How it Works
The new PD9200 Series
RV Converter/Chargers have our patented Charge Wizard built-in to
provide you with the most advanced RV battery charging system on the
market today. The Charge Wizard is a micro-processor controller that
constantly monitors your RV battery voltage and then automatically
determines which one of four modes of operation is best suited to
recharge or maintain optimum battery condition. The four modes are
BOOST, NORMAL, STORAGE and DESULFATION. The
Converter Status Remote Pendant will show you which mode the converter is operating in.
The Indicator Light on the
Converter Status Remote
Pendant will display the mode of operation as follows:
-
Light ON all of the time Indicates the unit is in the
BOOST MODE and the converter output voltage is 14.4-volts and is in
the process of recharging the battery up to 90% of full charge as fast
as possible. This mode is usually automatically selected after dry
camping
-
Light Blinks Rapidly (from once to many times a second) Indicates the unit
is in the NORMAL MODE and the converter output voltage is
13.6-volts. In this mode, the converter is safely completing the charge
of the RV battery.
-
Light Blinks Slowly (every 6-8 seconds) Indicates the unit is in
the Storage Mode and the converter output voltage has been
lowered to 13.2-volts. In this mode the RV battery is fully charged and
the converter is maintaining the charge, without causing gassing or
water loss.
The Manual
Switch...
The Manual Switch
allows the operator to check to see if the Charge Wizard is operating
properly as follows:
Press and hold the Manual
Switch and shortly the Indicator Light will remain ON all of the
time, indicating the unit went into the BOOST MODE. Continue to hold the
switch and shortly the Indicator Light will start blinking rapidly
(every 2-3 seconds). This indicates the unit went into the NORMAL
MODE. Continue to hold the switch and the unit will go into the
STORAGE MODE, and the Indicator Light will start blinking slowly
(every 6-8 seconds). Once the switch button is released, the Charge
Wizard will again read the RV battery voltage, and after some period of
time, automatically select the proper mode of operation.
The
Desulfation Mode
The DESULFATION MODE
is only active when the Charge Wizard is in the STORAGE MODE.
During this mode a timer in the micro-processor automatically switches
the Charge Wizard to the BOOST MODE for 15-minutes every
21-hours. This higher voltage causes some slight gassing, and mixes up
the battery electrolyte to prevent battery stratification, and the
resulting sulfation of the plates, which is the leading cause of loss of
battery power.
Note: When no 120 VAC
power is applied to the RV through the Shore Power Cord, or Generator,
the Indicator Light will remain "ON" at all times. This indicates that
the Charge Wizard is monitoring the battery voltage.
