Posted September 19, 20159 yr Hi All Just wanting to check my settings with other Axpert Users: I have the following: Axpert 5Kv 48V 200 ah bank - 2x 48V banks (12 x 4 102ah Lead Acid Batteries each) 2x 300W panels I have following settings: 1 SOL 2 20A 12 48V (default feels to low for me) 13 FUL (don't know what this voltage equates to ???) 16 CSO 26 57.6V (Bulk voltage) 27 54 (Float voltage) 31 Sbe When I want to equalise the bank I then change 26 from 57.6 to 58.4 (the highest I can go???) Your thoughts please... Regards Mark
October 7, 20159 yr Author Hi All I realise everyone is busy but am keen to get the thoughts of other Axpert users??? Thanks Mark
October 7, 20159 yr Author Very little load. More keen to understand other users equalisation process and settings... how do you go about it...
October 7, 20159 yr What type batteries are you using? Most sla types do not require equalisation. But if you do just set the voltage as required when doing a once off equalisation.

I have Lead Calcium 102 ah deep cycle batteries so would like a higher equalisation but use the Axpert Max of 58.4V setting for a charge cycle around the end of each month. Regards Mark
October 8, 20159 yr Author Ok. Does your spec sheet stipulate a particular equalization voltage and time? No... thats the issue... I think I am close except for the upper limit on the Axpert voltage to 58.4... Regards Mark
October 10, 20159 yr Hi Mark I have had a look at your photos again and it looks like your batteries are SLA (sealed-lead acid). In which case you should NOT be applying an equalisation charge. Zeners and battery balancers I am afraid.
