Battery Charging Reference

Battery Charger Interruption

If battery charging is interrupted in bulk charge (for example, AC is disconnected, or a fault occurs), the unit will return to bulk charge when battery charging resumes.

If battery charging is interrupted in any stage other than bulk, the unit will go to float charge when battery charging resumes.

However, a new bulk charge cycle is initiated when battery charging begins, if:

the battery drops below 12.5 Vdc for 15 minutes (VF2) i.e., the

15-minute countdown is independent of mode: for example, inverting, bulk charging, or float charging, and

7 days have passed from the time the charger completed Absorption (ΔTF).
