2.4Discharge

NOTE 1: Do not place batteries on the Temp-Plate during discharge. Due to the normal heating of the battery a false Overtemp may be generated later during the charge process.

NOTE 2: Do not attempt to discharge with the voltage mode selector in the Float or Peak voltage modes. Voltage and current faults will occur depending on the battery voltage and the cell selector setting.

2.4.1.Number of Cells

2.4.1.1.Enter the number of cells.

2.4.1.2.Ignore this step if FULL DISCHARGE is to be selected.

2.4.2.Total Time

2.4.2.1.Enter the TOTAL TIME.

2.4.2.2.Verify that the Timer Speed is consistent with the required elapsed time.

2.4.2.3.Enter the DISCHARGE CURRENT.

2.4.2.4.Depress the Blue button for DISCHARGE with automatic cut-off (ANALYSIS), or the RED button for FULL DISCHARGE (DEEP CYCLE).

2.4.2.5.DISCHARGE will terminate automatically (CYCLE END) when the (TOTAL) time selected is reached or (CAPACITY FAILURE) if the BATTERY voltage reaches the equivalent of ONE VOLT per CELL prior to the selected time.

2.4.2.6.NOTE: Battery voltage is ignored during Full Discharge.

2.4.2.7.Discharge will terminate as a FAULT if the MONITOR CIRCUIT detects:

•An overheating of the discharge transistors (OVERHEAT FAULT).

•That the discharge current differs from the programmed value by more than one AMP (CURRENT FAULT).

•That the programmed current exceeds 30A for a battery voltage in excess of 32V.
