BATTERY CHEMISTRY SELECTION
Our Battery Chemistry option lets you set the charging profile of batteries
depending on their chemistry (Calcium, AGM, WET or GEL). This must
be done to ensure you maintain your battery effectively and maximise its
performance. To do this:
Press the mode button – the orange button left of the LEDs - and wait
until there are no
lights showing
Press the mode button until you have selected the correct battery type.
GEL
(max voltage of 14.2V)
Designed specifically for the GEL type batteries. But note that some GEL
batteries do require a higher voltage and for these the AGM option can be
used.
AGM
(max voltage of 14.4)
Designed specifically for the AGM type batteries but as mentioned above
can be used with GEL types that require a higher voltage.
WET
(bulk and absorption 14.9 volts, recondition up to 15.8 volts)
Designed specifically for WET type batteries. As such it has a maximum
charge voltage during bulk and absorption of 14.9 volts and then increases
to 15.8 volts during the recondition stage.
Calcium
(bulk and absorption 14.9 volts, equalisation and recondition up to
15.8 volts)
Designed for calcium batteries that have been discharged deeply and need
an equalisation charge to ensure a full electrolyte reading. Note – if the
battery only needs a top up, do so and then use the WET charge mode.
Power Supply
(constant voltage of 13.8 volts)
When the charger is in this Power Supply mode, the battery charger
gives a constant voltage of 13.8VDC at up to 10A. This is best used with
appliances or tools that are drawing power from the battery. See “Power
Supply” section (page 12).
To adjust between options, press and hold for 3 seconds to select desired
option.
