Configuring the Freedom SW using the SCP
Equalization Procedure
To start equalizing the batteries, do one of the following:
•
Apply AC voltage and ensure that the inverter/charger
transfers AC and starts charging.
•
On the Xanbus Setup menu, highlight
Equalize
and
select
Enable
.
The unit will proceed and execute a complete bulk and
absorption charge before transitioning to equalize.
IMPORTANT
: The inverter/charger will not perform
equalization if AC is not present, the charger is disabled,
or the selected battery type does not support equalization.
If any of these cases happen, a warning is issued
If the Freedom SW will not perform the equalization,
see“Detected Warning Types and Behavior” on page 90.
EXPLOSION HAZARD
Equalize charge flooded or vented batteries only. Hydrogen and oxygen
gases are produced when batteries are equalize charged. Provide
adequate ventilation and remove all sources of ignition to prevent
explosion.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or serious injury.
IMPORTANT:
In a system where more than one device is capable of
equalizing batteries (such as stacked Freedom SWs), there is no system-
wide equalization command for all devices. To equalize with two devices,
each would have to be enabled individually. Alternatively, equalization can
be performed using only one device. During the equalization process, one
device applies the equalization charge while the other devices continue to
operate in synchronized charge mode, typically in float (three-stage
charging) or no-float (two-stage charging).
