14. s refer to these charger specifications amp your battery documentation for proper switch and charge currents to determine compatibility with this charger o When charging a larger capacity battery it is possible the current will never reduce sufficiently for the charger to enter float mode Should this occur the battery may become damaged due to over charging In such a case the capacity is too great and the battery should be charged with a higher current charger or a parallel charger o When charging a smaller capacity battery the battery may be undercharged because the charger switches into float charge mode too early relative to Xenotronix TLI 3 Artisan Technology Group Quality Instrumentation Guaranteed 888 88 SOURCE www artisantg com HPX60 User s Manual capacity Leave the battery connected to the charger for 16 24 hours to finish charging in the float charge mode or have a unit made with a custom switch current to match the battery capacity Xenotronix TLI can make custom units or modify our existing units to exactly match your charging needs Call our sales department for technical information and pricing Following are some of the modifications we can perform Reduce charge current to match your battery capacity Change switch point to match battery and charge rate Adjust float and charge voltages for special conditions or batteries Make charger into a float charger single stage Make charger into a para
