BattaMax User Manual Revision 2.0 It is important to note that the temperature of the battery and the ambient temperature can differ significantly. As an ambient temperature can be changed rapidly, the battery temperature is slower to change due to the thermal mass of the battery.
BattaMax User Manual Revision 2.0 3.2.2.2 5/16” Threaded Stud Place a 5/16” cable lug (not included) over the threaded stud ensuring that the cable lug connection is contacting the metal surface of the terminal. Place the flat washer on top of the cable lug, followed by the 5/16” lock washer.
BattaMax User Manual Revision 2.0 3.3.2 Parallel Connection A parallel connection will increase the system capacity (Ah) and the system voltage will remain unchanged. For example, if two 12V batteries with 50Ah of capacity are wired in series, the resulting battery bank will be 12V of 100Ah (50Ah + 50Ah = 100Ah).
BattaMax User Manual Revision 2.0 4 SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE 4.1 C HARGING BattaMax batteries are charged at the factory and are ready for installation when they are received. Proper charging will maximize battery performance and lifecycle. Undercharging as well as overcharging batteries will significantly reduce the life of the battery.
BattaMax User Manual Revision 2.0 4.1.2 Charge Characteristic Curve (Standby Use) 4.1.3 Temperature Compensation Many charge controllers offer a Battery Temperature Sensor (BTS) that automatically adjusts the charging parameters based on the measured battery temperature. The temperature should be adjusted by subtracting 0.004 volt per cell from the voltage reading for every 1°C above 25°C, or adding 0.004 volt per cell for every 1°C below 25°C.
