3. SWITCHMODE TECHNOLOGY
3
STEP 1 SOFT START
A preliminary charge processes that gently introduces power to the battery.
This protects the battery and increases battery life.
STEP 2 Bulk (Constant Current)
Charging with maximum current until approximately 80 % battery capacity.
STEP 3 Absorption (Constant Voltage)
Charging with declining current to maximize up to 100% battery capacity.
STEP 4 Float
The Float stage maintains the battery at 100% charge without overcharging
or damaging the battery. This means the charger can be left connected to the
battery indefinitely.
STEP 5 Pulse
Maintaining the battery at 95-100% capacity. The charger monitors the battery
voltage and gives a pulse when necessary to keep the battery fully charged.
The battery charger has a 5-step fully automatic charging cycle, the cycle is
repeated infinitely. If the terminal voltage drops below a lower limit, the charger
automatically goes back to the beginning of the charging curve.
The SVDC1225 / SVDC1250 converts your vehicle's 12VDC/24VDC alternator
power to the voltage level allowing your batteries to be fully charged, prolonging
battery life and reliability with the latest synchronous switching technology.
DUAL INPUT OPERATION
The SVDC1225 / SVDC1250 Dual has 2 inputs. The Service battery will be
charged from the alternator, solar panel, or both in combination. The solar
panel adjusts itself to the Starter battery voltage. The Starter battery will be
charged and maintained directly by the solar panel if the Service battery is
fully charged.
SOLAR MPPT
The SVDC1225 / SVDC1250 utilises sophisticated MPPT (Maximum Power
Point Tracking) solar regulator technology. MPPT maximises the power
generated from the solar panels to the auxiliary battery.
IGNITION CONNECTION
The SVDC1225 / SVDC1250 can be wired to the vehicle's ignition allowing
it to operate only when the ignition is turned on. The ignition connection also
activates the lower input voltage operation to suit vehicles with smart
(variable voltage) alternators.
