THE CHARGING PROCESS
The HFBC12 has a sophisticated computer system that performs a 7 stage
automatic charging cycle.
The stages of this charging cycle are as follows:
STAGE 1 DIAGNOSIS (UPON CONNECTION TO THE BATTERY)
• Polarity check: to make sure that the connections are correct.
• Battery check: to make sure that the battery can accept a charge and
is not faulty, if it is the charger will not attempt to charge the battery.
Warning LEDs will come on if either test fails.
STAGE 2 PRE-CHARGE
STAGE 3 SOFT START
STAGE 4 CONSTANT CURRENT
Charges a discharged battery at a constant current depending on charge
mode selection.
Charges until the battery is 80-90% re-charged.
STAGE 5 CV(CONSTANT VOLTAGE)
This is a charging cycle for batteries nearly full. It will top off the battery to a full
charge.
STAGE 6 RESTING
Cuts off automatically when a full charge is reached.
STAGE 7 RESTORING
Automatic On-off Monitoring. The charger will maintain and optimise the
battery indefinitely so long as it remains connected to the battery. If the
battery falls below 12.8V DC, the charger will restart at stage one.
