Freedom SW Owner’s Guide
Battery Charging Reference
This section describes the multistage charging algorithm (formula) of the Freedom SW.
Battery Types
Freedom SW
charges flooded (or wet) lead-acid, Gel, AGM
(absorbed glass mat), and custom batteries.
•
Flooded (or wet)
batteries have removable battery caps
for refilling with distilled water and testing the
electrolyte.
•
Gel
batteries have the electrolyte in the form of a gel
rather than a liquid and do not require topping up. Gel
batteries are sealed and the battery caps are not
removable.
•
AGM (Absorbed Glass Mat)
batteries are similar to gel
batteries except that the electrolyte is absorbed into a
fiberglass matting.
•
Custom
battery is configured by the dealer, factory, or
service center for battery types other than those listed
above.
RISK OF BATTERY DAMAGE
Do not mix battery types. The Freedom SW can only select one battery
type setting for all batteries connected to its bank. All connected batteries
should either be: Flooded (or wet)
or
Gel
or
AGM
or
Custom.
Failure to follow these instructions can damage the unit and/or damage
other equipment.
