The charging regulations of the battery manufacturer are absolutely to be observed!
An operation of the unit at a LiFePO4 battery without BMS Battery Management
System and without cell equalization charging (balancing) is not admissible!
The battery temperature sensor
must have been installed at the battery
and must be
connected to the unit; no function without temperature sensor, LED
"Main Charging"
is flashing!
If possible, the battery temperature should be kept above 0 °C.
Note: The possible parallel/floating operation with consumer loads being connected to
the battery is also automatically considered by all charging programs.
"1 LiFePO4":
Charging program IU1oU2oU3 for makes, such as
RELION RB100SC
with completely integrated electronic system and safety circuit.
Otherwise:
High charging voltage! Operation only with own BMS.
Observe the battery capacity and the safety circuit!

Observe:
In cooperation with the battery manufacturers, the charging characteristic lines are adapted to the
indicated battery types and battery capacities (see "Technical Data"), and they are to be observed
absolutely.
Therefore, the temperature sensor must imperatively be installed at the negative pole of the battery, as
described!
In contrast to the lead battery, the following must absolutely be avoided for a LiFePO4 battery 12 V (4
cells), even for a short time:
•
Low voltage of the battery < 10.5 V (< 2.5 V / cell): by disconnection of the load in due time.
•
Overvoltage of the battery >15 V (>4.2 V / cell): by disconnection of the charging unit in due time.
The voltage rates of the individual cells can vary due to unavoidable tolerances.
Where required, lead batteries should be charged with the programs
:
"1" for AGM 14.8 V; "2" for Gel; "3" for AGM 14.4 V as well as acid lead-acid batteries.
