7-STAGE AUTOMATIC CHARGING

Thisisafullyautomaticbatterychargerwith7chargestages.

Automaticchargingprotectsyourbatteryfrombeingoverchargedsoyoucanleavethe

charger connected to the battery indefinitely.

7-stagechargingisaverycomprehensiveandaccuratechargingtechniquethatgives

your battery longer life and better performance compared to using traditional chargers.

Projecta’s Intelli-Charge chargers can be adjusted to suit a number of different battery

typesincludingGEL,AGM,WETandCalcium.Thechargerscanalsohelprestoredrained

and sulphated batteries.

The7chargestagesare:

Desulphation;SoftStart;Bulk;Absorption;Analysis;ReconditionandFloat.

1. DESULPHATION

Rejuvenates sulphated

batteries with a high

frequency pulse.

2. SOFT START

Increases battery life

by gently starting to

charge the battery.

3. BULK CHARGE

Reduces charging

time by delivering

maximum charge to

set voltage.

4. ABSORPTION

Ensures a full

charge to the

battery without

overcharging.

EQUALISATION

(Calcium mode only)

Returns a full

hydrometer reading

to calcium batteries

by removing acid

stratification.

5. ANALYSIS

Tests the battery to

ensure fully charged.

6. RECONDITION

Restores battery

health to deeply

discharged batteries

by equalising

the cells.

7. FLOAT

Float charge

maintains the

battery at 100%

charge.

(AMPS)

DESULPHATION

TheDesulphationstageisdesignedtobreakdownsulphationoccurringinbatteries

thathavebeenleftflatforextendedperiodsoftime,returningthembacktofullcharge.

Sulphationoccurswhenlead-sulphatehardensandclogsupthebatterycells.

SOFT START

Thisisapreliminarychargeprocessthatgentlyintroducespowertothebattery,

protecting the battery and increasing battery life.

BULK (CONSTANT CURRENT)

TheBulkstagereduceschargingtimebychargingthebatteryatthemaximum

rate(constantcurrent)toasetvoltage,atwhichpointthebatteryisapproximately

80% charged.

ABSORPTION (CONSTANT VOLTAGE)

Theabsorptionstagechargesthebatteryto100%byadjustingthechargerateallowing

thebatterytoabsorbmorepower.

EQUALISATION (CALCIUM MODE ONLY)

Designedespeciallyforcalciumbatteries,thisstagereturnscalciumbatteriestofull

servicebyremovingacidstratificationoftheelectrolyte.

ANALYSIS

Theanalysismodeteststhebatterytoensurethatithastakenthecharge;ifthe

batterypassesthetestthechargerwillproceedtothefloatstage,butifthebattery

failsthetest,thechargerwillapplyareconditionchargetotrytoreturnthebattery

to full charge.

RECONDITION

If after charging, the battery is unable to hold the charge the battery reconditioning

functionisinitiatedautomatically.Thisismostlikelytotakeplaceonbatteriesthat

havebeendeeplydischarged,priortocharging.TheReconditionmodewillthenrun

for4hoursandattheendwillretestthebattery.TheIntelli-Chargebatterycharger

willperformthereconditionchargeupto3timesbeforeswitchingthechargingcycle

toFloatwithanerrorindication.

FLOAT

TheFloatstagemaintainsthebatteryat100%chargewithoutoverchargingor

damagingthebattery.Thismeansthechargercanbeleftconnectedtothebattery

indefinitely.
