Battery Management

Battery

Disconnection

An optional feature that allows

voltage disconnection of batteries.

Boost

Charging

Manual time controlled or

automatic boost charging with

adjustable time and voltage levels.

Battery Test

Automatic or manual testing of

batteries up to four times per year.

Variables include: test duration, end

voltage, Ah, and allowable

symmetry variation.
