Indicators - philippi ACE 12V/25A Manuel Utilisateur

REFRESH phase :
It is an automatic weekly cycle in order to prevent battery self-discharging and possible sulphation and then
to optimize the battery life duration.
It will occur only after a complete recharge cycle (BOOST, ABSORPTION and FLOATING).
The charger will generate automatically a safe timed voltage step every 7 days.
Phase REBOOST :
It is also automatic and consists in coming back to a BOOST voltage if the DC utilizations require it (i.e. after
a complete recharge cycle BOOST, ABSORPTION and FLOATING if a some DC constant consumptions are
detected the charger will restart a new complete charge cycle including a BOOST phase).
This REBOOST phase will be authorized after a sense of the certain battery voltage during a determined
duration.
BOOST in OFF position
With this setting, the ACE charger produces a single-stage UI type load curve. It generates a constant
voltage, supplying the current required by the battery(ies). Recharging time depends on the state of the
battery, being longer than when the BOOST is in the ON position.
