or the Inverter / Charger is turned off and turned on again. Therefore, the function will only be activated when the user wants to use
it, every time the IC Series is turned off the equalization setting will default to INACTIVE.
Equalizing batteries produces hydrogen and oxygen gas. Ensure the battery compartment has adequate ventilation to dissipate this
gas to avoid explosions.
Ensure your batteries can be equalized - only equalize batteries that can be equalized. Consult your battery manufacturer for further
information. Equalizing batteries not designed for equalizing can permanently damage them.
Gel and AGM2 battery types are not permitted for equalizing.
Whilst using the equalizing function it is advised not to connect loads to the AC Output, because this will reduce the charging voltage
and prevent the
Inverter/Charger
Ensure the DC loads will not be damaged by the higher voltage applied to the batteries during the equalize charge. It is advised to
disconnect the DC loads to prevent damage.
It is recommended to equalize batteries periodically depending on usage rates ranging from once or twice per year to once a month.
Consult your battery manufacturer for further information.

The equalize setting is used to remove sulfates that may have built up on
the plates within the battery. The build up of sulfates on the battery plates
can reduce the overall capacity of the battery.
Equalizing batteries involves carrying out a controlled overcharge of the
batteries, after the batteries have been fully charged.
Equalize charging is activated by selecting active. The charging cycle will
then follow the following sequence: BULK - ABS - EQU - FINAL. The max-
imum equalization stage time is 4 hours and the IC Series will enter final
charging state after the equalization time is complete. Equalization charging
will be automatically switched off when AC shore power is disconnected
The rebulk voltage setting is used to set a DC voltage set point when the
silent final charge is selected in the 07 - final charge option. This setting
should be the lowest DC volts you want the batteries to fall before starting
a new bulk charge cycle. Typically the lowest DC volts the batteries are
allowed to fall is 12.0 to 12.2 VDC.
The default setting is 12.1V and the range is 12.0 - 16.0 VDC (Increments
by 0.1 VDC).
