helpful if this powerful charger applies charging on a small capacity battery bank.
The max charging current decreases according to the input AC voltage.
There are three main charging stages:
Bulk Charging: This is the initial stage of charging. While Bulk Charging, the charger supplies the battery
with controlled constant current. The charger will remain in Bulk charge until the Absorption charge voltage
(determined by the Battery Type selection) is achieved.
Software timer will measure the time from charger start until the battery charger reaches 0.3V below the
boost voltage, then take this time as T0 and T0×10 = T1.
Absorb Charging: This is the second charging stage and begins after the absorb voltage has been reached.
Absorb Charging provides the batteries with a constant voltage and reduces the DC charging current in order
to maintain the absorb voltage setting.
In this period, the inverter will start a T1 timer; the charger will keep the boost voltage in Boost CV mode
until the T1 timer has run out. Then drop the voltage down to the float voltage. The timer has a minimum
time of 1 hour and a maximum time of 12 hours. When charging current reduces to below 0.01C, the charger
will go to the float charge.
Float Charging: The third charging stage occurs at the end of the Absorb Charging time. While Float
charging, the charge voltage is reduced to the float charge voltage (determined by the Battery Type
selection*). In this stage, the batteries are kept fully charged and ready if needed by the inverter.
If the battery type is selected as “lithium battery”, our charger will drastically reduce the charging current to
zero once float voltage is reached.
The charging capacity will go to peak in around 3 seconds, this may probably cause a generator to drop
frequency, making inverter transfer to battery mode.
It is suggested to gradually put charging load on the generator by switching the charging switch from min to
max, together with the 15s switch delay, our inverter gives the generator enough time to spin up.
To guarantee the best performance of AC charger when the AC input is from a
generator, the standby generator should be of at least 150% higher capacity than the
inverter.
Warning! Operation with an under-rated generator or generator with unqualified
wave form may cause premature failure which is not under warranty.
