Intelligent Battery Care

Safety instructions. Keepower chargers can be used to charge lead-acid batteries only (wet, gel, AGM, Ca/Ca…) Don’t use them to Ni-Cd, Ni-MH, Li-Poly and other types of batteries.

Battery. Parameters 1. Nominal voltage 2. Capacity 3. Battery type 4. Battery voltage while not used 5. Maximum voltage while charging 6. Maximum charging current 7. Electrolyte gravity

Battery. Parameters Nominal voltage [V] • 6 V (3 cels) • 12 V (6 cells) • 24 V (2 batteries 12 V conected parallely) Never use 12 V charger to charge 6 V or 24 V battery!

Battery. Parameters Capacity [Ah] Capacity says how much energy a battery can store. Charging current [A] depends on the battery capacity. Smaller batteries have to be charged with smaller charging currents.

Battery. Parameters Battery types • Wet- (flooded) battery- electrolyte flows freely throughout the battery cell • Gel- diluted sulfuric acid is solidyfied to gel state by adding gel agent e. g. silicon dioxide • • AGM- electrolyte is absorbed by glass mat separator placed between plates Ca/Ca - plates and grids contain calcium preventing quick selfdischarging and rising gas limit voltage

Battery. Parameters Battery voltage [V] while not used Measuring voltage on the battery while not used user can verify battery condition. 12 V battery voltage facts: • 11. 8 V –deeply discharged • 12. 0 V-discharged • 12. 2 V-low charged • 12. 4 V –medium charged • 12. 7 -fully charged

Battery. Parameters Battery voltage [V] while not used Measuring voltage on the battery while not used user can verify battery condition. Battery voltage for charge level % Battery voltage [V] 11. 99 & Below 12. 00 to 12. 19 12. 20 to 12. 39 12. 40 to 12. 59 12. 60 to 12. 74 12. 75 & Above Charge level % Empty 25 to 50 50 to 75 75 to 85 85 to 100 Note: The state of charge is an approximation. The relationship between state of charge and voltage vary by battery condition, battery age, temperature.

Battery. Parameters Maximum voltage [V] while charging Maximum voltage (gas limit) 1. 2. 3. 4. Wet (flooded) 14. 4 V Gel 14. 4 V AGM 14. 8 V Ca/Ca 15. 9 V All Keepower chargers finish charging at gas limit voltage automatically. Charging over the gas limit voltage can damage the battery. Overcharging is especially dangerous for the health of gel and AGM batteries. Overcharged battery produce oxygene and hydrogen giving a dangerous explosive mixture.

Battery. Parameters Maximum charging current [A] To prevent damage the battery should be charged with current [A] not exceeding maximum recomended current by the batteries producer. Usually the maximum charging current is bigger for a battery with a bigger capacity.

Battery. Parameters. Maximum charging current [A] Charging current can’t exceed „ 3 h” current. For 120 Ah we can calculate maximum charging current: 120 Ah: 3 h=40 A Using higher charging current we can destroy the battery (separators and plates) due to rising electrolyte temperature.

Battery. Parameters Electrolyte gravity In batteries with access to cells electrolyte gravity can be measured by aerometer. Result gives important information regarding battery condition. Fully charged battery has electrolyte gravity 1. 28 g/cm 3 (normal gravity). Not fully charged battery has lower gravity of electrolyte. Low gravity (lower than normal) - battery needs charging.

Battery. Parameters Electrolyte gravity Higher gravity (higher than normal)battery lost water by overcharging (gassing). The Battery can be sulfurized because of too high gravity of acid. Separators can be destroyed as well. Battery with low acidic gravity can freeze below zero. Battery case can be destroyed from inside by ice. A frozen battery won’t work or be charged.

Battery. Parameters Electrolyte gravity. Charge (power) level. Temperature.

Important things to remember when buying a charger Do you…. 1. Do you want to charge all lead-acid battery types (wet, gel, AGM etc. ) with one unit? 2. Do you want to charge 12 V or 24 V batteries using one device? 3. Do you want to save time leaving the charger connected to the battery unattended ? 4. Do you want to be able to charge deeply discharged batteries with voltage 0 V ?

Important things to remember when buying a charger Do you…. 8. Do you want to be able to „kick” sulfurizated battery to start receiving energy? 9. Do you want to be able to keep the voltage on your car while replacing the battery or without the engine running (dealer station)? 10. Do you want to verify battery condition with your charger? 11. Do you want to be environmental friendly using charger with high efficiency level?

Important things to remember when buying a charger Choosing chargers that can say YES to all points. ☺☺☺
