GENERAL INFORMATION (continued...)
14.4 Volts (Boost Mode)
Returned the battery to 90% of full charge in approximately 8 hours. The battery
reached full charge in approximately 11 hours.
13.6 Volts (Normal Mode)
Required 40 hours to return the battery to 90% of full charge and 78 hours to
reach full charge.
13.2 Volts (Storage Mode)
Required 60 hours to return the battery to 90% of full charge and 100 hours to
reach full charge.
The integrated intelligent microprocessors ability to change the output voltage of the converter will
signicantly reduce the amount of time it takes to recharge your battery. The lower voltage for Storage
mode prevents gassing and reduces water loss during long-term storage.
GENERAL OPERATION
The Kinetik Intelligent Power Converters will supply “clean” nominal 13.6 VDC
(Normal Mode) power from input voltages that range from 90-130 VAC.
The Kinetik Intelligent Power Converters are primarily designed for use with a
battery, however, the output of the Kinetik converters are a regulated, ltered
D.C. voltage that can power sensitive electronics without the need for a battery or
other ltering.
NOTICE
At normal input voltages the full load rated capacity is available. At input voltages
less than 105 VAC the converter may not supply full rated output capacity.
The full rated load is available for load, battery charging or both. When functioning as a regulated
battery charger, the Kinetik converters have a nominal voltage output of 13.6 VDC. The system was
designed to sense voltage on the battery and automatically selects one of 4 operating modes (normal,
boost, storage and desulfation/equalization) to provide the correct charge level to the batteries.
NORMAL MODE: Output voltage set at 13.6 volts DC. This voltage provides
good charging rates and low water usage.
BOOST MODE: If the converter senses that the battery voltage has dropped
below a preset level the output voltage is increased to 14.4 volts DC to rapidly
recharge the batteries.
STORAGE MODE: When the converter senses that there has been no signi-
cant battery usage for approximately 30 hours the output voltage is reduced to
13.2 volts DC for minimal water usage.
DESULFATION/EUALIZATION MODE: When in storage mode the microproces-
sor automatically increases the output voltage to 14.4 volts for 15 minutes every
21 hours to reduce the buildup of sulfation on the battery plates.
