32. FLEXmax 80 MULTI-STAGE BATTERY CHARGING

The FLEXmax 80 charge controller is a sophisticated, multi-stage battery charger that uses several regulation stages to allow fast recharging of the battery system while ensuring a long battery life. This process can be used with both sealed and non-sealed batteries. The FLEXmax 80 has a preset recharging voltage set points (Absorb & Float) for the selected nominal battery voltage, however, always follow the battery manufacturer’s recommended charging regulation voltages. The FLEXmax 80 charging regulation stages correspond to the chart in Figure 10.
