3.0 Setup
Set Final Charge Stage = Silent – Silent mode stops charging once it
transitions from Absorb mode to ‘Silent’. Once the charger enters Silent
mode the battery voltage is continuously monitored. If the batteries
fall to the Set DC Volts to Rebulk value, the charger restarts the Bulk
Charge mode and then transitions to Absorb Charge mode. After the
Absorb Charge mode, the charger again transitions to Silent mode. This
silent to rebulk to absorb and back to silent cycle will continue as long
as it is required.
Set DC Volts to ReBulk – When Silent mode is selected, you must
also set the DC voltage set-point where the charger restarts the Bulk
Charge mode. This setting should be at the lowest DC volts you want the
batteries to fall before starting a new bulk charge. Typically, the lowest
DC volts the batteries are allowed to fall is 12.0 to 12.2 VDC (12-volt
systems), 24.0 to 24.4 VDC (24-volt systems), and 48.0 to 48.8 VDC
(48-volt systems) respectively.
Default setting: Set DC Volts to ReBulk = 12.0
Ranges: 12.0-16.0 VDC (12v), 24.0-32.0 VDC (24v), 48.0-64.0 VDC (48v)
Why should I use the Silent Stage? Silent mode is typically used when
an alternate charge source is available and able to fully charge or fi nish
the charge cycle after the Absorb stage. A major difference between
Multi mode and Silent mode is that the Silent mode returns to Bulk mode
instead of Float mode. In Silent mode you can also adjust the Rebulk
set-point in order to allow the alternate charge source to provide more
of the battery charging.
