If “solar first” is selected as output source priority and battery is not connected, solar energy and the utility will provide the loads. Power from utility. Power from battery and PV energy. PV energy will supply power to the loads and charge battery at the same time.
Battery Equalization Description Battery equalization function is built into the charge controller. It reverses the buildup of negative chemical effects such as stratification, a condition where acid concentration is greater at the bottom of the battery than at the top. Equalization also helps to remove sulfate crystals that may have built up on the plates. If left unchecked, this condition, called sulfation, will reduce the overall capacity of the battery.
However, in Equalize Mode, if the battery equalization timer runs out and the battery voltage doesn’t recover to the battery equalization voltage point, the charge controller will extend the battery equalized time until battery voltage achieves equalization voltage. If the battery voltage is still lower than equalization voltage when the extension runs out, the charge controller will stop equalization and return to the floating charging stage.
