Battery Charger Optimate 6 Ampmatic (TecMate) - Charge Maintainer
The new OptiMate 6 ampmaticTM is the charger, maintainer and tester more advanced and versatile in the world suitable for scooters, motorcycles, cars, vans and trucks with batteries up to 240 Ah capacity. Single unit, in a stylish package, rugged and weatherproof, easy to mount on the wall. Once connected, the microprocessor ampmaticTM automatically diagnoses the condition of the battery and sets the charge current and the optimal program. An enhanced version of the program will also automatically desulfation multiphase OptiMateTM an injection of life to many deeply discharged batteries or "death". When charging is complete, the power-saving eco mode ensures ultra low power consumption, while maintaining the battery at an optimal charge, always ready and safe, a month after another, prolonging its life by up to 400%! Operation 1. Initialization: OptiMate 6 monitors to be connected to a battery (= minimum voltage 1.8V). 2. Programming: the ampmatic processor monitors the battery condition to determine the starting point of the program suitable. 3. Desulphation and recovery: if necessary, are applied 2 or 3 stages of high voltage and pulse oscillators to restore the batteries abandoned, discharged (removed from the vehicle) from a state to a state of sulphation rechargeable. 4. Bulk Charge: the ampmatic processor sets and then continually adjusts the constant current optimally for each individual battery according to its evolving electrical characteristics. 5. Control of the short-circuited cells: after 10 minutes the ampmatic processor controls the electrical parameters to verify the presence of a dispersion of power supply due to a shorted cell. 6. Absorption and equalization: for 10 minutes the current is delivered in pulses to cause the voltage to oscillate between 13,7 and 14,3V favoring the equalization of cell voltage. 7. Charge verification: during 5 minutes the voltage is limited at 13,6V while the ampmatic processor monitors the current drawn from the battery. If this check reveals a charge less than optimal, the program reverts to absorption for a further 10 minutes. 8. Charge retention test: when you reach the optimal charge, begins the first dispersion control for battery (and connected system). If the battery passes the first 30 minutes of testing, this is extended up to 12 hours for a result defi nite. If the voltage drops below 12,4V in this period, the extended test is terminated. Test results can be read at a glance on the LED panel for easy reading. The 30 minute tests are repeated hourly until the OptiMate 6 is disconnected, so that the indication of the battery status is continuously updated. 9. Maintenance Charge: during alternating periods of 30 minutes, at a float limit of 13.6V, the battery, is offered the charging current required to keep it with any small connected loads or power leakage and so avoid downloading natural. OptiMate6 can remain connected to the battery indefinitely, the battery will remain in an optimal state and secure. Also will naturally optimal charging. NOTES: included in the package instructions in Italian, battery cable with eyelets (SAE-71) and cable clamps (SAE-74)
