Cell-Con provides a safe and effective Lead Acid battery charger solution
for charging SLA batteries using a 3 step charge algorithm. In the first
phase, the charger will fill the battery to 80-90% capacity. Once at this
level, the charger goes into the second phase to fill the remaining 10-20%
of capacity until a low level current is detected or a timer expires (depending
upon the specific model). The third and final phase reduces the charge
current to a safe level where the battery can be left attached to the
charger indefinately.
Unlike traditional ‘taper’ chargers, Cell-Con
Lead Acid battery chargers utilize a constant current level in the first
mode. When the battery voltage rises to the maximum cycle voltage during
charging, the chargers do not immediately change to float mode. Instead,
the charger will look for a low level current (current detection) or the
expiration of time to terminate constant voltage mode. When the constant
voltage mode begins, the battery is already charged to 80-90% of full
capacity and can be used at this point if desired. Allowing phase two
to conclude ensures that the battery will receive the remaining 10-20%
capacity.
Once the low level current is detected, or the timer expires, the constant
voltage level of theLead Acid battery charger is reduced to a safe value
(going into float mode) where the battery can be left on indefinately
without risk of overcharge.
