Description of Features
Multi-Voltage Charging — The Eclipse II with
EC2000 Control provides the capability to charge
batteries of different cell sizes. With the Multi-Cell
Mode ON, the charger automatically selects the
proper output voltage. A 24 cell Eclipse II will
safely charge 24, 18, 12, 9, and 6 cell batteries.
An 18 cell Eclipse II will safely charge 18, 12,
9, and 6 cell batteries. A 12 cell Eclipse II will
safely charge 12, 9, and 6 cell batteries.
Fixed mode operation can be selected by program-
ming Multi-Cell mode to OFF. In this mode the
charger will charge only batteries of the cell size
programmed into the Fixed-Cell size function.
If the battery is equipped with Prestolite BID Mod-
ule, the Multi-Cell ON or OFF function will be over-
ridden and the charger will charge the battery if it is
within the charger output rating.
Multi-Ampere-Hour Charging — The Eclipse II
with EC2000 Control provides the capability of
charging batteries of different cell sizes at the
proper charge rates. Fixed Mode can be selected by
programming an amp hour rating into the Fixed AH
size function that is less than the charger ampere-
hour nameplate rating. The output current will be
adjusted to deliver current at the proper rate.
If the battery is equipped with a Prestolite BID Mod-
ule, the Multi-Ampere-Hour function will be overrid-
den and the charger will charge the battery at the
rate programmed into the BID Module (BID Module
programming is performed at the factory based on
information provided by the customer) if it is within
the charger output rating. If the BID and battery
ampere-hour rating are greater than the charger
rating, the charger will charge the battery at the
nameplate amp hour rating.
Multi-AH Programming Feature – The Multi-AH
Programming Feature allows the control to be
programmed to charge different voltage batteries
with the AH rates and curve types that have been
programmed for that battery voltage. When a bat-
tery is connected, the control automatically senses
the battery voltage and sets the charge curve and
charging rates to the level that has been pro-
grammed.
If the battery is equipped with a Prestolite BID
Module, the Multi-Ampere-Hour function and Multi-
AH Programming will be overridden and the charger
will charge the battery at the rate programmed into
the BID Module (BID Module programming is per-
formed at the factory based on information provided
by the customer) if it is within the charger output
rating. If the BID and battery ampere-hour rating are
greater than the charger rating, the charger will
charge the battery at the nameplate amp hour rat-
ing.
Temperature Compensation — The Eclipse II with
EC2000 Control is capable of modifying the output
voltage to compensate for ranges of battery electro-
lyte temperatures from 32 to 132 degrees F. Be-
cause the 80% percent point is based on reaching a
point on the charge curve rather than a single volt-
age, it is automatically adjusted with the output volt-
age.
CAUTION: Consult your batteries
manufacturer for the recommended
maximum battery temperature for
your battery.
