Battery charging function
A main charging cycle of the house battery is initiated in the following situations:
• After a standstill of the alternator or mains failure
- After falling below the reset voltage of 12.75 V for lead batteries or 13.10 V for LiFePO4 batteries for 30 s

NOTE
In all charging phases (U1 phase to U3 phase), almost the entire possible charger current is available for the additional supply of DC loads without discharging the battery.
The charging characteristics for fully automated continuous operation without monitoring are referred to as modified IU0U characteristics (see charging curve in fig. 6, page 5).
1: Analysis phase
The battery is deeply discharged ( >10% ). The battery charge is analyzed with increasing charging current.
2: I phase (Constant current phase)
At the beginning of the charging process, the empty battery is constantly charged with the maximum charging current (100%). The charging current decreases when the battery has reached a state of charge of 75% (90% for LiFePO4 batteries). Batteries with a voltage of 0 V are charged with reduced charging current until the battery voltage exceeds 9 V. The duration of the I phase depends on the state of the battery, the load from the DC loads and the state of charge. For safety reasons the I phase is terminated after a maximum of 15 h (in case of battery cell defects or similar).
3: U1 phase (Constant voltage phase)
The U1 phase starts when the battery is fully loaded. The charging current is reduced. During the U1 phase, the battery voltage is kept constant at a high level. The duration of the U1 phase depends on the battery type and the depth of discharge.
4: U2 phase (Trickle charging)
The U2 phase serves to maintain the battery capacity (100%). The U2 phase runs at lowered charging voltage and variable current. If DC loads are connected, they are powered by the device. Only if the power required exceeds the capacity of the device is this surplus power provided by the battery. The battery is then discharged until the device re-enters the I phase and charges the battery. The U2 phase is limited to between 24 and 48 h depending on the battery type.
5: U3 phase (Storage charging)
In long-term mains operation, the U3 phase prevents further discharge of the battery (e.g. during long breaks in use, seasonal operation or during winter storage), minimizes battery gassing and prevents plate corrosion.
6: Reconditioning
Twice a week, the charger switches back to the U1 phase for a short time (max. 1 h) in order to revive the battery. This prevents any fatigue phenomena such as sulfation or electrolyte stratification.
Temperature sensor
With the temperature sensor connected, the battery control booster adjusts the charging voltage (for lead batteries) or the charging current (for LiFePO4 batteries) according to the measured temperature at the battery.

NOTE
- For lead batteries: Without temperature sensor connected, the charging voltage is referenced to 20 °C.
- For LiFePO4 batteries: Without temperature sensor connected, the battery control booster does not work.
The charging characteristics are adjusted as follows:
- For lead acid batteries see fig. 7, page 5
- For lead gel batteries see fig. 8, page 5
- For AGM batteries see fig. 9, page 5
- For LiFePO4 batteries (13.9 V) see fig. 10, page 5
- For LiFePO4 batteries (14.2 V) see fig. 11, page 6
- For LiFePO4 batteries (14.4 V) see fig. 12, page 6
- For LiFePO4 batteries (14.6 V) see fig. 13, page 6
