InstallatIon & operatIon
C. Float Voltage This is the Float Voltage Regulation Set Point. It will be displayed in
Screen 5 of LCD Display (Fig 5.3).
D. Equalization Voltage This is the Equalization Voltage Regulation Set Point. It will be displayed
in Screen 6 (Fig 5.3) under “EQU”.
E. Equalization Time The charging at the selected Equalization Voltage will continue for
this number of hours. This is displayed in Screen 6 of the LCD Display
(Fig. 5.3) under “EQU-T”.
F. Equalization Interval Automatic equalization is enabled (with DIP Switch 5). Equalizations
are typically done once a month. Most of the cycles are 28 days so
equalization will begin on the same day of the month. Each new cycle
will be reset as equalization starts so that setting day period will be
maintained. This is displayed in Screen 6 of the LCD Display (Fig. 5.3)
under “CYCLE”.
Equalization Procedure
Note: Please read background information on equalization on page 27 and
Equalization Charging Algorithm on page 29.
Standard Equalization Programs
Both automatic and manual equalizations can be performed using the standard
charging programs (Table 6.1).
Manual Equalization
SCC-30AB is shipped with the DIP Switch 5 (Fig 5.2) set for manual equalization (OFF
position). This is to avoid an unexpected or unwanted automatic equalization. In the
Manual Mode, the push button marked “Equalization” (4, Fig 5.1) is used to both start
and stop a manual equalization.
Hold the push button down for 5 seconds to start and 3
seconds to stop an equalization (depending on whether an equalization is in progress or not).
There are no limits to how many times the push button can be used to start and stop
equalizations. Equalizations will be terminated automatically as per the charging
program selected if the push button is not used to manually stop the equalization.
Automatic Equalization
If the equalization DIP Switch 5 (Fig 5.2) is moved to the ON position, equalizations
will begin automatically as per the charging program selected (Table 6.1). Other than
starting, automatic and manual equalizations are the same and follow the standard
charging program selected (Table 6.1). The push button can be used to start and stop
equalizations in both the Manual and Automatic Modes.
