4-Stage Charging

Bulk Charge Stage

In Bulk charging stage, the battery is not at 100% state of charge and battery voltage has not yet charged to the Absorption voltage setpoint. The controller will deliver 100% of available solar power to recharge the battery.

Absorption Stage

When the battery has recharged to the Absorption voltage setpoint, constant-voltage regulation is used to maintain battery voltage at the Absorption setpoint. This prevents heating and excessive battery gassing. The battery is allowed to come to full state of charge at the Absorption voltage setpoint. The Absorption setpoint is temperature compensated if the RTS is connected.

Float Stage

After the battery is fully charged in the Absorption stage, the MPPT reduces the battery voltage to the Float voltage setpoint. When the battery is fully recharged, there can be no more chemical reactions and all the charging current is turned into heat and gassing. The float stage provides a very low rate of maintenance charging while reducing the heating and gassing of afully charged battery. The purpose of float is to protect the battery from long-term overcharge.

Equalize Stage

The equalization stage will work 2 hours per month,this will extend the lifespan of the battery a lot.
