Interfacing Lead Acid batteries with inverter

If you want lead acid batteries to last a long time, it is necessary to not discharge them below about 50% capacity, so you will only get half that capacity. Maximum depth of discharge for long life should be specified in the battery manual. Discharging below that will significantly shorten the life of the battery.

6 Frequently Asked Questions about “Lead-acid battery parameter settings”

What voltage should a lead acid battery be charged to?

The “charged voltage” parameter should be set to 0.2V or 0.3V below the float voltage of the charger. The table below indicates the recommended settings for lead acid batteries. 7.2.3. Discharge floor The “Discharge floor” parameter is used in the "time remaining" calculation.

What if a customer wants to use a lead-acid battery?

Below are the explanation for each parameter, but most importantly, if the customer want to use the lead-acid battery, he must consult with the battery manufacturer to confirm the parameter settings are correct and suitable for that battery. Otherwise, any damages or system not working correctly, we don't take responsibility.

What is the charge efficiency of a lead acid battery?

The charge efficiency of a lead acid battery is almost 100% as long as no gas generation takes place. Gassing means that part of the charge current is not transformed into chemical energy, which is stored in the plates of the battery, but is used to decompose water into oxygen and hydrogen gas (highly explosive!).

How do you store a lead-acid battery?

Lead-acid batteries, which are also commonly used in backup power systems, have a higher self-discharge rate. They should be stored in a cool, dry place and kept at a full charge if they will not be used for an extended period of time. It is also important to check the water level in the battery and add distilled water as needed.

How to switch battery between lithium & lead battery?

Battery Switching functions between lithium and lead battery. The lithium battery is the default setting and switches it to the battery type interface by holding it for 3 seconds. 4. Safety Instructions

How do I set the parameters for full charge?

Set the parameter Cycle time full charge to the full charge cycle time recommended by the battery manufacturer. Set the parameter Cell charge nominal voltage for full charge to the cell voltage setpoint recommended by the battery manufacturer for full charge. The parameters for full charge are set. Set the parameters for equalization charge.
