Effect on
charging
With the BTS, the charging setpoints are temperature-compensated up to
140 °F (60 °C). If the battery temperature exceeds 140 °F the charger
stops charging. The BTS also provides more accurate compensation over
a wider range of temperatures than the front panel temperature settings.
For example, with the switch in the HOT position, the charger
compensation is equivalent to the BTS compensation at 95 °F (35 °C). At
95 °F, absorption voltage for a gel battery is reduced to 13.8 VDC. At
122 °F (50 °C) the absorption voltage for the same battery is reduced to
13.4 VDC if the BTS is installed. It would still be at 13.8 VDC if you are
just using the temperature setting switch.
Remote Display Panel
The Remote Display Panel allows you to monitor battery charger activity
away from the charger whenever Truecharge+ is operating. The panel
displays the total charging current and the voltages of the two batteries or
battery banks connected to the two positive terminals closest to the
negative terminal.
The insert card which accompanies the panel provides the directions for
installing it.
