The charging process will start with max power – I Phase.
The current will drop as the battery is recharged. The
charging time is determined by the battery size and the
degree of discharge.
When the threshold value (BR) is reached, the internal timer
will start the U" phase of the charging process. The U2
phase keeps the charger in the higher charging voltage
(14,4V/28,8V) in 4 hours. This ensures recharge and
equalize the charge in all battery cells. This action also
prevents sulfating of the battery.
Maintenance charge, the voltage drops to 13,7V (27,5V).
This loading phase keeps the battery fully charged and the
charger can be left switched on in this position over time.
Possible parallel load or consumption is supplied from the
charger and the battery is kept fully charged. The battery
charger can provide full power in this phase.
