10 Using the Charger Gel/AGM/Lead-acid
Note
The charging voltage and the period for the main charging phase (Uo phase) can be selected using the
switch field S1.
10.1.3 U phase (float)
The "STATUS" LED constantly lights Green. If the current decreases to 10% or under the
rated current or if the time limit of 4/6/8 hours is exceeded, then the charger switches over
to economy charging (13.5V/27.0V or 13.8V/27.6V).
Note
Batteries may be charged separately from each other if the chargers have double charging or three-fold
charging connections. The outputs are separated internally by diodes, thus the weaker battery will be
always first charged to the charging level of the stronger battery.
Attention
The maximum battery capacity should NOT exceed the specified capacity, otherwise the
functions of the individual charging phases could be influenced.
10.1.4 8-day conditioning
If the battery charger stays at U phase for 8 days, it will switch back to 3-stage charging
IUoU, and stay at Uo phase for 60 minutes to revive the battery.
Note
1. 8-day conditioning will be terminated whenever equalization function or half power mode
is activated.
2. When the charger is in the equalization stage or half power mode, 8-day conditioning will NOT
be triggered.
10.1.5 Equalization
The function of equalization could be activated as long as the battery charger is NOT in the
half power mode or power supply mode.
The function of equalization will be activated only when the battery is charged and stays in
Uo phase with < 25% of Full load current.
The battery charger will charge the battery 3 hours with equalization setting voltage
(15.5V or Uo phase setting voltage) and half of rated current.
Note
Once the equalization function is activated, it can only be cancelled by turning off the battery charger.
