Charging
Cycle Applications: Limit initial current to 19.5A. Charge until battery voltage (under
charge) reaches 13.90 to 14.20 volts at 68°F (20°C). Hold at 13.90 to 14.20
volts until current drops to under 650mA. Battery is fully charged under these
conditions, and charger should be disconnected or switched to “oat” voltage.
“Float” or “Stand-By” Service: Hold battery across constant voltage source of 13.50
to 13.80 volts continuously. When held at this voltage, the battery will seek its own
current level and maintain itself in a fully charged condition.
Note: Due to the self-discharge characteristics, it is imperative that they be charged
within 6 months of storage, otherwise permanent loss of capacity might occur as a
result of sulfation.
Chargers
Power-Sonic offers a wide range of chargers suitable for batteries up to 100AH.
Please refer to the Charger Selection Guide in our specication sheets for “C-Series
Switch Mode Chargers” and “Transformer Type A and F Series”. Please contact our
Technical department for advice if you have difculty in locating suitable models.

Charging is not
necessary unless
100% of capacity
is required.
Charging before
use is necessary
to help recover
full capacity.
Charge may fail
to restore full
capacity. Do not
let batteries reach
this state.
