10.3. 10.3. Using the TempCo Option Using the TempCo Option
When ATevo is equipped with a temperature compensation probe, it auto-adjusts output
voltage applied to the battery to keep float current constant, thereby avoiding overcharging
and undercharging.
The probe senses battery temperature variation and adjusts output float/equalize voltages to
compensate. If battery temperature increases, ATevo's output voltage decreases. If you are
experiencing any inconsistencies in ATevo when the probe is installed, temporarily disable the
TempCo Option per Section
NOTES NOTES
• Set Float Voltage and Equalize Voltage to the values recommended by the battery
manufacturer for 77 °F / 25 °C.
• When you enter or adjust Float or Equalize voltage, the front panel meter displays the 77
°F / 25 °C value, even if the battery is warmer or cooler than 77 °F / 25 °C.
• ATevo's actual output voltage may be different from the set point, if the battery is warmer
or cooler than 77 °F / 25 °C.
• Use a digital multi-meter to measure the actual dc output voltage. Determine
temperature at the compensation probe, and use the graph in
output voltage is correct.
• If battery temperature falls below 32 °F / 0 °C, there will be no further increase in ATevo
output voltage. Likewise, if battery temperature rises above 122 °F / 50 °C, there will be
no further decrease in output voltage.
10.3.1. 10.3.1. HOME HOME Screen with TempCo Option Screen with TempCo Option
Additional parameters appear on the HOME SCREEN when the TempCo option is installed and
enabled.
• The LARGE FONT voltage value is the actual charger output voltage, compensated for the
present battery temperature.
• Present battery temperature (in °C) appears in small font to the right of the actual
charger voltage.
• The charger set point voltage (at 25 °C) appears in small font directly below the present
battery temperature.
