BATTERY CHARGING

Keeping your battery bank energized is very important. Although a battery bank can last for many
years if properly cared for, it can also be ruined in a short period of time if neglected.

Battery Charging Set Points

To preserve your batteries, always follow your battery manufacturer’s recommendations using the
following information:
• Absorb Voltage • Float Voltage • Equalize Voltage • Recommended Depth of Discharge (DOD)

Absorb, Float and Equalize voltage set points are programmed using the OutBack MATE.

MAINTENANCE

Please contact OutBack Power Systems Technical Services for any FX repairs due to malfunctions or damage.

For routine, user-approved maintenance:
• Disconnect all circuit breakers and related electrical connections before doing any cleaning or adjustments.
• Solar modules may produce hazardous voltages when exposed to light; cover them with opaque material

before servicing any connected equipment.

• If a remote or automatic generator start system is used, disable the automatic starting circuit and/or disconnect
the generator from its starting battery while servicing it to prevent starting while servicing.
