Bulk Charge
(Constant
Current)
Initially, maximum current is applied to the battery
however, the three phases of the stage reduce the
time to charge, control electrolytic loss and enhance
battery health and life.
CC1
CC1 - Charging at maximum current.
CC2
CC2 - Current is reduced.
CC3
CC3 - Current is further reduced for improved charge
whilst minimising electrolyte loss and excess
temperature.
6
Absorption
(Constant
Voltage)
Applying an even higher voltage whilst reducing cur-
rent over time ensures the battery is topped up but
not over charged
7
Analysis
The charger conducts an analysis of the battery over
a period of time to determine the battery discharge
rate. Based on the battery performance, the battery
charger will recommence charging or move to the
next stage.
8
Recondition
(High Voltage
Repair)
The recondition phase applies maximum voltage to
maximise battery condition and further repair and
clean battery plates. This may be required following
significant discharge, for batteries with uneven cell
capacity or, to alleviate acid stratification when
calcium batteries are left discharged for more than a
couple of days.
NOTE:
The battery charger will assess the condition
of the battery and may not perform this
function.
9
Maintain
The battery charger monitors the battery voltage and
recommences the charge sequence when the
voltage drops to 12.8V (or 6.4V)
