GLOSSARY
BBWC
This unit, permanently mounted on the battery, ensures that certain battery parameters can be
sent to the charger for the purposes of optimizing the charge and monitoring the charging and
discharging characteristics.
Charging Profile
The charging profile defines the rate of current charge over time. The charger adapts to the
battery’s age and level of discharge. Controlling the overcharge coefficient, whatever the
battery’s discharge level, reduces the amount of electricity consumed.
Cold Storage
This is a charging profile that allows the configuration of the charger for use with batteries in cold
storage application. The profile is an IEI (constant current, constant voltage, constant current)
type with a number of user configurable parameters.
Equalization Charging
Equalization charging, performed after normal charging, balances the electrolyte densities in the
battery’s cells.
Ionic Profile
Also called “ionic mixing”, this type of charging profile consists of sending short pulses of current
to stimulate gas formation in the active material, causing sulfuric acid to be distributed outside
the plates. This system of mixing the electrolyte enables more rapid charging of flooded cell
batteries subject to very high demands and balances out differences in density, homogenizing
the electrolyte across the surface of the plates.
Evolution Profile (EVLTN)
This charging profile is an I-E-I (constant current, constant voltage, constant current) charging
profile designed for Absorbed Glass Mat (AGM) type sealed lead-acid batteries.
ENVIROLINK™ Profile (ENVLNK)
This special profile is for charging ENVIROLINK™ Valve Regulated Lead-Acid (VRLA) batteries.
XFCBLC Profile
Advanced lead-acid battery design that provides longer service life, higher power density,
longer shelf life, and fast recharge capabilities.
