with the requirements of this S
36、tandard and the applicable requirements for the end product. 1.3 These requirements do not cover the following types of battery chargers: a) Battery chargers for use in industrial applications as covered by the Standard for Industrial Battery Chargers, UL 1564; b) Battery charger systems for use in
37、electric vehicle applications covered by the Standard for Electric Vehicle (EV) Charging System Equipment, UL 2202; c) Battery chargers for use with portable tools or household appliances as covered by the Standard for Power Units Other Than Class 2, UL 1012, or the Standard for Class 2 Power Units,
38、 UL 1310; and d) Battery chargers for re protection signaling service. 2 Components 2.1 Except as indicated in 2.2, a component of a product covered by this standard shall comply with the requirements for that component. See Appendix A for a list of standards covering components generally used in th
39、e products covered by this standard. 2.2 A component is not required to comply with a specic requirement that: a) Involves a feature or characteristic not required in the application of the component in the product covered by this standard, or b) Is superseded by a requirement in this standard. 2.3
40、A component shall be used in accordance with its rating established for the intended conditions of use. 2.4 Specic components are incomplete in construction features or restricted in performance capabilities. Such components are intended for use only under limited conditions, such as certain tempera
41、tures not exceeding specied limits, and shall be used only under those specic conditions.

42、 3.1 Values stated without parentheses are the requirement. Values in parentheses are explanatory or approximate information. 3.2 Unless otherwise stated, values of current and voltage are root-mean-square for alternating current and average for direct current. 4 Undated References 4.1 Any undated r
43、eference to a code or standard appearing in the requirements of this standard shall be interpreted as referring to the latest edition of that code or standard. 5 Glossary 5.1 For the purpose of this standard the following denitions apply. 5.2 BATTERY, VALVE REGULATED (VR) A battery that is sealed wi
44、th the exception of a valve that opens to the atmosphere when the internal gas pressure in any cell exceeds atmospheric pressure by a preselected amount. VR batteries provide a means for recombination of internally generated oxygen and the suppression of hydrogen gas evolution to limit water consump
45、tion. The term VRLA (valve regulated lead-acid) is also used by the industry. 5.3 BATTERY, VENTED A battery in which the products of electrolysis and evaporation are allowed to escape freely to the atmosphere. These batteries have commonly been referred to as ooded. 5.4 BATTERY CHARGER A device used
46、 to replenish the capacity of batteries. 5.5 BATTERY CHARGER, AUTOMATIC A battery charger which senses that the battery has been charged and automatically maintains or terminates the charge. 5.6 BATTERY CHARGER, COMMERCIAL A battery charger intended or marketed for use in commercial establishments,
47、such as automotive service stations or battery sales outlets. 5.7 BATTERY CHARGER, FIXED A battery charger that is intended to be permanently connected electrically. 5.8 BATTERY CHARGER, HOUSEHOLD A battery charger intended or marketed for use in residential environments. 5.9 BATTERY CHARGER, PLUG-I
48、N A small household battery charger for mounting by insertion of its integral attachment plug blades in a standard wall receptacle. 5.10 BATTERY CHARGER, PORTABLE A battery charger that: a) Has no provision for a permanent wiring system; and b) Can be moved easily from one place to another for use.
