Czonka Relay install help

athomas03 · 07-14-2010, 08:27 PM

Picked up a new Czonka relay to get ready to upgrade cart to 48v. I believe the model EV200ADANA is compatible with 36 or 48 volt, so I thought I would go ahead a put it in place of my WR 586 36v and I'll be ready to add my 2 extra batteries. Only problem there aren't two small posts. I have a black and red wire to connect with the two black and two red wires that are on the WR small posts now. 1. What is the best way to connect these wires? 2. What to do with the diode that is connected on the small posts, how does it connect? 3. Also, it has the economizer on it, does that in anyway take the place of a resistor or diode?

The coil is polarized, red for positive, black for negative. The "economizer" is an arc suppressor. It takes place of the diode.

OK, thanks Roady. I'm just trying to figure out the best way to connect the 3 black wires and 3 red wires, since there is nothing on the two wires coming from the relay and the other wires have the u-shaped connector on those???

Your going to have to cut and splice some connectors on there. Thats the only way.

Some nice water resistant plug in connectors?

Yes, Scotty. I picked up some 3M waterproof connectors today. Just installed relay, no problem, except the mounting holes don't line up on the Alltrax controller. I got it secure though. Now, I just need to get two more T-105's and a charger. Controller is 48v compatible. I'm thinking of the LV3648, it's $255 on ebay. Any negatives on this charger? Then, sell old powerwise charger and WR 36v solenoid.
