ePOWER Battery Charger Manual

CAUTION

RISK OF BATTERY AND EQUIPMENT DAMAGE.

Only the Flooded lead-acid can be equalised. Consult your battery manufacturer or read the battery

manual when you try to equalise your batteries.

Disconnect any DC load connected to the battery, as during equalise mode, the charger will produce 15.5V

to the batteries. You must monitor the battery specic gravity throughout the equalisation process to

determine the end of the equalising schedule.

Before setting the equalisation mode on the specic channel, please be sure the channel chosen for

battery equalisation is for a ooded battery type. When the battery equalisation is started, the charger will

automatically fully charge the selected channel rst and follow with 1 hour of equalisation. Check the

battery electrolyte level during the equalisation period. If necessary, rell with distilled water only. All

cells should have similar electrolyte levels. If distilled water is added, batteries must undergo a complete

charge cycle. The charger cannot determine when to terminate the equalisation of the battery. A one hour

time-out is set and this is used as a safety feature to require the user to continually re-activate it as

necessary after checking batteries manually.

During equalisation mode the other two banks are disabled.

Use the following procedure to setup the charger for battery equalisation.
