Kompernass T4X manual Safety / Operation

QProduct features

This appliance has been designed for charging a variety of SLA batteries (sealed lead acid batteries), as mainly used in cars, motorbikes and several other vehicles. They may be of types e.g. WET (with liquid electrolyte), GEL (with mit gel-type electolyte) or AGM (absorbed glass mat) batteries. Their capacity ranges from 12 V / 1.2 Ah to 12 V / 120 Ah.

A special design of the appliance (also named „three-phase-charging strategy“) enables the recharg- ing of the batttery to almost 100 % of its original capacity. Furthermore, a long-term connection of the battery to the charging station can take place to keep the battery in optimal condition when not in use, without it being damaged in the process.
