Charger Settings in Stacked Configuration
The
includes a maximum 150A charger.
When using two stacked
connected to the same battery bank, a total of 300A
(150A 2) of bulk charging is possible into that single
common battery bank. For small battery banks and/or certain
battery types this bulk mode current may be too high,
therefore
models include a battery bank capacity
(
) setting and a maximum charge rate (%)
(
) setting.
The battery bank capacity ( ) is the bank's total Amp-hour
capacity, which is best determined by a qualified electrical
technician.
The
depends on the battery manufacturer's
maximum charge rate for the specific battery model being
used to construct the bank. This total bank maximum charge
rate is best determined by a qualified electrical technician.
Suitable battery types include Flooded, GEL and AGM.

EXPLOSION HAZARD
Do not mix different battery types within the same battery bank.

RISK OF SHORTENED BATTERY LIFE
Do not exceed the battery manufacturer's recommended maximum charge
specifications because the resulting battery temperature rise shortens
battery life.
Failure to follow these instructions can damage the unit and/or damage
other equipment.
