Storing Accumulators („Storage"); Discharging Accumulators („Discharge") - VOLTCRAFT VC-1506 Notice D'emploi

e) storing accumulators („storage")
This function can be used to set the accumulator to a certain voltage level, which is regarded as ideal for storage
(LiPo = 3.85V, LiIon = 3.75V, LiFe = 3.3V).
Depending on the cell voltage, the accumulator is either charged or discharged. Of course, with a multi-cell accumu-
lator pack, this only makes sense if a balancer connection is available.
The procedure of setting the current and the voltage/cell count is the same as with the normal charge process (see
chapter 11b).

f) discharging accumulators („dIsCharge")
Normally, it is not necessary to discharge lithium accumulators (contrary to NiCd accumulators). The accumulator
can be charged immediately independent of its current status.
If you still want to discharge such an accumulator, you can set the discharge current between 0.1A and 1.0A.
To be safe, the discharge current should not exceed 1C.
The final discharge voltage differs depending on the set accumulator type and already preset in the charger. In addi-
tion to the accumulator type, the display shows the corresponding voltage.
• LiPo: 3.0V per cell
• LiIon: 2.5V per cell
• LiFe: 2.0V per cell
Select the current and the voltage (number of cells) for the battery
pack connected. The current set is used both for charging and
for discharging to bring these cells to the optimum voltage for
storage.
