• Be careful when working with large lead acid batteries. Wear eye protection and have
fresh water available in case there is contact with the battery acid.
• Over-charging and excessive gas precipitation may damage the battery plates and
activate material shedding on them. Too high of an equalizing charge or too long of one
may cause damage. Please carefully review the specific requirements of the battery
used in the system.
• Equalization is carried out only for non-sealed / vented / flooded / wet cell lead acid
batteries.
• Do NOT equalize VRLA type AGM / Gel / Lithium cell batteries UNLESS permitted by
battery manufacturer.
WARNING:Connect battery terminals to the charge controller BEFORE connecting the solar
panel(s) to the charge controller.NEVER connect solar panels to charge controller until the battery
is connected.
WARNING:Once equalization is active in the battery charging, it will not exit this stage unless
there is adequate charging current from the solar panel. There should be NO load on the batteries
when in equalization charging stage.
