Charging depleted batteries
The Global LF series inverter allows start up and through power
(bypass) after batteries are depleted. See
page
For 12VDC models: after the battery voltage goes below 10V and the power switch is kept in the "ON"
position and the inverter stays connected to the battery and the battery voltage doesn’t drop below 2V, the
inverter will be able to charge the battery once qualified AC inputs are present.
Before the battery voltage goes below 9VDC, the charging can be activated when the switch is turned to
“Off”, then to “ON”.
When the voltage goes below 9VDC, and you accidently turn the switch to OFF or disconnect the
inverter from the battery, the inverter will not be able to charge the battery once again, because the CPU
loses memory during this process.

The charging capacity will peak charge rate in about 3 seconds. This may cause a generator to drop
frequency, making the inverter transfer to battery mode.
It is recommended to gradually put the charging load on the generator by switching the charging
switch from min to max. Together with the 15s switch delay our inverter gives the generator enough
time to spin up. This will depend on the size of the generator and rate of charge.
As a general rule, the Bulk Charging Current should be limited to 20% of the capacity of the battery
bank. Higher charging current may be used if permitted by the battery manufacturer.
Warning: Items to note and are not covered under warranty.
To set the charge current control switch, use a small jeweler’s style flat-head screwdriver
and gently turn to avoid breakage due to over-turning.
To guarantee the best performance of the built in AC charger, when the AC input is from a
generator, the standby generator should be of at least 150% higher capacity than the
inverter. Example, if you are using a 2500 watt inverter, the generator must be 3750 watts or
larger. If using a 1250 watt inverter, the generator must be 1875 watts or larger, and so on.
Warning! Operating with an under-rated generator or generator with unqualified wave
form may cause premature failure and is not covered under warranty.
