Indicators - Cristec CPS3 Serie Manual Del Usuario

U Boost: BOOST voltage (see table above)
U Floating: Floating voltage (see table above: voltage with no BOOST)
T Boost: BOOST maximum duration (see table above)
Boost phase: starts up automatically when the charger is turned on if the battery is flat. The current is
then at maximum output.
Absorption phase: begins when the voltage has reached the maximum BOOST level. The current level
starts falling.
These two phases combined last a maximum of T
20% of rated current, the floating phase automatically kicks in. Duration and current intensity depend on
how charged the battery is.
Floating phase: starts after T
The voltage switches to the Floating value and the rated current continues to drop.
BOOST in OFF position
With this setting, the CPS3 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.
