Equalizing Flooded Batteries
3.
Press and hold for five seconds the Charger Mode Select button and
Battery Temp Select button at the same time to put the Truecharge2
Battery Charger into equalization mode.
When the charger is performing the equalization, the Equalize LED
illuminates as a solid light. It will flash intermittently when
programmed prior to reaching float or rest mode.
4.
Monitor the specific gravity of each cell of the battery during
equalization with a battery hydrometer.
NOTE:
The equalization cycle is preset to last for one hour. It is not
possible to program another equalization cycle when the present cycle
has not ended yet.
Carefully check the specific gravity of each cell and repeat the
equalization cycle until they all meet the battery manufacturer’s
specifications for specific gravity or until the specific gravity stabilizes
relative to each other for an hour.
The charger automatically exits equalization to float mode or rest
mode after one cycle. To manually exit equalization mode early, repeat
Step 3.
5.
Check the battery electrolyte level. If necessary, refill with distilled
water only and repeat a normal charge cycle.
IMPORTANT:
The onboard display and remote panel buttons will not
allow selection of equalization for AGM and GEL batteries.
