6.2 Protections 

 

Protection 

 

 

Battery Over Voltage 

Battery has reached or 

exceeded the over-

voltage point 

Controller will 

automatically stop 

charging and 

discharging 

Battery Over 

Discharge 

Battery voltage has 

dropped below the 

Low voltage disconnect 

point 

Controller will turn off 

the load and only 

recover once the 

battery has charged 

above the low voltage 

reconnect voltage. 

Overload 

The connected load 

exceeds the rated 

current 

The load will 

automatically be 

turned off 

6.3 Charging Profiles 

NOTE: Values with (E) next to them indicates user adjustable values. For 

iTechworld Lithium Batteries, please use LiFePO4(4-3.2) only, please refer to
