7.5 Battery Charging Stages

The controller employs a three-stage battery charging algorithm: Bulk Charging, Constant Charging (Equalize and Boost), and Float Charging. This method extends battery lifespan.

  1. Bulk Charging: The battery voltage has not yet reached constant voltage. The controller operates in constant current mode, delivering maximum current (MPPT Charging).
  2. Constant Charging: Once the battery voltage reaches the constant voltage set point, the controller switches to constant charging mode. MPPT charging stops, and the charging current gradually drops. This stage includes Equalize Charging (on the 28th of each month) and Boost Charging (default 2 hours).
  3. Float Charging: After constant charging, the controller reduces battery voltage to the float charging preset voltage by reducing current. The battery is weakly charged to maintain a fully charged state. If load power exceeds solar array power, the controller will no longer maintain float charging. The system exits float charging and re-enters bulk charging if battery voltage drops below the boost voltage reconnect voltage.

DANGER (Equalize Charging):

Explosion hazard! Equalizing FLD batteries would produce explosive gases, so well ventilation of the battery box is recommended.

NOTICE (Equalize Charging):

  • Equalization may increase battery voltage to levels that damage sensitive DC loads. Verify that the load's allowable input voltages are greater than the equalize charging voltage.
  • Over-charging and excessive gas precipitation may damage battery plates. Too high or too long equalization can cause damage. Review battery requirements carefully.

7.6 Load Modes

The controller offers multiple load work modes. When the LCD shows the load type interface, operate as follows:

  1. Press the SELECT button to jump to the load type interface.
  2. Press and hold the ENTER button until the load type interface flashes.
