Battery Charge Stages and Meanings
Bulk MPPT
This stage of the Classic means; that the Classic will be putting out as much current as it can trying to
charge the batteries to the absorb voltage set point. This is also known as constant current mode.
Absorb
This stage means that the Classic will maintain the absorb set point voltage until the batteries are charged
or it reach Float stage. At this stage the classic is not putting out maximum current, as that would increase
the battery voltage over the Absorb set point. This is also referred to as constant voltage mode.
The absorb time is proportional to the bulk time. (i.e. the time bulk takes to reach the absorb voltage.) The
battery it‘s considered ―full‖ at the end of the absorb charge cycle.
