Float

Bulk:

 This is the first stage where the battery is in a 

low charge state, where it receives the majority of its 
charge. During this stage the battery brought to 
about 85-95% capacity getting 100% of the 
available solar power. 

 
Absorption:

 In this stage the controller charge at a constant voltage and the battery is allowed to 

absorb current at a constant voltage. The constant voltage regulation prevents overheating and 
battery gassing; this stage terminates when the battery current is below 3 Amp or after 3 hours 
entered in absorption mode.   
 

Float (Maintenance):

 After the battery is fully charged, the controller reduces the battery voltage to 

a float charge, providing minimal current.
