On-board power supply system

The CSV 414 caravan charging system is the central power supply unit for all 12 V consumers connected to the caravan’s electrical system. It is usually located in a cupboard or storage area and is accessible from the front in order to change fuses.
The caravan charging system has been designed solely for connecting to a 12 V onboard
supply.
Connected units can be supplied from the caravan battery or the towing vehicle’s battery if a
mains supply is not available.
Because the device provides a hum-free, stabilised output voltage, sensitive consumers
such as transistor lights and radios can be connected and powered.

Consumers are switched off (with the exception of these with a continual supply, see Page
4) when the caravan is hitched to the towing vehicle and the ignition is switched on (power
on terminal 10 of trailer hitch TH). Consumers can be switched on again at any time (the
automatic disconnector does not prevent this).
No standby current when the towing vehicle ignition is OFF, plus power consumption of control electronics of refrigerator (see documentation from refrigerator manufacturer and other
consumers with a continual supply, see Page 4); measurement taken when all consumers
in the caravan are switched off.

Additional functions
This output supplies the control electronics of a fridge:
F From the caravan battery
F From the towing vehicle’s battery when the ignition is switched on
F From the mains supply when it is connected up
The refrigerator only operates on 12 V when the caravan is hitched to the towing vehicle and
the ignition is switched on.
CAUTION!
The caravan / towing vehicle battery is damaged beyond repair by a total discharge. So therefore:

905.107 BA / EN

Avoid continuous 12V operation.
The refrigerator only operates on 12V when the caravan is hitched to the towing vehicle and its ignition is ON.

The water pump is connected directly to the CSV 414 (output Pump/WC). The supply voltage to the pump is enabled from the Pump switch on the operator and control panel. The
pump is switched on when a control voltage of 12V is applied to input ”Water Tap Signal” (via
a switch in the water tap). The other output (WC/Pump) is provided parallel.
