11. EQ—Battery Equalize
The intent of an equalization charge is to bring all battery cells to an equal voltage. Sealed batteries
should not be equalized unless specically instructed by the manufacturer. Shut o or minimize all
loads on the battery. When equalizing, be sure the EQ voltage will not damage any still energized DC
load. If possible, ensure the EQ cycle starts and stops the same day it is initiated or unnecessary battery
gassing will occur.
• Occasional equalization extends the life of ooded electrolyte batteries.
• Proceed with caution! A vent fan is recommended in enclosed spaces.
• The FLEXmax 80 allows the user to set voltages and times of equalization process.
• Both manual and auto modes are available.
• EQ voltage is
not battery temperature compensated.
•
Always check the electrolyte level in the batteries before and after equalizing.
