THE CHARGING PROCESS:
1) Qualification - Battery Condition Check - Orange Charging LED Flashing Fast
When the charger is first switched on it checks the battery condition to determine whether the
battery needs reconditioning. During this qualification process it checks the internal impedance
and initial voltage of the battery and it will determine how much charge current, if any that the
battery will accept.
2) Enhanced Battery Rejuvenation - Orange Charging LED Flashing Fast
If the initial qualification detected that the battery was in poor condition, the patented rejuve-
nation process will begin automatically. During the rejuvenation process a high voltage equal-
ising and peak pulse reconditioning charge is used to repair the sulphated battery. This unique
patented feature will break down and dissolve the lead-sulphate crystal build up on the battery
plates which will extend the life of your battery. It can also balance out high concentrations of
acid. The equalisation voltage will be 8V maximum for 6V battery selection and 16V maximum
for 12V battery selection.
3) Soft Start Charging - Orange Charging LED Flashing Slow
Gently charges the battery using a reduced charge output until the battery voltages reaches
5.5V for 6V battery selection or 11V for 12V battery selection. If the battery voltage doesn’t reach
these levels within 6 hours, the safety timer protection will stop the unit from charging, the Red
Fault LED will illuminate and the Orange Charging LED will start flashing.
4) Bulk Charging - Orange Charging LED ON
Uses the maximum charge output until the battery voltage reaches 7.2V for 6V battery selection
or 14.4V for 12V battery selection. If the battery voltage doesn’t reach these levels within 24
hours, the safety timer protection will stop the unit from charging, the Red Fault LED will illumi-
nate and the Orange Charging LED will illuminate.
5) Absorption Charging - Orange Charging LED ON
Uses a constant voltage while reducing the charging output current to ensure the battery
receives a full charge without overcharging the battery.
6) Battery Analysis - Full/Float Green LED ON
The battery analysis stage checks the condition of the battery after the charge cycle is com-
pleted. If the battery voltage drops too quickly during the analysis mode, this means the battery
is probably faulty. If the battery analysis failed, this is indicated by the Green Full LED flashing.
7) Float Mode - Full/Float Green LED ON
This stage allows you to keep the charger connected 24/7 to ensure your battery is well main-
tained and kept 100% fully charged. Float mode will maintain the battery at a constant 6.8V for
6V battery selection or 13.6V for 12V battery selection.
8) Long Term Maintenance - Full/Float Green LED ON
During long term maintenance / float mode, the unit will apply a special pulse charge to ensure
the battery is kept in optimal condition.
