By default, boost charging generally lasts for 2h, but users can adjust preset values
of duration and boost voltage point according to the actual needs. When the duration
reaches the set value, the system will then switch to floating charging.
Equalizing charging
Warning: risk of explosion!
In equalizing charging, an open lead-acid battery can produce explosive gas, therefore the
battery chamber shall have good ventilation conditions.
Note: risk of equipment damage!
Equalizing charging may raise the battery voltage to a level that may cause damage
to sensitive DC loads. Check and make sure that allowable input voltages of all the
loads in the system are greater than the set value for battery equalizing charging.
Note: risk of equipment damage!
Overcharge or too much gas generated may damage battery plates and cause active
material on the battery plates to scale off. Equalizing charging to an excessively
high level or for too long a period may cause damage. Read carefully the actual
requirements of the battery deployed in the system.
Some types of batteries benefit from regular equalizing charging which can stir the
electrolyte, balance the battery voltage and finish the electrochemical reaction. Equalizing
charging raises the battery voltage to a higher level than the standard supply voltage and
gasify the battery electrolyte. If the controller then automatically steers the battery into
equalizing charging, the charging duration is 120 mins (default). In order to avoid too
much generated gas or battery overheat, equalizing charging and boost charging won’t
repeat in one complete charging cycle.
