Page 5: What's Included
WHAT’S INCLUDED Owner's Manual FEATURES The BatteryCharge15 (BC15) and BatteryCharge25 (BC25) are automatic 12V battery chargers with 7 charge stages. The 7-stage charger increases your battery’s life and performance as it gives high- performance and intelligent charging. As well as being able to use this charger on various types of batteries, it can also help recondition sulphated lead acid batteries or revive drained LiFePO4 batteries.
Page 6: Polarity Protection
Polarity Protection This allows the charger protection if there is a reverse connection or short circuit and stops any sparking from the output leads. Note: This feature is not available in Power Supply mode where a battery should not be connected. Over Temperature Protection A three-phase temperature protection system has been installed for your safety.
Page 7: Battery Chemistry Selection
BATTERY CHEMISTRY SELECTION Our Battery Chemistry option lets you set the charging profile of batteries depending on their chemistry (AGM/Gel, Calcium, Wet, or LiFePO4). This must be done to ensure you maintain your battery effectively and maximise its performance. To do this, press the battery chemistry button until you have selected the correct battery type.
Page 8: Adjustable Charge Rate
ADJUSTABLE CHARGE RATE The charge rate of the BatteryCharge can be adjusted to accommodate batteries of varying sizes. Both the BC15 and BC25 are designed to charge 12V batteries only Attempting to charge batteries with higher current, exceeding what is specified in the battery manual, may damage the battery.
Page 9 Desulphation When a battery has not been charged for some time, the lead-sulphate within the battery hardens. The desulphation stage is used to break this down and start the process back to a full charge. The 1st green LED in the top row flashes to indicate when in Desulphation and is constant when complete.
Page 10: Charging Instructions
Float This final stage keeps the battery at optimum charge without overcharging or damage to the battery. This allows the battery to be connected to the charger at all times, if required. All 6 green LEDs in the top row are constantly lit when in Float mode. Note: If user connected a battery greater than 90AH to a BC15 (or 150AH to a BC25), Float mode may not necessarily mean that the battery has been fully charged.
