No damage incurred by reverse polarity.
The BC Series will stop charging any bank that has a
voltage greater than + 0.5 V over the temperature
compensated absorption voltage. It will restart when
this voltage is + 0.2 V.

Internal charger temperature is measured. Unit shuts
down and restarts as follows:
•
Over-temperature shutdown at 75 °C (167 °F)
•
Over-temperature restart at 70 °C (158 °F)
Rated current to 50 °C (122 °F)
2%/ °C derating above 50 °C (122 °F)
Battery temperature, as sensed by the battery
temperature sensor (if installed), results in the
charger no longer charging the individual battery or
bank at a battery temperature of 55 °C (131 °F).
