CHARGING TIME (HOURS)
Constant Current Charging
This charging method is not often utilised for valve
regulated lead acid batteries, but is an effective
method for charging a number of series connected
batteries at the same time, and/or as an equalising
charge to correct variances in capacity between
batteries in a series group.
Extreme care is required when charging Powerline
SC with a constant current. If, after the battery has
reached a fully charged state, the charge is
continued at the same rate, for an extended period
of time, severe overcharge may occur, resulting in
damage to the battery. Figure 14 shows a typical
constant current charging circuit; Figure 15 shows
the characteristics of two Powerline SC12-6 under
continuous overcharge conditions.

Two Stage Constant Voltage Charging
Two stage constant voltage charging is a
recommended method for charging valve regulated
lead acid batteries in a short period of time and then
maintaining them in a fully charged float or standby
condition. Figure 16 illustrates the characteristics of a
two stage constant voltage charger.

stage constant voltage charger

CHARGE CURRENT
The characteristics shown in Fig.16 are those of a
constant voltage, current limited charger. In the
initial charging stage, the current flowing into the
battery is limited to a value of 0.30C Amps. The
charging voltage across the battery terminals rises,
during the charging process, to a value equal to the
constant voltage output of the charger, which is set to
2.45 volts per cell. Whilst continuing to charge, in
stage 1 (A-B), at 2.45 volts per cell, the current will
eventually decrease to point "Y", where the value of
this decreasing current is"sensed" causing the circuit
to switch into the second stage (B-C), reducing the
charging voltage from 2.45 volts per cell to a constant
voltage, float/standby, level of 2.3 volts per cell. The
switch to stage two, where the constant voltage level
of 2.3 volts per cell is applied, occurs after the battery
has recovered about 80% of its rated capacity. This is
one of the most efficient charging methods available
as the recharge time is minimized during the initial
stage whilst the battery is protected from overcharge
by the system switching to stage 2 (float/standby)
charge at the switching point"Y".
