11 CYCLES CHARGING ALGORITHM – LEAD-ACID BATTERIES (STD/MF/AGM/EFB/CA-CA):
Step 1 - Initial Battery Check: it verifies that one or more battery cells are not short-circuited and therefore
the battery is a proper condition to be recharged / recovered.
Step 2 - Recovery: if the battery is extremely discharged (starting from 1.25V), the device tries to recover it,
in order to bring it to a higher voltage compatible with the following step.
Step 3 – Battery and Cells Short Circuit Check: it checks that the battery cells are not short-circuited before
switching to the following step. To skip this test, select "Bat.Test OFF" in the Safety menu.
Step 4 - Soft Charge: if the battery is significantly undercharged, the device provides a light pulsing current
to the battery, in order to overcome this critical phase.
Step 5 - Battery and Cells Short Circuit Check: it checks that the battery cells are not short-circuited before
switching to the following step. To skip this test, select "Bat.Test OFF" in the Safety menu.
Step 6 - Bulk Charge: during this cycle the battery charger provides full current to the battery, which can
recover in this step up to 85-90% of its capacity.
Step 7 - Battery and Cells Short Circuit Check: it checks that the battery cells are not short-circuited before
switching to the following step. To skip this test, select "Bat.Test OFF" in the Safety menu.
Step 8 - Desulphation / Absorption: in this step the device provides the battery with a "controlled
overcharge" in order to restore the remaining 10-15% of the battery capacity, through the desulphation /
recovery of the lead-acid cells (for mild or medium sulphation levels). It is possible to skip this charging
cycle by setting "Desulphation OFF" in the menu Mode -> Charger.
Step 9 - Battery Check at End of the Charging Cycle: the device stops providing current for a few tens of
minutes and verifies that the battery is able to retain the charge received during the previous charging
cycles. The test is periodically repeated at regular intervals during maintenance.
Step 10 - Maintenance: thanks to a specially designed electronic circuit, the device maintains the battery
fully charged during periods of inactivity, sen without any overheating, overcharging or electrolyte loss.
Step 11 - Equalization: during long term maintenance, the device executes an equalization process each 30
days to re-balance the battery cells, avoiding the electrolyte stratification.

switching to the following step. To skip this test, select "Bat.Test OFF" in the Safety menu.
Step 8 - Equalization: the device recovers the remaining 10-15% of the battery capacity, and re-balances
the state of charge of the different battery cells.
Step 9 - Battery Check at End of the Charging Cycle: the device stops providing current for a few tens of
minutes and verifies that the battery is able to retain the charge received during the previous charging
cycles. The test is periodically repeated at regular intervals during maintenance.
Step 10 - Maintenance: thanks to a specially designed electronic circuit, the device maintains the battery
fully charged during periods of inactivity, sen without any overheating or overcharging.
